A warrior sharpens his sword by learning from his enemies. Todays lesson includes: 1) First lesson in war is to identify what and how much of what you don't know. Then seek out the knowledge wherever you can ESPECIALLY by watching your enemies. 2) Things your enemy says: a) Can you name silos of knowledge is Peterson drawing from to create the narrative to the interviewers questions (examples: evolutionary psychology, mathematics of network effects, artificial intelligence and neural networks, etc.)? b) How much knowledge is contained in each silo? c) How much do you need to learn in each silo in order to gain operation battlefield level insight? How about strategic species scale war insight? d) What are the correlations between each silo of knowledge? For example, when discussing the political collapse into the religious, what might be the relationship between religious texts to mythological texts to neural network training to human neural network subsystems that handle pattern recognition to external data stimuli sources and who controls those sources? 3) Things your enemy does not say: a) What are the key silos of knowledge that Peterson does not bring up at all? b) WHY does he skip over those silos of knowledge? c) What are the correlations between those silos of knowledge/ 4) The interviewer: a) Is the interviewer the predator in this clip? b) Is the interviewer the prey in this clip? 5) You the viewer: a) Are you the predator watching your prey in the clip? b) Are you the prey watching your predators train their sights on you? c) How can you tell the difference? If you watch enough of this stuff you eventually learn that what is going on in this clip is that every aspect of the human experience is connected. Math is connected to poetry which is connected to art which is connected to .... everything. If you start to learn that the universe the be understood as individual silos of knowledge and if you learn enough of each silo you can start to recognize interesting patterns. One pattern is that as Peterson and the interviewer have the conversation, in your head you should be visualizing little light blips in imaginary giant silos of knowledge when he touches upon math, philosophy, religion, psychology, neuro networks, network effects ... etc, etc. What we are all engaged in is the human level eternal war for survival. It is a grand battle to see which genetic strain will end up dominating the planet. Currently, the Han Chinese are winning this one by a large margin and we are losing because we have no defensive posture, we have no offensive posture, we have no ADVANCED offensive posture and so on. If you watch this clip and your only response is, Peterson is a jew (even if true), then you are little more than cannon fodder in this war. If your response is, I recognize some of what is going on here but things are a little fuzzy, they you are on your way to competence and you need to identify the silos of knowledge you need to gain competence in. If you watch this clip and can pick out the individual silos of knowledge and can start to puzzle out the strategic narrative that Peterson and the interviewer weave, you are starting to get to a minimum level of competence necessary to start to fully engage in this battle. There are many levels beyond basic competence obviously. For example, generalized competence in all silos of knowledge means you can see everything from a 10 000 perspective but you will not have the skills necessary to drill down. If you have extreme levels of competence in a specific silo of knowledge or two, for example, statistical analysis and advanced math degrees you will be able to zoom into a part of the war game but not be able to understand the dynamics of what is going on at a level that will be satisfactory.
