0:12

the paradox of anyone

0:15

who complains about is a hypocrite

0:17

since everyone has been guilty of hypocrisy

0:19

at least once

0:21

heads,

0:24

i i win tails you lose

0:27

double

0:29

standards and hypocrisy the

0:32

topic of today the

0:34

powerful and sneaky self deception mechanism

0:37

which i have touched upon

0:39

in my three part series called self

0:41

deception one or two part three

0:44

i briefly mentioned double standards

0:46

and now we're going to go into some depth on it here

0:51

basically the way it works like this the

0:53

was conscious one is the

0:55

lower ones stage of ego development

0:58

is the more selfish one

1:00

is the more biased one is

1:02

the more double standards one holds

1:06

the more of a hypocrite one is

1:08

so there's a deep connection between hypocrisy

1:12

the and consciousness or

1:15

stages of ego development for

1:18

more on say to vigo development go check out

1:20

my three part series called the nine

1:22

stages of ego development where i explain

1:24

the susan cook reuter model very

1:26

powerful model for your development which

1:29

basically shows you all the stages that you'll

1:31

be going through along the self

1:33

actualization journey it gives you really great

1:36

road map so that you know what to expect

1:40

one of think that i like to do is just i like

1:42

to look at the features of highly developed minds

1:47

what does that entail and also the

1:49

features of less developed selfish

1:52

minds and what that looks like so

1:54

double standards as one of these features which

1:58

is why religious want him there's

2:00

are some of the biggest hypocrites of all time have you

2:02

noticed this this is not

2:04

an accident have you ever wondered

2:06

like why are the most moral

2:08

people the people who the

2:12

cloak themselves in morality

2:15

and speak the most fervently about

2:17

morality why are they some of the biggest

2:19

hypocrites the hypocrisy of religious

2:22

fundamentalists is legendary

2:24

to a comical degree why

2:27

is that well the be explaining

2:29

that basically

2:31

and it all has to do with your level of development

2:35

but see the hypocrisy of religion

2:38

that's the easy case all

2:40

of us pretty much know about that although

2:43

actually have

2:45

the world basically doesn't have the world are religious fundamentalists

2:48

pretty much the level of development

2:51

and i'm their complete hypocrites

2:53

and they hold many many double standards and

2:56

it's really those people who make

2:58

religion look so bad and so unpalatable

3:01

to those hold more developed

3:04

or let's say sprawl the damage stage orange and above

3:06

or more rational scientifically minded more

3:08

skeptical

3:10

the to those people basically

3:13

the lower half mankind makes religion

3:16

look like like some

3:18

sort of force which it

3:20

is in the way that they practice it but

3:22

then the mistake that is made his like wealth then

3:24

you get the idea that all religion is like that and all

3:27

spirituality is like that and of course that's not the case

3:29

we talk about that elsewhere the

3:32

basically double standards

3:34

are selfishness itself

3:38

what does it mean to be selfish it's the have double

3:40

standards they have one

3:42

set of standards that you apply yourself and your

3:45

tribes and then a totally different set of standards

3:47

that you apply to others the

3:51

ego mind always wants to make

3:53

exceptions and excuses for itself

3:56

that's part of its self bias i

3:58

taught lot about bias and so the fbi go

4:00

check out my episodes on bias understanding

4:03

bias and i have another one called self bias

4:05

will be hubbard

4:08

a lotta similar material here but from

4:10

a different perspective so this episode will

4:12

dovetail with those to these are very

4:14

important episodes really more talking about here is bias

4:16

when we're talking about double standards in

4:20

order to develop yourself to high

4:22

levels you must make a commitment to

4:24

truth and intellectual honesty which

4:27

means you have to hold yourself and same

4:29

standards as you hold others you

4:31

have to hold your tribe in

4:33

your group to same standards that you

4:35

hold other tribes and other groups and you

4:38

have to hold your your

4:40

own group and yourself

4:42

to the same standards as

4:44

you do your opponents in your enemies that's

4:47

critical the lot of people

4:50

don't understand this here's

4:52

the definition of hypocrisy from the dictionary

4:56

well the practice of claiming

4:59

to have moral standards or believes to which

5:01

one's own behavior does not conform the

5:04

practice of engaging the same behavior or

5:06

activities for which one criticizes

5:08

another or the practice

5:10

of claimed to have moral standards and

5:14

failing to be what one is not

5:18

the

5:20

so what i want you to see about morality

5:23

is that morality and

5:25

old notions of sadness

5:28

and equality or the

5:30

homily weaponized

5:35

for the purposes of survival the

5:39

get a leg up on others in society

5:42

that's a lot of what morality the

5:44

doing this is a corruption and a misuse

5:47

of morality so

5:53

if you want to practice true morality then

5:58

you have to get rid of all your double stand the all

6:00

your biases as

6:02

a lot harder to do that most of us realize most

6:04

of us don't even understand how

6:06

many double standards we hold these double standards

6:09

are so sneaky and subtle sometimes

6:11

they're kind of crude and gross but a

6:13

lot of times are subtle

6:18

you probably know the gross once you

6:20

probably encounter those but what you haven't

6:23

understood yet is how

6:25

many subtle double standards

6:28

you whole that want to point some of these out to you let's

6:30

go through a list of example of double standards as

6:32

will be a large list let me to to

6:34

me obvious somebody is going to be more subtle a

6:37

warning as i'm going through

6:39

this beware of your own biases

6:41

cause the trick with pointing out of double standards

6:44

that a lot of times people are so deeply entrenched

6:46

in their double standards and by seized that

6:48

they don't even want to admit this

6:50

is a bias or double standard they have in mind

6:53

goes into making rationalizations that excuses

6:55

so as i pointed me that you the

6:58

were be mindful that you may get triggered

7:01

and that your defense mechanisms may that

7:04

set off so your job is

7:06

to not get triggered the talk

7:08

about these and

7:10

to not accuse me of bias for talking

7:12

about your biases of the see that's another common defense

7:15

mechanism as soon as i bring up a double standard

7:17

the mind automatically goes into sort of

7:19

an attack mode defense mode

7:21

counterattack mode maybe might say it

7:24

can sorta do all sorts of what about his arms

7:26

and justifications rationalizations stuff

7:29

like that so to be wearable that oh

7:32

here's the long list i've been

7:34

thinking about this list for for

7:36

months compiling this list

7:40

in no particular order here we go the

7:43

able to milan is psychedelic

7:46

star dangerous and harmful that's what society tells

7:48

us then

7:50

what about alcohol what about

7:53

tobacco alcohol

7:55

is actually what are the most

7:57

deadly drugs there is and most people don't

7:59

then consider alcohol to be a drug what

8:02

kind of double standard is this alcohol

8:06

is way more socially dangerous

8:08

and damaging the psychedelic

8:11

and yet the way the psychedelic for treated and demonized

8:17

and alcohol doesn't have any spiritual real

8:20

the spiritual applications whereas

8:23

the i mean it's mostly just it for entertainment partying

8:26

and letting loose what psychedelic can

8:29

be used for parting entertainment but then they also have

8:31

incredible profound spiritual applications

8:35

and yet their demonize more than alcohol that's

8:38

one double standards we find your occurs

8:40

sidey another

8:43

one related to psychedelic says the way that many spiritual

8:45

teachers ashley

8:48

hold and talk about psychedelic this

8:51

has been really disappointing to me cause you'd expect spiritual

8:53

teachers and gurus you know to be more conscious

8:55

and aware more developed and therefore to

8:57

have less biases and less double standards but

9:00

you be shocked at how many double standards these

9:02

gurus hold can

9:04

talk with a a straight face about

9:06

how psychedelics do not produce genuine,

9:09

enlightenment or genuine permanent awakenings

9:13

and and

9:16

yet when you apply that same to

9:18

their own workshops retreats

9:21

books videos those

9:24

produce permanent awakenings enlightenment

9:27

snow of

9:29

course not see

9:33

how come if if if you go

9:35

to a ten deva pasta retreat and

9:39

you do that

9:43

you don't go complaining to grew like i

9:45

haven't had my permanent awakening your

9:47

grew wouldn't want your do tell your girl

9:49

will say well that's because it takes years and decades

9:52

of he's a partner streets to have your you

9:54

know your radical awakenings

9:58

so be patient and keep doing it

10:00

initial suits do when they do it for ten twenty years

10:02

they sold on awaken and yet they keep doing it but

10:05

if you go to a girl and talking about a psychedelic

10:08

in the girls or guy you took at once and

10:11

what a do for years did it make you in light

10:13

does it make you all spiritual would wise

10:17

well maybe it didn't in this one trip

10:20

but you know one session of meditation

10:22

one meditation treats is also my going to do

10:24

much for you so you gotta be comparing

10:27

apples to apples here the

10:30

this is a gross double standard if

10:34

you took the as

10:36

many psychedelic the

10:39

as many hours as you meditated

10:43

as your buddhist for

10:46

example guru

10:49

suggests that you meditate in a like

10:51

for ten years we're not let's say one hour a day

10:54

every day for ten years

10:56

near that would be a typical regimen

10:59

that your buddhist guru might suggest for

11:01

you maybe longer

11:05

if you didn't psychedelic for that long since

11:07

this is this ah

11:10

a hook where would you be with your spiritual

11:12

development

11:15

the go to the data that way the group said like all would

11:17

you take your psychedelic once yeah but

11:19

if you meditate for an hour once what is it

11:22

was meditating for our wanted to do anything for

11:24

you course moving

11:27

on from scientific once

11:29

i like to criticize science and point out the double standard

11:31

the slicer some really gross double standard

11:33

than science and see this is tricky

11:35

because it's

11:38

easy to see the double standards in religion a lot of times

11:40

lot harder to admit them we

11:43

had fires although they exists

11:45

almost as much for

11:48

example science criticize religion for all

11:50

the contradictions getting things

11:52

wrong and making mistakes you know factual

11:54

errors in the bible and so forth and

11:57

yet have you noticed that no amount

11:59

find to the mistakes of which there

12:02

are thousands the

12:04

history of size is riddled with thousands

12:06

of mistakes that scientists have made but

12:09

yet why is that that not a single

12:12

that that not none of these mistakes

12:14

ever are capable of invalidating

12:16

the scientific method

12:19

the

12:21

yeah

12:22

if an atheist or skeptic

12:24

or rationalist recite the spines one

12:26

single contradiction in the bible then

12:29

they say well to hell with the bible it can't be

12:31

true

12:34

that's the standard that they hold religion

12:36

too but it

12:38

you hold size that same standard then

12:41

you should throw out all size

12:46

given how many mistakes science has made

12:48

how can you ever be so naive

12:51

as to trust

12:53

scientific conclusions

12:56

and yet you do

12:58

and yet no matter how many mistakes sides

13:00

makes you still trust

13:02

and science why is that

13:06

the admit that gross double standard to yourself

13:11

there's no one from science science demands

13:13

proof for everything and

13:16

yet where is the proof that everything

13:18

true in the universe can be found using

13:20

the scientific method

13:22

has that ever been proven

13:24

course not then why

13:26

do you assume that that's true why

13:29

do you take that as a given why do you take

13:31

that as scientific

13:35

we talked a lot about these why

13:38

did it issues in a lot more depth in my series

13:40

three part series called deconstructing

13:42

them as a science part one part two parts result

13:45

if you're interested in more detail about that

13:47

someone go into it here i'll go check

13:49

out that series i've talked about science a lot your

13:52

home and from science science criticize

13:55

religion when religion has defended

13:57

on utilitarian grounds and yet

14:02

when you corners a scientists

14:04

on this issue of truth whether size is really

14:06

true or not scientists

14:09

went back to do this quarter will justify size

14:11

and defend science based on

14:14

utilitarian grounds so

14:17

what does this mean this

14:19

means you know like if

14:21

you're arguing with a religious person and

14:24

if you know you back into a corner with your arguments

14:27

that eventually religious person might say well yeah

14:30

you know maybe religion isn't all the

14:32

are technically true and accurate

14:35

maybe not really objective but the

14:38

impact it has a my life you know it makes me a moral person

14:40

makes me a better person all these positive

14:42

impact that it has on my life you know like it practical

14:46

religion isn't just theory it's you know it's practical

14:49

the way they interact with people the were to care

14:51

my children the way i think about

14:53

my enemies and how i regard

14:55

them it's all this kinda stuff at that practical that

14:58

that makes me feel good that improves my the quality

15:00

of my life therefore we

15:02

shouldn't throw out religion see that's the kind of

15:04

argument that a religious person would make would back into

15:06

quarters knelt as an atheist or scientific

15:08

person you say well but but

15:11

what about the truth of the matter you know

15:13

like

15:14

who cares whether it's practical

15:17

or weather's useful to you just cause it makes you feel

15:19

the doesn't mean that it's true

15:21

and so you

15:23

had a shifting the goal posts here when

15:25

back into a corner because really the issue

15:27

was about the truth what

15:30

are you know whether god exists we want that like we want

15:32

to know that's true we don't care how

15:34

you feel about how makes you feel for makes you better

15:36

person's we want to know that's actually true

15:38

well

15:39

when you're already with the fight as the same exact situation

15:41

arises what the scientists

15:43

take a blind eye to you take an

15:45

atheist or scientists and

15:48

then you you for to question him about the truth of science

15:50

and you can question i'm deeply not to eventually to the

15:52

point where you back them into a quarter and

15:55

they will be forced to admit that will leo know but

15:57

in science technically speaking science doesn't

15:59

say anything about the actually true science

16:01

is just purely utilitarian pragmatic the

16:04

reason sizes valuables because it can lead a man on

16:06

the moon and because we can build a computer

16:08

not because it's truly metaphysical sense

16:11

so even a fighter that metaphysically truth

16:13

is still the best thing we've got because it's so useful

16:16

for making our lives more

16:18

comfortable essentially that's your

16:20

defense of son

16:21

the but

16:23

when you do this your employing

16:26

the exact same defenses a religious person

16:28

in

16:32

your starting this issue of truth and he can't

16:34

really defend that that issue of true the

16:38

question deeply enough but

16:40

see when a scientific person or atheists does this

16:43

that considered okay it's

16:46

considered okay to justify signs on utilitarian

16:49

grounds it's never

16:51

going to be acceptable to justify religion on utilitarian

16:54

that's

16:57

a gross double standard

16:58

i'm

17:01

aware of that the

17:04

next one is that science criticize religion

17:07

for appeals to authority and yet most

17:09

of science the hinges on appeal

17:11

to authority when

17:13

you argue with scientifically minded people and

17:15

atheists and so forth most of

17:17

these arguments devolve into appeals

17:20

into authority they make appeals to authority

17:22

einstein said this and quantum mechanics

17:25

as that and my physics professor

17:27

said this and this you know big name

17:30

professor an intellectual said that

17:33

these are all appeals to authority

17:35

and

17:38

yet

17:39

leave

17:42

appeal to authority are considered okay whereas

17:44

the religious appeals to authority are not considered okay

17:47

another

17:51

one is size criticize religion

17:53

for being circular but

17:55

all the fundamental properties of science are also

17:58

circular the example

18:01

a fighter micro size

18:03

religious person for saying something like

18:05

well i believe

18:07

in the bible because the bible is the word god and

18:11

how do i know that the bible is the word

18:13

of god could the bible says that will us circular

18:15

reasoning but

18:19

if you take a look at all the fundamental properties of

18:21

science you know what is energy

18:23

what does matter what is mass

18:25

what is velocity what is distance

18:27

what is time all of these are

18:30

circularly inter define in terms of themselves

18:33

science

18:35

does not give you any kind of ground

18:38

for any of these fundamental properties they

18:40

don't tell you what anything is it until you what energy

18:42

is what matters what time is would

18:44

distances what

18:47

the we know what charge is

18:49

none of these are properly

18:52

defined are grounded a thing is just an endless

18:54

circle no interviews

18:56

despite in terms of mass and acceleration

18:59

and distance and time in and time is divided

19:01

terms of distances and velocities

19:05

and then i'm in energy is gonna be defined

19:07

be defined of something else is all defines

19:09

as it it's it's pointers pointing around to

19:11

pointers it's a game of telephone and

19:14

yet that's perfectly acceptable within

19:16

sight just use

19:19

the way

19:19

another

19:23

one science ridiculed the notion

19:25

of god on the grounds that it's the

19:27

magical thing that cannot be explained

19:30

and has no cause and

19:33

yet the universe

19:35

as a whole or the big bang exactly

19:38

the same position though

19:40

somehow it's okay for aside

19:43

to say that the entire universe came out of nowhere

19:45

for no reason whatsoever fourteen

19:47

billion years ago somehow that's okay but

19:50

the say that the entire universe came from

19:52

god that's not okay

19:58

the ridiculous

20:01

or another one scientists talk

20:03

about being rational objective

20:07

like up their ideal the know treat

20:09

everything objective li and yet the

20:11

scientists themselves don't behave objective

20:13

li in their own life for

20:16

example according to science

20:21

there's no reason why

20:24

there's anything wrong with your daughter being raped according

20:28

to science because according to science

20:30

there's no moral judgment between

20:33

pained vs not pain between

20:35

suffering and happiness blinds

20:37

didn't make any claims about these things there's

20:39

no scientific proof or reason for why

20:41

suffering is wrong or bad and

20:45

yet when the scientists

20:47

behaves and goes about living his life

20:50

he's completely consumed by survival and the voice

20:52

of suffering and pain and he doesn't

20:54

treat these things as equivalent to

20:56

pleasure and other things he treats

20:58

them as bad and wrong and evil the

21:01

whole emotional system reacts in that way

21:04

which is a complete double standard so

21:08

how are you being objective for example as a scientist

21:12

why do you value your life above the

21:14

lives of you're

21:16

hungry children in africa if

21:20

you were a true side as if you truly rational

21:22

objective you would not valued your life any higher

21:24

than theirs what you do

21:28

because actually you're very biased you're

21:30

scared the run by fear

21:32

and survival sexual

21:34

cravings and all these sorts of things you know it's

21:36

as a site is why would you want to have sex with

21:40

the hot woman versus

21:42

you know a fat ugly woman the

21:45

scientists if you're male photos it

21:48

shouldn't matter to you if you were truly scientific

21:51

what you're not and

21:55

in your mind you create the separation between schools

21:57

are doing my sides what i'm in a laboratory that what i what

21:59

accountable laboratory really i'm just a normal human

22:06

yeah the

22:08

what you see your

22:10

humanity and your science can't

22:13

be so cleanly separated

22:16

the you like

22:18

the

22:20

that the double standard of positivism positive

22:23

says the only things that should be admissible

22:26

with him signs are strictly empirical fruits

22:29

no metaphysical mumbo jumbo know

22:31

philosophy know abstractions just

22:34

strict

22:35

objective facts

22:37

that's true

22:39

but then what is the status

22:41

of positivism itself of that position father

22:45

in his positivism itself

22:47

the position that only

22:50

strictly empirical truths to beat it miss

22:52

more than five that itself is not a strictly

22:54

pure whole truth how

22:57

do you know that's true

23:01

that's not an objective fact you find out the

23:03

world that's something that's an abstraction

23:06

it's a philosophical scheme that you have

23:08

invented so

23:10

you make an exception for your philosophical schemes

23:13

and your metaphysics

23:15

but

23:16

you denounce all other metaphysical

23:19

an epistemic schemes how come

23:21

the that a double standard how

23:24

bout with rationality rationalist

23:26

love to talk about sacks over feelings

23:31

the be very so called rational people

23:33

they get very emotional and triggered by

23:36

irrationality why religious

23:38

fundamentalism by new age people

23:42

look at some of these debates on you tube my

23:44

so called rationalist people with

23:46

religious people they get very very triggered

23:50

the get very emotional they acted

23:52

very irrational ways and yet

23:54

they claim to be rational

23:56

and to be holding facts

23:58

over feelings

24:00

wouldn't bat

24:01

their entire rationality is grounded

24:03

in feelings

24:05

the back

24:07

about would skeptics skeptics like

24:09

to take the attitude that everything should be doubted

24:13

if everything should be doubted what about

24:15

your skepticism

24:18

why don't we doubt that

24:20

except most skeptics really

24:23

serious the whole a double standard and so say

24:25

excuse their own skepticism from

24:28

they're skepticism

24:30

therefore they never end up doubting their

24:32

skepticism then they get stuck

24:35

in this kind of shallow false skepticism

24:38

which i talked about of my absolute called for

24:41

vs true skepticism

24:45

how about this one with terrorism there's

24:47

a lot of double standards when it comes to tears first

24:49

of all the way that labels used a

24:52

lot of times specially like white

24:54

americans will only use the word terrorist

24:57

for a brown muslim or

25:00

a foreigner they won't apply that

25:02

label to a white person who commit a terrorist

25:04

attack like a domestic

25:06

terrorist they don't consider

25:08

those people through terrorists

25:11

that the double standard the

25:13

really terrorism just means somebody

25:15

executing a while with attacks

25:18

towards some sort of political agenda that's

25:20

really all terrorism is is it has nothing to do with

25:22

your race or your religion

25:26

but people hold multiple things about that another

25:29

one of the nine a double standard when it comes to terrorism

25:31

is people get very outraged when

25:33

a few thousand people died a terrorist attack

25:35

in all my god we have to spend trillions of dollars

25:39

the decades chasing down these

25:41

terrorists and preventing

25:43

us from ever happening again but that when a few

25:45

thousand people every year die from

25:47

lack of healthcare nobody

25:50

raises an eyebrow over this the

25:54

gross doubles dead and

25:58

in fact the biggest problem with the way that

26:00

america specially treats terrorism

26:03

is you know the

26:08

we have so outraged and emotional

26:10

over terrorist attacks then

26:13

we let thousands and even hundreds

26:15

of thousands of people die

26:18

from

26:19

lack of resources infested into

26:21

education into

26:24

drug rehabilitation into proper

26:26

prisons and prison reform the

26:29

into healthcare in

26:32

other sorts of safety nets people

26:35

die from poverty and disease and all this is sockets

26:37

could easily been six you know if we took

26:40

lead couple a trillion dollars that

26:42

we invested into the war

26:45

in iraq and afghanistan and

26:47

we threw that into education healthcare

26:50

poverty drug rehab

26:52

clinics improvement of prisons

26:55

rehabilitation centers and so forth we

26:57

could have saved like probably a

26:59

million lives over a period

27:02

and twenty years

27:06

we were so emotionally

27:09

triggered by nine eleven which

27:13

was only like three thousand deaths are so

27:15

regrettable of course terrific of course

27:18

that just recovered in

27:21

last couple years we've lost

27:24

like what

27:26

hundreds of thousands a million people to

27:29

from coven that

27:31

could have easily been prevented if we just and vessel

27:34

that more money into the disease

27:36

prevention pandemic prevention unit the government

27:38

had a whole center set up the

27:40

whole programs for you know very rapid

27:45

you know contact tracing

27:47

and vaccine doubles kind of stuff

27:49

and then did this was defined it it

27:52

doesn't cost lot of you know it's just for like

27:54

ten billion dollars though

27:56

it costs to properly help you know preventative

27:59

pandemic

28:00

preparedness

28:02

and yet we're so distracted facing terrorist

28:05

because a three thousand people who died on nine eleven though

28:08

we completely take our our

28:10

i often what's really important of if what's

28:12

really important as human suffering

28:14

damn

28:16

save lives and improve people's lives than

28:18

our resources should be allocated towards

28:22

totally different areas than chasing down

28:24

terrorists

28:29

and then the whole notion of what is a terrorist this

28:31

is also very relative does love double standards

28:33

they are you know one person's terrorists as a

28:35

say that person's freedom fighter also

28:47

americans for example never consider

28:49

their own

28:52

military attacks as acts of terrorism

28:57

so when drone strike kill some civilian

28:59

casualties of the middle east the

29:03

middle easterners that can look like a terrorist act

29:05

is really indistinguishable from a terrorist act

29:07

mean what's the difference between suicide

29:10

bomber walking into a cafe and blowing up

29:13

in a twenty people versus

29:15

a drone strike blowing up

29:19

the wrong building and blowing up the

29:23

the family of twenty innocent

29:26

civilians no course

29:28

there are differences there there's a different of into the

29:30

difference of intention and so forth but ultimately

29:33

to the people getting killed there's not that much of a difference

29:36

in a even if even if you blow up a

29:38

civilian building with good intentions the

29:40

drone strike even here tensions were good you're

29:44

still basically committing an act of terror

29:46

those people the are terrorizing

29:49

people those drones and i'm

29:51

the civilian casualty rates on drones

29:53

have been reported to be as high as ninety percent

29:56

i mean that's insane if you think about

30:00

the who knows what the true number is really you're

30:02

never going to notice it's too

30:04

embarrassing for the pentagon or the military

30:07

to release those numbers i mean they probably know

30:09

or or maybe even they don't know cause to them

30:11

if they actually knew you'd probably be so

30:14

terrific that they could even live with them so

30:16

they can sleep with you know at night if they knew those

30:19

numbers so maybe even they don't know i don't know really

30:22

knows what the numbers are but it's been estimated to

30:24

be as bad as ninety percent civilian casualties

30:26

from drone strikes that's pretty awful

30:29

so who are the real terrorists here receipts

30:32

americans never applied illegal terrorism to themselves

30:35

that's a gross double standard if we're truly

30:37

honest intellectually we

30:39

would the whole some of our own terrorists

30:42

but we don't too

30:44

politically incorrect

30:48

during another double standard people

30:50

want to criticize leaders

30:52

and politicians for their sexual indiscretions

30:56

and scandals but

30:58

what about your sexual indiscretions the scandals

31:01

what about the sexual manipulations that you engagement

31:05

people just completely excuse those it's like when

31:07

a politician love sex that's

31:10

somehow awful despicable

31:12

and immoral and yet we

31:14

all have sex we all

31:16

manipulate to get sick

31:22

how about the double standard of post modernism

31:24

called the performative contradiction the

31:27

post modernism insists that all

31:29

value systems are relative and therefore

31:31

known should be privileged over any other

31:34

no one culture is no better

31:37

than our culture one set of values

31:39

know better those that are value and

31:41

yet then post modernism

31:43

likes to impose itself as sort of the

31:46

the pinnacle of all value systems

31:48

and then it tries to impose

31:51

relative of relativity onto

31:53

everybody else which

31:56

is the performative contradiction as a double

31:58

standard and

32:00

see if the post monitors was

32:03

truly consistent than it would allow

32:07

other cultures

32:09

and people's

32:12

who do not believe in post modernism

32:15

their own

32:18

worldview that is not post modernist

32:20

that's not usually what post modernists

32:25

i thought you we how they behave usually post

32:27

modernism com's sort

32:29

of for the normative

32:31

expectation that everyone

32:33

can adopt post modernism and agree with

32:35

the truth of post modernism

32:39

the whole point of post modernism is that not everybody can

32:41

agree with through the post modernism because

32:44

people have their own truth that's

32:46

basically what post modernism says though

32:49

if i have my own truth than why can't my

32:51

truth negate postmodernism the

32:53

see posts monitor the like that

33:00

another example is a well really

33:02

it's whole class of examples that honestly

33:04

there's no better source of examples for double

33:06

standards than right wing media fox

33:10

news oh yeah breitbart

33:14

the you tube or like ben shapiro

33:17

stephen crowder

33:20

turning points usa charlie

33:22

kurth the whole mag movements

33:25

or jordan peterson all of this this

33:27

this right wing media is just

33:29

still just it's rife

33:31

with so many double standards i mean it's it's

33:33

comical and

33:35

if amazing that these guys

33:37

don't see their own double standards because

33:40

they really believe when

33:42

you're criticizing laughter so forth they

33:44

really believe that enough at they're

33:47

being intellectually honest they're really not the

33:49

right wing and subjectively guilty of more

33:52

buys that hypocrisy the

33:54

left that now be

33:56

careful here that doesn't mean that the left

33:58

is free of

33:59

double standards the left certainly

34:02

has double standards but rest of the time double

34:04

standards i'll be pointing some of those out to you

34:06

as we keep going but just

34:09

if you're honest if you inspect the whole

34:11

field and both sides of your honest you'll see

34:13

that there's objectively more double standards

34:16

and hypocrisy on the right

34:18

the

34:19

that's one of the reasons why i've cleaned in

34:21

the past and i continue to claim that them

34:23

right

34:25

on the whole

34:26

less psychologically

34:29

developed less morally developed less

34:31

spiritually developed than were when

34:35

right wingers hear that of course they accuse

34:37

me of being biased and me having double standards

34:39

but

34:42

it just is what it is i don't know how to convince

34:44

your this i mean i give you a lot of examples

34:47

of examples of wing

34:48

double standards are so many of the for example

34:51

jordan peterson the only reason complains

34:54

about the dangers of marxism communism

34:57

the whole didn't one of the greatest danger of right now

34:59

in modern times you know the

35:02

left the enemy stage green

35:04

going overboard and and going in or and

35:06

committing that the atrocities of communism

35:08

all over again that's like one of

35:10

the greatest fears and he talks about that a lot

35:14

and yet the reality over the last

35:17

few years with the mag movement is

35:19

that nationalist neo nazis

35:22

and old for right wingers were nearly

35:25

able to pull off a coup of the united

35:27

states government and

35:29

com

35:30

at all and his allies and supporters of which

35:33

jordan peterson peterson is basically one of

35:35

them he said he would vote for trump

35:38

over hillary

35:40

given

35:42

that given that enemy

35:45

do when we we know about the coup

35:47

that the trump administration has you know

35:49

tried to pull off

35:51

like

35:52

that would have been the an

35:55

eruption in democracy the united states

35:57

has had two hundred and fifty years

35:59

pretty much in old of other city

36:02

continuation to max it out loud you the first interruption

36:04

in two hundred years

36:06

democracy

36:08

that's the guy the jordan peterson would vote for

36:15

i don't know i don't know if you drop from again knowing

36:18

of the know that would you go from again i'm

36:20

sort of tennessee he probably would have

36:22

to find some excuses for why you know biden

36:24

as evil or something but something

36:26

but considering this all

36:29

of the complainer juri peters does about marriage

36:31

has been communism when the true

36:34

honest threat is the coup that actually happened

36:36

rights you killed with fantasies about house

36:38

or college kids are gonna be some socialists

36:41

and going to turn into the the us into some sort

36:43

of soviet i'm art

36:45

style government you

36:47

know a decade from now you couldn't have the disease

36:49

about that kind of danger and maybe there's a small

36:52

chance of that

36:53

the reality the real danger is

36:55

that

36:56

the right wing in this country having run

36:58

amok with the mega movement who peterson

37:01

would have voted for the and

37:03

trump himself try to

37:06

they do

37:09

and are still in the process

37:11

of undermining vote counting

37:15

the undermining integrity of of elections

37:17

getting people to doubt in a terrible it's this

37:20

is directly corroded

37:22

democracy if anything is going to destroy

37:24

american government realistically is not gonna

37:26

be summed group of college

37:28

kid marxists or

37:30

trans people

37:32

these people have no power

37:37

what the also right wing with little

37:39

led led by trump and steve bannon and

37:42

the demagoguery that comes from

37:44

that

37:44

that

37:49

is a realistic danger that

37:51

could truly and democracy

37:54

and yet

37:56

nothing from jordan peterson on this

37:59

sure he'll he'll admit that you know trump isn't

38:02

so great and from has its problems still admit

38:04

that but no no no is that the trump has

38:06

problems that's not the issue use

38:08

the issue here is that he execute

38:10

a fucking cool and almost ended two

38:12

hundred years of democracy that's

38:15

a little thing

38:16

jordan

38:20

peterson was truly honest with himself

38:23

about the double standards he

38:25

would realize that

38:27

the standard he places on the left for

38:29

the dangers of the left vs what he places

38:31

on the right are completely

38:34

this honest

38:35

the completely out of balance skewed

38:38

by his perspective on reality meaning

38:40

that he would have to change his perspective on reality

38:42

in order to correct that balance was exactly

38:44

what he will not do

38:50

of course fox news is a great source

38:52

of double standards just gross ridiculous

38:54

double standards the pair of fox's

38:57

is covered for example of obama

38:59

when he was in office

39:00

they were complaining that obama was dividing the country

39:03

and being racial he was racialized

39:05

thing the politics in this country

39:08

i mean compared to what trump did

39:12

why are they complaining about trump dividing

39:15

the country racial

39:18

i think the country

39:21

the amount of

39:23

racial a tax on

39:26

jewish people on black people on

39:28

asian americans

39:30

sky rocket entrepreneur

39:36

the amount of a neo nazi

39:38

activity sky rocketing

39:40

for babies are well documented objective facts

39:42

reported by the f b i other government agencies

39:47

none of this happened under obama if

39:49

you were to actually honest you actually admit that trump

39:52

is the one who's dividing the country and who's being

39:54

ritual they

39:57

also criticized of all for being undignified

40:00

for wearing a tan suits from putting

40:02

mustard on his burger i mean

40:04

compared slump obama is obama fucking

40:06

seats fucking terms of dignity

40:09

morality

40:11

family values

40:13

i mean it's absurd

40:16

trump is like a she is a serial cheater

40:19

the are divorced three times remarried

40:21

three times has children out

40:24

of wedlock all kinds of stuff

40:25

obama

40:29

a family man royal family

40:31

man no sign

40:33

of cheating sex scandals

40:35

the

40:38

fox news was truly honest and

40:41

fair and balanced the didn't have

40:43

double standards than they would be criticizing

40:45

trip over the stuff not obama the

40:49

ten suit fiasco is

40:51

particularly amusing because

40:53

actually there's a

40:55

video of ronald reagan wearing

40:57

a tan suit ronald reagan

40:59

you know fox news people love ronald

41:02

reagan he's like their hero

41:04

so why didn't they criticize ronald reagan for

41:06

his ten suit but they criticized obama

41:08

for wearing of it's as if obama was the first

41:11

president were fucking ten suit seat

41:14

ridiculous double standards why

41:18

fox news can be taken seriously

41:23

conservatives on states' rights issues

41:25

also gross double standards

41:27

so when it's

41:31

an issue like abortion you know they want to throw

41:33

that to states' rights and almost states

41:35

should have the rights to decide for themselves

41:37

but

41:40

in a lot of conservatives when the idea

41:42

of the all like if we ban abortion

41:45

the i mean like

41:46

we

41:48

if we open a overturn roe v

41:50

wade

41:51

and then we propose in

41:53

, a law that will ban abortion at

41:56

the federal level federal lot of conserves will be

41:58

for that so they throw away states as

42:00

soon as it's convenient for them because they just want

42:02

to ban abortion everywhere

42:03

they don't really care about states rights

42:06

it is you that of an excuse gross double

42:08

standard

42:11

and then you know

42:14

there are a lot of other issues when

42:17

it comes to say it's rights were served as would object

42:19

for example if we talk about legalizing

42:22

all drugs

42:24

sir does would usually be against that then

42:27

you know a progressive my say well how about

42:29

we do states rights every state whatever

42:32

states was you know let's say california wants to legalize

42:34

heroin why can't they do that feel

42:36

states' rights

42:37

the conservative would say no

42:40

there were like

42:43

made maybe if you conservatives would would go

42:45

something a libertarian might say well yeah they

42:47

do have that right but most conservatives would

42:49

not go that far they would not

42:51

say that california has a right to legalize heroin or

42:53

psychedelic or whatever

42:56

you believe in states' rights

42:59

why should hair would be bad at the federal level

43:02

why should we be banned at the federal level why

43:04

should psychedelic be bandit the federal level if

43:06

you truly believe in states' rights

43:08

and

43:10

one other issues like that which you know concert

43:12

as like to say they like states' rights but actually

43:15

if their agenda is passer the federal

43:17

level but they'll take it and

43:19

know love it and they want raise

43:23

any issue about

43:25

states rights any

43:27

i would you want as you want your laws passed

43:29

across the whole country

43:32

the don't really care about states rights

43:34

the only care about it

43:35

when you can use it as a weapon to prevent

43:38

the other side's laws from seeing past

43:40

the federal level

43:43

another one that conservatives are guilty

43:45

of is the double standard of complaining

43:47

about welfare queens but

43:50

then if conservative loses his job

43:53

the get unemployment and then you gonna complain

43:55

about his

43:56

inadequate unemployment check and was my own

43:58

point to check so low

44:00

see what he can sort of getting an unemployment check he doesn't

44:03

consider himself on welfare queen

44:06

but like what a black person getting

44:09

it

44:10

or a

44:11

non-conservative is getting it that all the sudden

44:14

their their welfare queens and their leeching off the government

44:16

but conservatives have no problem leeching

44:18

off the government, when it it benefits they're

44:20

not principal dot this at at all

44:22

conservative business

44:24

owners, will readily apply for subsidies

44:27

and tax breaks to leech off the government

44:31

them corporate welfare is totally

44:33

fine and you'll be complain about welfare

44:35

queens

44:40

i'm also can sort of what love to criticize

44:42

government handouts then

44:45

they take them

44:46

when they're in need if we

44:48

iran's the libertarian out

44:51

of libertarianism basically iran if

44:54

she's very very critical of of government

44:56

handouts and then later in life he

44:59

got the government subsidies

45:02

and support

45:04

when she couldn't afford it favors off in her

45:06

retired

45:09

double standard

45:11

how about conservatives

45:13

are protesting there

45:15

is lots of criticised protesters

45:18

like a lot to criticized for example

45:20

the com cabernet gotta fell players

45:22

who are and kneeling peacefully so

45:24

what a ballplayer niels peacefully to

45:26

protest in a whatever racial

45:28

injustice

45:30

that's that's very disrespectful

45:32

that disrespect the country the flag

45:35

the nfl at all sorts of stuff so do

45:37

not allowed to do that okay

45:40

then when those people protest

45:43

outside of football stadium on

45:46

the streets they're also not

45:48

allowed to do that don't you not allowed to real

45:51

concerns will criticize people

45:53

protesting racial justice on the streets

45:55

that's also bad

45:57

mm

45:59

like blm it'll

46:02

stage was a riot somewhere and

46:04

actually the violence

46:06

or destroy property well that's

46:08

outrageous to that's also allowed so

46:11

so how are you allowed to protest

46:13

you're not allowed to protest violently you

46:15

don't allowed to process in the streets you're allowed to

46:18

protest peacefully by taking a knee on looked

46:20

on a football stadium so in essence

46:22

you're not allowed to protest

46:23

the constitution guarantees

46:26

us citizens the right to protest

46:31

those double standard and then of course when

46:33

conservative the protesting winner staging

46:35

some sort of rally like unite the

46:37

right rally charlottesville

46:39

rally

46:41

you know for the kkk rally

46:43

or whatever that's okay

46:45

they get permits for those

46:47

and then they get upset with or denied their permits

46:52

the really they're just for

46:55

protesting when of their side

46:58

and against processing when it's not their site

47:01

the double standard

47:06

how about i'm on fracking

47:09

i read a news story some years ago

47:12

about i'm like a wealthy

47:15

republican

47:17

advocate for fracking

47:18

there's like a business owner and use advocating

47:21

for the safety of fracking and for fracking is

47:23

good and all that kind of stuff but then when

47:26

fracking when some company came to

47:28

do fracking his small town

47:30

that he lived in

47:32

in his backyard basically he

47:35

filed a lawsuit against them and winter

47:37

this whole big court trial

47:40

stop them from from fracking in his backyard

47:43

the it's this kind of double standards

47:47

that were talking about

47:50

the out with religion

47:52

like most religious fundamentalists

47:54

take their holy book and their scriptures

47:57

on faith as true

47:59

everything in the koran is through everything the bible

48:02

is true

48:03

and so on but

48:06

the begin to take your holy book on on faith

48:08

why don't you take other holy books on face

48:11

and afford them the

48:13

same credence and

48:15

benefit of the doubt that you afford the bible

48:18

though

48:19

christian will take the bible on faith but

48:21

then the koran not why and

48:25

vice versa a muslim will take that crown

48:27

on faith but perhaps

48:30

not the bible or not some buddhist

48:32

text

48:33

for some hindu texts why not

48:37

have you growth double standard

48:42

here's another example you criticize

48:45

aggressive moves by other countries against

48:47

your country that

48:50

you don't criticize the aggressive moves of your

48:52

country

48:54

the classic ones

48:57

classic double standards that com especially with nationalism

49:00

if you're nationalist then you can

49:02

be very guilty of this you're

49:05

gonna see the aggressions of your country as just defensive

49:07

maneuvers and then you to see

49:09

the aggressions of other countries as

49:12

evil address in other evil aggressors

49:17

another one is people are outraged

49:19

when other countries interfere with their

49:22

countries election system and undermine

49:24

their democracy but not when

49:26

your country does the same to other

49:28

countries so

49:31

when americans are undermining democracy all

49:33

around the world in russia in the middle east

49:35

and in latin america

49:38

no one cares

49:39

that's all fine but then when when russia is

49:41

undermining and meddling in in our elections

49:44

here now we're all outraged about it

49:49

how about when it comes to wars the know like

49:52

russia invading ukraine that's an

49:54

evil war of aggression the

49:56

us invading iraq well

49:59

we're liberating

49:59

and we're defending the world from terrorists

50:05

the pastor is double standard

50:08

and that ruins america's credibility

50:10

around the world the if the

50:12

us did not invade iraq

50:17

then now when who

50:19

invaded ukraine we would have a lot

50:21

more moral

50:24

standing and credibility

50:27

we don't we sacrifice

50:30

that

50:31

manning around

50:36

about this double standard nationalists

50:38

and evangelicals are outraged when

50:40

muslims want sharia law which

50:42

is basically they want

50:45

the accuracy

50:48

under the banner of islam

50:51

but yet the same nationals

50:53

in all american nationals and evangelicals

50:56

they basically want their own version of theocracy

50:59

christian law

51:06

those double standard

51:09

that are different the constitution is sacred

51:12

and we should do everything in the constitution right

51:15

lot consumers will say that we had a conserve

51:17

the costumes at all costs okay

51:19

but the constitution considered

51:22

black people to not even be fully human

51:30

the agree with that

51:31

that we want to conserve

51:34

so what is it should we be be

51:36

conserving the constitution or should we be modify

51:39

an evolving the constitution see

51:41

, gross double standard standard assertive

51:43

zoo they cherry pick the constitution for whatever

51:45

things they like and other things they know like

51:47

was adult serve them they just ignore those

51:52

i call that cherry picking

51:55

the very

51:56

he

51:58

the deception mechanism

52:01

and in general that happens with

52:04

all religious people

52:06

who try to follow moral prescriptions

52:08

from any holy book like from the bible

52:10

or from the koran or whatever what they do as they cherry pick

52:14

there's a lot of moral prescriptions and all these

52:16

books that they completely ignore

52:19

and and other ones that they fixate on

52:26

and it turns into

52:29

white

52:30

legendary degrees of hypocrisy

52:37

how about this example a

52:39

radical islamic kills five

52:41

people

52:45

then westerners want to blame all

52:47

muslims for the and

52:49

all muslims have the answer to that at all muslims

52:51

delmas denounce violence you you hear this

52:54

on think it's like why won't all muslims

52:56

denounced this radical islamic

52:58

who killed five people they're not doing it

53:01

yeah but when a radical the

53:03

know christian

53:06

domestic terrorist twenty

53:08

people in church

53:11

cricket

53:14

why lord

53:16

their calls

53:18

for all good christians to com

53:20

and to denounce this radical christian who killed

53:22

twenty people in church

53:29

why did that muslims have to answer for all

53:32

while and

53:33

i muslims christians don't have to answer

53:35

but to all the violence done by christians

53:41

for example you know when

53:45

george w bush decided to invade iraq

53:47

back in two thousand

53:49

the i remember very vividly he said you know god

53:52

told him basically

53:54

she , talking to god and god

53:56

basically convinced under this was under this move a good

53:59

decision

54:02

so in essence the iraq war was

54:06

started by christian

54:09

george w bush

54:11

and his administration was

54:14

all christians

54:17

the you can call it a christian war but why

54:19

don't we call it a christian war

54:23

and why don't all christians have to answer for

54:25

the horrors and evils

54:28

and wonders of iraq

54:37

the

54:40

a lot a christian nationalists in america

54:42

want odes the office

54:44

to be taken on the bible then

54:47

they're outraged when muslims

54:50

take odds on the koran

54:53

in the us

54:59

christians love to complain about left us politicians

55:02

and their sex scandals like bill clinton so forth

55:06

and a lack of the lack of family

55:08

values

55:12

but then when a right wing politician comes

55:14

along who's it's your it serial cheater like

55:16

trump or newt gingrich

55:19

they just turn a blind eye to that

55:25

i mean all the presidents we've had

55:28

com

55:29

was the worst on family values objectively

55:32

the worst on family values probably

55:35

any president in last

55:37

hundred years

55:38

and yet he has the most evangelical support

55:41

in america

55:43

the me it's is preposterous

55:46

the degree of double standards that are happening

55:48

here ah you know concert is

55:50

also believe that killing that zygote is evil

55:53

but

55:54

killer you're grown animal for sport

55:57

that's good

55:59

and servers will support

56:02

the blue support police until

56:05

the police come after you

56:07

and you know

56:09

your politicians

56:13

and the f b i comes after from for

56:15

earth for

56:17

for running off with bunch of classified

56:19

documents that all the sudden you know

56:22

now we have to defund the f b i guess is

56:24

as it's ridiculous

56:27

conservatives got into a whole huge

56:31

you know

56:36

the whole conniption about hillary clinton

56:38

and her classified emails stored on her private

56:40

server

56:42

but

56:43

the degree of violation of classified

56:45

information that trump is guilty of now

56:48

is way worse than anything hillary clinton was was

56:50

guilty of the me

56:52

it's preposterous

56:56

probably have a fuck about typing

56:58

class white documents that is have been

57:00

if you are intellectually honest he would admit this

57:06

complaints from the right wing about censorship in

57:08

on the right wing loves to talk about the freedom

57:10

of speech know that but the reality is that

57:13

a lot of

57:15

right wing politicians

57:18

and conservative they pass legislation they ban

57:20

books from classrooms

57:23

the right wing has been guilty of censorship

57:25

in this country

57:26

you know

57:28

the

57:29

for since the very beginning

57:32

censorship of pornography censorship

57:35

of

57:37

profanity

57:39

censorship of certain kinds of books

57:42

censorship of socialist

57:45

ideology you know the mccarthy

57:47

era that whoa that that was right wing censorship

57:53

the idea that the rightwing doesn't engage in censorship

57:55

is preposterous

58:04

there is double standards around homosexuality

58:07

homophobia

58:08

a lot of

58:10

people who objector homosexuality the most

58:12

of the war the most vocal

58:14

no

58:15

against

58:16

a lot of them are actually homosexual closet

58:19

homosexual there's actually

58:21

been science scientific studies that

58:24

that correlate that like

58:26

the degree to which you are the

58:28

anti homosexual is actually correlated

58:31

with

58:32

the

58:35

arousal towards photographs

58:38

of naked men there's a correlation there i mean

58:40

it's not a perfect one to one there

58:42

is some correlation there

58:47

how about the double standard of our application

58:49

of laws when it comes to punish criminals so lot of times

58:51

conservatives want like maximum punishment for

58:53

criminals but then when they themselves commit

58:56

a crime

58:57

then

58:58

all the fun

58:59

they want you know they come up with excuses

59:02

and they want lax

59:04

wax punishments

59:05

though

59:06

you want criminals punished but as soon as you become a criminal

59:08

now you don't want harmless fun you want exceptions for yourself

59:14

how about american nationalism is assholes

59:16

is a ridiculous double standard worth like this

59:18

is our land you immigrants go

59:21

home go back to your country and

59:23

meanwhile the native americans are sit there thinking

59:26

wait a minute this was our land your

59:29

the immigrants why don't you can go back to europe

59:35

now

59:36

i've been sitting out of service for a long time now

59:38

it's time to settle bid on on progressive the

59:40

progress has also double standards

59:43

one really ridiculous

59:45

one that i've noticed lately is with

59:48

defining the police as a such a super progressive

59:50

ideas idea of the funding the police horrible

59:53

horrible idea horrible slogan horrible

59:55

politics horrible optics all of his awful

59:58

but what the struck me as

1:00:00

the height of hypocrisy is on january

1:00:02

six progressive

1:00:05

commentators they were outraged

1:00:07

at a lot of police presence

1:00:09

around the us capitol

1:00:12

they were screaming you know where are the police

1:00:14

why we're there are more police was or some sort of

1:00:16

secret plot to you

1:00:18

know remove the police the police weren't

1:00:21

properly trained they were properly prepare

1:00:23

the were incompetent all is kind of stuff how

1:00:26

can the police be properly prepared

1:00:28

and friend and how can there be sufficient numbers

1:00:30

of them if you

1:00:32

if you wanted to fund them all

1:00:35

that's preposterous

1:00:37

also i noticed some progressive some like

1:00:39

extreme progressive like with

1:00:41

his troubles be i raid stuff that's

1:00:43

been happening lately the

1:00:45

conservatives have been saying yeah was deep on the f b

1:00:47

i would

1:00:49

fucking stupid idea and then

1:00:51

the progressive said some progress of have been like gas

1:00:53

why don't we i mean we agreed of

1:00:55

finally there something we agree on the progress

1:00:58

is one of the phone the of be i casino the of guy

1:01:00

has been use historically against black

1:01:02

people and though she was

1:01:04

and so forth are so yeah the

1:01:06

progressive one of the fun of be a hikes and the conservatives

1:01:09

mega move it was a d faut f b i see so

1:01:11

between the two of us must come together before the fps

1:01:13

this is this is so fucking stupid

1:01:16

you understand what this country would devolve

1:01:18

into without the f b i

1:01:20

the

1:01:22

f b i or those who chased down

1:01:24

your drug dealers

1:01:28

and i mean we'd i mean likes dangerous

1:01:30

drug dealers i'm your cybercriminals

1:01:33

your scammers you're white collar

1:01:35

criminals

1:01:39

cybercrime

1:01:41

a few yeah

1:01:42

f

1:01:48

b i have whole pedophile division you

1:01:50

want to deep on the f b i that basically

1:01:52

means you're pro pedophilia

1:01:54

that's

1:01:56

how stupid that is

1:02:00

the f b i serves a very important function

1:02:04

but anyway

1:02:06

them as a double standard for a

1:02:08

there

1:02:09

the

1:02:13

the you know if you did they find the f b i and then

1:02:15

your child while

1:02:17

little sexually molested

1:02:19

the don't you will be outraged by this

1:02:23

then of course

1:02:26

the double standard

1:02:27

hey you want to define the f b i will who

1:02:29

else is going to police that shit or

1:02:31

someone else or bullies it is i got a police cell

1:02:34

though

1:02:35

that required lot of money to police that

1:02:38

the movie on though what's

1:02:41

more the communism in communism there

1:02:43

is gross double standards especially

1:02:46

like in the soviet era i'm talking about like party

1:02:48

leaders in a soviet union basically professed

1:02:51

this sort of like morality

1:02:54

of equality in all of us are comrades

1:02:56

we're all equal runs on same

1:02:58

field world and earn about the same amount of

1:03:00

money and so forth but actually secretly

1:03:04

all the communists took bribes to get

1:03:06

better material goodies for themselves and to

1:03:08

hold onto exclusive positions of power

1:03:10

within the communist party actually

1:03:13

even though under communism it's supposed

1:03:15

to be like a flat hierarchy right that

1:03:18

was the point of communism remove the higher see all

1:03:20

of us going to be equal rogan earns roughly the same

1:03:22

amount of money no one's gonna be some elite

1:03:24

lording over us but then a practice what happened

1:03:27

is that the communist party self became a very

1:03:29

strict hierarchy

1:03:30

and the way you ascend that hierarchy is through

1:03:33

bride

1:03:34

another sort of shady deals and

1:03:36

the higher your position the hierarchy the better apartment

1:03:38

you would get the better car you would get the

1:03:40

better food you would get it all that sorta stuff

1:03:43

so in essence communism just

1:03:46

the know in in theory

1:03:48

it was supposed to remove

1:03:51

the hierarchical structures of oppression

1:03:53

of capitalism in practice is

1:03:56

remove them all and then it recreated them

1:03:58

all under the guise of climbing

1:04:01

this is exactly what is the case

1:04:03

right now in china to try

1:04:05

to pretend to be communist but in practice

1:04:07

they're actually more capitalist and are extremely

1:04:10

hierarchical and if you want us you

1:04:12

know have any political

1:04:14

power in china you gotta have to climb that hierarchy

1:04:18

even more so than you have to do it america

1:04:21

it's actually harder it's harder to be a politician

1:04:23

in china but it is in america because in america

1:04:25

is actually an open system based the anybody can run for

1:04:27

office in china's you can only run

1:04:29

for office if the right communist

1:04:34

party leaders approve of you

1:04:38

and they're gonna want brides analytics

1:04:43

how about this one this double standard a

1:04:45

few nations in the world are allowed to have nuclear

1:04:47

weapons like the uk the us

1:04:50

china russia

1:04:53

a few others i'm forgetting cool

1:04:55

but france and so

1:04:57

forth but then everybody else is not allowed

1:04:59

to

1:05:00

what

1:05:01

ridiculous double standard is that

1:05:05

why can't iran have nuclear weapons

1:05:08

i mean every country on

1:05:10

the right to defend itself

1:05:11

where's

1:05:14

the justice and that

1:05:21

how about this double standard

1:05:24

people not count the death of communism

1:05:26

over the last hundred years and or communism

1:05:28

has killed one hundred million people they say okay

1:05:31

but what about the deaths under capitalism

1:05:33

how many how many people have capitalism

1:05:36

killed the last hundred years

1:05:39

nobody counts that

1:05:42

that would be very interesting number to kill

1:05:48

also nobody really likes

1:05:50

to count how many lives

1:05:52

have been uplifted by communism

1:05:56

for example take a look at

1:06:01

even russia but especially china take a look at

1:06:03

china and you know if you consider china

1:06:05

to be communist which is

1:06:07

really of silly to consider them that

1:06:09

was that right winger school considered trying to be communists

1:06:12

so

1:06:13

you're right when you're you consider to be communist take

1:06:15

a look at

1:06:16

how communism under china in the last

1:06:18

fifty years has improved

1:06:20

their

1:06:21

their wealth their prosperity

1:06:23

of the average chinese person

1:06:26

the made like in try

1:06:28

to so much better

1:06:33

see that's not counted

1:06:35

or it's communist

1:06:39

the you know the capitalist loved accounts how

1:06:41

capital has improved the lives of so many people

1:06:44

as if capitalism is the only system

1:06:46

that can improve people's lives if

1:06:48

you didn't tell the improve with other tackles of also

1:06:51

you should be fair and help improve is under communism

1:06:53

to communism actually improve

1:06:55

the lives of russians the

1:06:57

last hundred years enormously russia

1:07:00

was

1:07:02

basically like a medieval state

1:07:04

one hundred years ago

1:07:06

under soviet communism it went through rapid

1:07:09

industrialization rapid developed now of

1:07:11

course there is enormous problem i'm

1:07:13

not denying knows what you should also

1:07:15

be fair about its successes

1:07:22

the see you would admit you gotta admit that there are enormous

1:07:24

problem metabolism to which

1:07:27

is because there's enormous problems of the metabolism

1:07:30

isn't

1:07:31

the bible or that it shouldn't exist

1:07:34

that is bad

1:07:36

there's good sized that that

1:07:38

you gotta

1:07:39

in a way apples to apples here

1:07:42

how about when the u s places missile

1:07:44

silos in europe pointed at russia

1:07:47

that's considered okay not aggressive the

1:07:49

us is just defending itself nato just have any as of

1:07:52

but if russia placed nuclear

1:07:54

missile silos in mexico there

1:07:57

would be complete outrage

1:07:59

on a mere

1:07:59

in haiti

1:08:02

there's no way america would settle for

1:08:04

that

1:08:08

how about this one the alternative media

1:08:12

loves to criticize mainstream media

1:08:15

for it's bias and for tearing the country

1:08:17

apart

1:08:22

but

1:08:23

the reality is that alternative media

1:08:25

is more biased

1:08:27

and here's a country apart

1:08:28

even more or at least as much

1:08:31

as mainstream media all these

1:08:33

you tube or these progressive you tube or

1:08:35

conservative you to verse

1:08:37

and podcast years and so forth

1:08:40

ah

1:08:41

they're carry the country parts and they're

1:08:43

way more biased and cnn or msnbc

1:08:46

is there a way less professional their

1:08:48

way less accurate you

1:08:50

can barely inaccuracies on cnn to

1:08:52

the inaccuracy that you see for

1:08:55

alternative media on you tube you

1:08:58

didn't get way more and accuracies on alternative

1:09:00

media simply because they don't have the same budgets they

1:09:02

don't have enough sacked checkers and personnel

1:09:05

for staff these small little

1:09:07

media outlets

1:09:08

there's gonna be more errors

1:09:12

and they can't afford to have a whole team of journalist

1:09:15

does that mean cnn is never inaccurate

1:09:18

know it's it's got an accuracy this i mean cnn

1:09:20

is unbiased know it's got it's biases

1:09:23

you got to compare apples to apples here

1:09:26

you can't ignore older bias

1:09:29

that's happening an alternative media

1:09:31

pretty bad

1:09:35

especially take into account twitter

1:09:37

facebook

1:09:38

talk is the amount of bias on

1:09:41

these platform lanes these platforms are like

1:09:43

the bottom of the barrel when it comes

1:09:45

to bias you couldn't get

1:09:47

more biased

1:09:51

and in general what happens with with

1:09:53

his double standard when it comes to politics is that there's

1:09:55

a criticism of the out groups politicians

1:09:58

the ones who are not on your side your posts the you

1:10:00

criticize them to hell as being corrupt

1:10:03

then

1:10:04

those who are party your tried to politicians that represent

1:10:06

your tribe you ignore all their corruptions

1:10:10

the

1:10:12

all of trump's supporters ignore the corruptions

1:10:14

of trump

1:10:15

they're so blind to what is this is as though trump

1:10:17

isn't throw up in their mind and his process

1:10:20

that also

1:10:22

the lot when does the civil certainly

1:10:25

left wing politicians can be corrupt and the

1:10:28

left winger you can notice herself kind of like

1:10:30

turning a blind eye to some of the minor corruptions

1:10:32

of your own politicians

1:10:34

notice that

1:10:37

right looks or to move away from politics we

1:10:40

kinda got wrapped up in that because

1:10:42

i'm honestly there's

1:10:44

religion and politics or like the two biggest

1:10:46

example or categories of double standards

1:10:49

it's so obvious there

1:10:50

our thought move on to some more subtle ones

1:10:52

like for example

1:10:54

when you are negotiating the price of something like

1:10:56

slit let's say you're you're buying a

1:10:58

house

1:10:59

when you're buying a house

1:11:01

you're try to negotiate the price down you

1:11:03

want the lowest price what

1:11:05

if you were the seller in that situation

1:11:08

you were selling the house than you would

1:11:10

you try to argue the price up

1:11:14

and you would be offered to stories excuses for why

1:11:16

in all well

1:11:17

you're in this market i should get more i should get

1:11:20

or i should have to pay less in whatever your than us

1:11:22

whenever you're negotiating for the pressure always negotiating

1:11:24

and year old favor with a gross double standard

1:11:30

also in business corporations

1:11:33

and ceos love to argue that unions

1:11:35

are unfair they give

1:11:37

me an unfair power excessive

1:11:39

power

1:11:42

they get in the way or of you know honestly

1:11:45

go see a since between employees and the

1:11:47

corporation this is preposterous

1:11:49

a preposterous double standard because the

1:11:51

reality that the the levers that a corporation

1:11:53

or ceo has over his employees

1:11:56

is like in i was like a thousand to one

1:11:59

however it

1:12:00

so a union is just equalizing that

1:12:03

and even then in most

1:12:05

cases corporations and seals will still have more

1:12:07

leverage even over a powerful

1:12:09

union

1:12:14

how about with circumcision female circumcision

1:12:16

is considered obscene and horrific

1:12:18

an evil whereas male

1:12:20

circumcision is

1:12:22

desirable

1:12:27

what's the difference

1:12:30

the old category of there's an enormous amount of

1:12:32

double standards is just between races

1:12:34

especially between blacks and whites

1:12:38

the and it's in favor of whites obviously

1:12:41

that if manage of blacks there's so many examples

1:12:43

here many of them are so obvious i won't even

1:12:46

mention them

1:12:47

when it comes to all sorts of forms of

1:12:49

discrimination wouldn't buying a house when

1:12:51

selling a house or really read an article

1:12:53

the news that said that a black

1:12:56

couple

1:12:58

lucid are house on the market one

1:13:02

price and then they did something

1:13:04

where the didn't

1:13:06

sort of pretended that they were why does that of black

1:13:08

and then the valuation the house like went

1:13:10

up by a couple hundred thousand

1:13:13

just because when they first started

1:13:15

it looked like they were black and white women

1:13:17

and then later it looked like that right

1:13:20

the ridiculous double standards like this

1:13:24

so of course you know racism

1:13:26

itself is basically

1:13:30

double standard incarnate

1:13:35

this also applies to different cultures

1:13:37

and or treating one culture as above other cultures

1:13:40

sort of west or chauvinism thing that western

1:13:42

cultures the best culture this kind of stuff

1:13:45

but of course you know like the chinese

1:13:47

are are guilty of us to either a basically every culture

1:13:49

thinks it's the best

1:13:50

the chinese think their cultures the best indians

1:13:53

think their culture is the best russians think their culture

1:13:55

is the best and japanese think there's of the best

1:13:57

the

1:13:59

this is preposterous of course

1:14:02

and

1:14:04

there is no such thing as a best culture even

1:14:07

though also there are many know there are many

1:14:09

features a culture some cultures have better features

1:14:11

in other cultures if that the compare the men sort

1:14:13

of a fine gray level

1:14:14

nothing they're all equally good

1:14:17

but the treat one cultures about

1:14:19

the others that bros double standard

1:14:21

there's also speaking of culture does lot of

1:14:23

arbitrariness with and cultural norms and etiquette

1:14:26

though the etiquette of

1:14:30

the west vs japan vs china

1:14:33

the lot of like arbitrariness to that

1:14:36

and lot of double standards just

1:14:38

like you know how do you hold afford how do

1:14:40

you talk to your boss or employee

1:14:43

the

1:14:45

how do you hold the door open for somebody

1:14:47

or shouldn't you know how do you eat your food

1:14:50

do you in a tutor mouth open or close

1:14:52

like a lot of sort like arbitrary standards like this

1:14:55

what of double standards when it comes to that

1:14:59

there's wanna double standards that

1:15:01

women have towards man specially when it comes

1:15:03

to sexuality and dating for

1:15:06

example fat men love to complain about women

1:15:08

being fat

1:15:09

and they ignore the fact that all their friends

1:15:12

are fat and they're fat

1:15:15

then love to deflate about how easy this for women

1:15:17

to get sex but

1:15:20

they don't take into account many of the problems that

1:15:22

women have and getting saxon dating

1:15:26

the gross double standards there's specially

1:15:28

a problem with an insult communities within the

1:15:30

as the community there's so many

1:15:32

ridiculous double standards that

1:15:34

these themselves have towards women and their

1:15:36

expectations about sex that

1:15:39

about how they look is

1:15:41

the

1:15:42

so toxic and ridiculous

1:15:44

i wouldn't pick up there's lot double standards

1:15:47

you know for example

1:15:49

here's what it's like in in pick up

1:15:51

there's a there's a sort of a common as you that you're all

1:15:53

girls are disloyal slots and cedars

1:15:57

but then

1:15:59

when you the new girl she doesn't end up sleeping with

1:16:01

you you know she's actually not easy to actually you

1:16:04

know she's not lose he's not

1:16:06

a lot she's actually in a loyal she has a

1:16:08

boyfriend or something

1:16:09

pick up guy will get upset as a or that bitch

1:16:12

why didn't she sleep with me

1:16:14

what would you that

1:16:15

are women disloyal slots and

1:16:18

horse and there on all

1:16:20

loose and easy or

1:16:23

are they actually oh are you know loyal

1:16:26

and the but then why are you complain that she didn't sleep with you

1:16:29

if she the disloyal flood

1:16:31

then

1:16:34

how can she didn't sleep with you so easily

1:16:40

how can she was older boyfriend see but

1:16:44

the pickup ideology discounts that

1:16:46

the doesn't care about the truth of the matter

1:16:49

don't care about being objective he

1:16:51

just cares about validating its own inner

1:16:53

self serving beliefs and

1:16:55

for pickup guys they need the

1:16:58

create a story in their mind that all

1:17:00

women are disloyal slots because in

1:17:02

reality the pick up guy is

1:17:04

there to sleep with hundreds of women so he has to justify

1:17:07

to himself that he sitting on all these women every night

1:17:09

and lying to them and so forth and

1:17:12

being disloyal to them

1:17:14

the other justify that the only way you can justify

1:17:16

that is by say that will women are

1:17:18

doing the same thing or even worse therefore

1:17:22

and allowed to do it

1:17:24

the you realize that women are actually

1:17:26

very loyal to you would feel horrible about

1:17:28

cheating on them and been slow to them

1:17:34

and also most pick up guys take this attitude that

1:17:37

you know well if if a girl cheats

1:17:39

on me

1:17:40

that's wrong and evil

1:17:42

what if i would rather butcher girls that's

1:17:45

okay

1:17:48

ridiculous the ridiculously

1:17:50

self serving

1:17:53

i got a few more scientific one's forty for example

1:17:56

science says that

1:17:57

we can't accept god without proof

1:17:59

and yet science accept the existence

1:18:02

of an external objective world

1:18:04

without any proof

1:18:08

fines also accept

1:18:10

the existence of other conscious beings

1:18:12

without any proof

1:18:17

science also will not accept

1:18:19

the paranormal without proof the

1:18:22

science readily accepts logic

1:18:25

without

1:18:26

group

1:18:30

where's the proof that logic is

1:18:33

absolutely

1:18:38

science complains about the dangers

1:18:40

of religion and mysticism but

1:18:44

science completely ignores the dangers of science

1:18:46

and materialism

1:18:49

how come religion and science or so dangerous

1:18:51

but nuclear weapons well testify

1:18:54

as his fault

1:18:59

or

1:19:00

genetic engineering nasa sizes

1:19:03

fault

1:19:04

or

1:19:07

heavy metals in our water supply

1:19:10

and leaded gasoline

1:19:12

and pollution does not sizes fault or

1:19:14

whose father that

1:19:23

compare the amount of people that have been killed

1:19:25

by science and compare

1:19:27

the amount of people have been killed by religion

1:19:30

you'll be in for a very rude awakening

1:19:34

and yet that does not in any way

1:19:37

detract the value of science

1:19:39

or the legitimacy of science in the mind

1:19:41

of scientists those

1:19:44

they create all sorts of excuses

1:19:49

but when a religious person creates excuses or

1:19:52

mystic chris excuses for the dangers

1:19:54

of religion and mysticism well those

1:19:56

are not accepted those are unacceptable excuses

1:19:59

home bullshit

1:20:01

to find that other does not com

1:20:06

and in general

1:20:08

we talking about this before but just to touch on

1:20:10

it lightly there's a lot of double standard

1:20:12

when it comes to the way that you're using the

1:20:15

labels of logical and rational

1:20:18

the basically the what people do is that their pet

1:20:21

theories and beliefs

1:20:23

no matter whether they're true or not a rational

1:20:25

or not those are told rational and

1:20:27

logical and those with

1:20:29

the other people's could you disagree with

1:20:32

their called illogical irrational

1:20:34

not because they actually are but simply because

1:20:37

that's how you use those labels that very double

1:20:39

standard way

1:20:43

another double standard that i see commonly

1:20:46

actually given my position is

1:20:48

people love to accuse anything they disagree

1:20:51

with

1:20:52

anything of kind of like non mainstream any kind

1:20:54

of ideology a worldview that little bit off

1:20:56

the beaten path and talks about non

1:20:59

material things they always call that all that's

1:21:01

a cold

1:21:06

they they never apply that same label

1:21:08

tude for example fields

1:21:10

of science or academia

1:21:13

what's

1:21:15

going on and universities it'll call that a cold

1:21:17

they

1:21:19

don't call mainstream the

1:21:22

allusions or cold

1:21:24

they

1:21:29

don't call materialism a cold

1:21:32

why not

1:21:35

you are honest you would so

1:21:38

the label called is is weaponized

1:21:40

in this way

1:21:41

here's

1:21:44

the interesting double standard that i noticed

1:21:46

when i was young that always was puzzled me a

1:21:49

lot of these double theaters or actually easier to

1:21:51

notice when you're young when you're mine hasn't

1:21:53

yet been program with them when you're first

1:21:56

interacting with society

1:21:58

once you been deeply and gray

1:21:59

in society and brain washed with it

1:22:02

you start to become

1:22:05

it is

1:22:08

like a fish and water new you can't see the double

1:22:10

standards anymore but like

1:22:12

for example would always puzzled me is the death

1:22:14

of celebrities what a celebrity dies

1:22:18

there's all this morning and people

1:22:20

come out and they're they're so thankful

1:22:22

to the celebrity how amazing the celebrity was

1:22:24

and all this health you all my god

1:22:27

it's so sad we'd lost this amazing celebrity

1:22:31

the actors musician whatever

1:22:33

the time

1:22:36

on the news every day you read people dying

1:22:38

getting stabbed shot killed one buy cars

1:22:40

on the sort of stuff you know children elderly be whatever

1:22:44

and nobody gives a fuck about these people they're not

1:22:46

mourned

1:22:47

nobody cries over there nobody tells him how beautiful

1:22:49

important they were how much they were loved

1:22:55

what's the difference what's the difference between koby

1:22:57

bryant dying and some random

1:22:59

nobody die

1:23:02

which happens every there's no fucking difference

1:23:05

if you are truly objective about it

1:23:09

the you have an emotional attachment to coby bryan

1:23:16

but why should that

1:23:19

the dictate

1:23:24

how sad

1:23:25

or how

1:23:27

heartbroken we should feel

1:23:29

why i mean honestly why do you feel

1:23:31

more heartbroken for the death of coby bryant

1:23:35

then you do for any other person in

1:23:37

the world to get makes no sense at all

1:23:40

if you are truly objective about

1:23:47

or here's a case

1:23:49

cutting in line have

1:23:52

you ever stood in line and had somebody cut

1:23:54

in front of you and how that makes you pissed

1:23:56

off right

1:23:58

and yet what about when you

1:23:59

try to do that yourself there's a long

1:24:02

line of the club and a new see confront

1:24:05

don't that

1:24:07

it's very interesting to observe

1:24:09

when i do that sometimes i do

1:24:11

cut in line they

1:24:13

get club live can can be awful sometimes

1:24:16

i have ways of cutting through vegas club lines

1:24:18

sometimes i would even bride my way through

1:24:21

i can pay the bouncer southern twenty dollars

1:24:23

or i have have other means

1:24:26

siggy see you ways of of

1:24:28

cutting through life assembly lines are awful

1:24:31

i don't do it all the time just occasionally but

1:24:34

i notice myself doing this and also

1:24:36

i lost myself like usually i don't do that that's actually

1:24:38

something i started doing just recently

1:24:43

my whole life out of basically never do it i was

1:24:45

very like

1:24:46

the interest in says that i would refuse to cut

1:24:48

in line because i don't like people tuning in line

1:24:50

for me but actually

1:24:53

but as part of my development i sort of been like

1:24:55

exploring my shadow side my evil seibel bit

1:24:57

so you know i allow myself little evil

1:25:00

maneuvers like this now and then just

1:25:02

to cut a test myself

1:25:03

i know that i'm gonna let this go right i'm

1:25:06

i'm going through this as part of like during

1:25:08

the immaturity adam isis and burning to my car basically

1:25:12

so i've been practicing that into seen

1:25:15

like how it fucks with my mind because

1:25:17

i do break integrity what i cut in line i

1:25:20

do break integrity when i bribed somebody even though

1:25:23

the biggest night clubs like

1:25:25

sounds are there are like bright i mean it's

1:25:27

it's like standard practice to bribe

1:25:29

the answers basically

1:25:31

the club's oh it happens

1:25:33

like hundreds of times arena

1:25:36

the still

1:25:37

interesting to observe that interesting to observe

1:25:39

what it does to your psyche how you feel about your

1:25:41

old self what do you feel guilty about

1:25:43

it the most people

1:25:46

who cut in line or pay a bribe didn't even think

1:25:48

about

1:25:49

they don't even think about what they're doing

1:25:52

and helms hurting their develop

1:25:55

or another

1:25:56

related point of this is plenty

1:25:59

of

1:25:59

oh treatment i know

1:26:02

a lot of a lot of people try to get special

1:26:04

treatment like

1:26:06

it didn't try to like hagel there

1:26:08

a way to some sort of special discount

1:26:10

you know the go to a storm of the

1:26:11

do that like they're buying something and lean

1:26:14

on they they try to get a better deal here

1:26:16

they try to go freebie their this kind of stuff

1:26:19

special treatment i call this

1:26:23

but really when you try to get special treatment your

1:26:26

you're treating double standards and this is

1:26:28

something that i've developed the habit of not

1:26:30

doing there

1:26:32

are situations which i could get special treatment

1:26:34

if i suddenly skillfully

1:26:36

minute maneuver myself you know my

1:26:40

speech class skills and so forth so

1:26:42

to speak blood

1:26:45

what i did not want to do it because i don't i

1:26:47

don't want special treatment

1:26:50

a lot of people the i noticed

1:26:55

they try to get special treatment and that they have developed

1:26:57

a habit of expecting special treatment

1:26:59

and they see nothing wrong with this and will still see how

1:27:01

this hurts them

1:27:02

their development and inner consciousness the

1:27:05

on pointing that out you just in case you're one of those

1:27:07

people

1:27:10

there's a whole set a double standards that

1:27:12

come with being rich and being upper class

1:27:16

lot of upper class people sort of just expect

1:27:19

certain doors to be open to them and

1:27:21

they're very good title in certain ways

1:27:23

for example upperclass people will

1:27:25

expect to be able to lobby governments

1:27:28

and they're totally fine with having

1:27:30

this proportional influence on the government's

1:27:32

in our government system in america our democracy

1:27:34

is fundamentally predicated upon the

1:27:37

idea of one person one vote

1:27:39

everyone should have

1:27:41

the equal power in electing

1:27:43

somebody basically

1:27:46

then millionaires and billionaires

1:27:48

you know they have no qualms about

1:27:51

donating a billion dollars here or million dollars

1:27:53

there or exerting various kinds

1:27:55

of pressure the basically essentially

1:27:58

what they're doing is there

1:27:59

in votes they're not a literally

1:28:02

buying votes

1:28:04

but basically it's the

1:28:06

equivalent of buying votes such that a person

1:28:08

with a billion dollars to donuts or billion dollars

1:28:10

towards the for a lobbying firm basically

1:28:13

that company that person

1:28:15

how the equivalent

1:28:18

our

1:28:19

in acting they're legislation

1:28:21

or their agenda or

1:28:23

having their favor politician elected

1:28:26

they are increasing their power by like

1:28:28

a thousand fold

1:28:29

so in essence they're having a thousand votes or

1:28:32

a million votes more than the average person

1:28:34

which is corrupting our entire system

1:28:37

and the

1:28:40

gross double standard because i'm sure if you ask what are these

1:28:42

which people do believe in one person one vote they would say

1:28:44

yes then in

1:28:46

fact behind the scenes their lobbying they're donating

1:28:49

all kind of stuff and they don't hold

1:28:51

it in their mind as

1:28:53

corrupting the voting system

1:28:58

and in general you know the rich

1:29:01

had to feel entitled

1:29:03

the and justified to their upper class

1:29:05

status and wealth

1:29:07

and therefore they support the status

1:29:09

quo and the capitalist system because

1:29:11

they're at the top of this of course are benefiting so

1:29:14

to them it seems like everything is great but

1:29:16

here's a double standard is that

1:29:18

if they happen to be born in a slightly different position

1:29:21

they are part of the country

1:29:23

chloe to be part of the world

1:29:25

but slightly lower in the in

1:29:27

the hierarchy

1:29:28

then they would be stuck in poverty

1:29:31

and then they would curse the system

1:29:36

and this

1:29:37

this is it does is a profound double

1:29:39

standard that almost all rich

1:29:41

in upper class people whole they've

1:29:43

held this

1:29:45

since the dawn of civilization

1:29:48

when you're rich it does not serve you

1:29:51

the see the double standard that

1:29:53

is resulting

1:29:55

in your wealth and power

1:29:57

they're almost always double standard that

1:29:59

is responsible

1:29:59

that

1:30:03

even though you tell yourself otherwise how

1:30:06

about with the new age and alternative medicine fields

1:30:09

the new fields there's a lot of double standards

1:30:11

for example you might go to some new age healer

1:30:14

like was the sort of

1:30:16

pain and your stomach or

1:30:18

something you go to this you know reiki healer

1:30:20

the reiki lady she does she moves her hands around

1:30:23

your stomach and then

1:30:25

if you're feeling better the next day

1:30:28

then she'll take credit for inches because they all wolves

1:30:30

it was it was the spirit of racy

1:30:32

that heals you

1:30:34

what if you're not feeling better she's not

1:30:36

gonna take credit for not fixing you

1:30:38

she's going to set your solos will the

1:30:40

spirit of ray he didn't work on you you

1:30:44

gonna find some excuse to say well that's because

1:30:46

you know you did something wrong you

1:30:49

what receptive enough to the energy you'd

1:30:52

have more faith

1:30:53

your feet wasn't strong enough

1:30:55

i've noticed this kind of logic and he has double standards

1:30:58

with alternative medicine healers a

1:31:00

new agers

1:31:01

reiki people there so foolish

1:31:04

oh bullshit basically when

1:31:06

it happens to work they take credit for

1:31:08

it and it doesn't work

1:31:10

they don't even acknowledge that didn't work they

1:31:13

turn a blind eye to

1:31:16

sleeping with shakti bar

1:31:18

that shock teapot done

1:31:21

it is so preposterous you

1:31:23

go to be saki pod people and

1:31:26

they they promise you that they can awaken you

1:31:28

they can awaken your kundalini they can enlighten

1:31:30

you through their all you know through an energy

1:31:32

transmission then you know you're skeptical

1:31:34

other be say okay fine do it on me less just practice

1:31:37

and see

1:31:38

the what the hell take a gamble

1:31:40

you do a few times

1:31:42

it works there to take credit for it

1:31:46

and are going to use you as an example of

1:31:48

one of their you know

1:31:51

wonder testimonials one of their good clients

1:31:54

they're going account that towards how effective they are they're

1:31:56

shocked teapot but when it doesn't work what

1:31:58

do they do well be

1:31:59

the new of course they say

1:32:02

all you're not ripe enough

1:32:04

you're just not spiritually right but have yet you're not

1:32:06

ready your resisting it there's

1:32:08

something within you that's holding you back you're

1:32:10

not open enough or

1:32:12

like you know you're one of those people you know we

1:32:14

all have different karma and you have more harmless

1:32:17

therefore for you was going to take longer so

1:32:19

just keep coming longer

1:32:21

they take no responsibility for the fact

1:32:24

that

1:32:26

that it's not working not because of

1:32:28

the client but because

1:32:30

you know they're they're shockey part

1:32:32

fantasy socks or art

1:32:34

as reliable as they think

1:32:37

they are

1:32:44

another one from science errors

1:32:46

in religion please that religion is bullshit but

1:32:49

errors and science or just evidence that science

1:32:52

is real and honest and willing to correct

1:32:54

itself

1:32:57

that's the security shows double standard

1:32:59

how about

1:33:01

why did that it or psychedelic so the

1:33:04

fight we all will we are all the

1:33:06

insides year from psychedelic searches hallucinations

1:33:09

okay fine but if we adopt that standard

1:33:12

then all the insides of science are

1:33:15

generated through neurotransmitters through

1:33:18

serotonin psychedelic

1:33:20

is basically a neurotransmitter

1:33:22

so therefore if also get else or just

1:33:25

elucidation and all sides also hallucination

1:33:31

are you willing to bite the bullet know

1:33:40

a general double standard

1:33:43

goes like this is that he

1:33:46

was a very tribal and we want to say

1:33:48

that our tribe is right and

1:33:51

the other tribe

1:33:52

is wrong and our tribe has good

1:33:54

intentions was the other side the other

1:33:56

tribe has batted entrance so

1:33:58

this ascribing

1:33:59

and finale

1:34:02

dot in a selfish and a biased way such

1:34:04

that like you know conservative thinks that

1:34:07

think that progressive have bad intentions and progressive

1:34:09

think that conservatives have bad intentions

1:34:12

one of the actual truth for the truth is that everybody

1:34:14

has good intentions

1:34:16

the my upset about that

1:34:18

everyone have good intentions

1:34:20

but there are different level of consciousness

1:34:22

that different corruptions from the ego mine and so

1:34:24

for different levels of selflessness and through

1:34:26

this your good intentions get corrupted and turned into

1:34:28

what looks like bad intentions

1:34:32

this is a double standard that is

1:34:34

commonly seen another

1:34:37

one is complaining about the evil of capitalism

1:34:39

on the one hand

1:34:41

then when it comes to how you or

1:34:43

your own money

1:34:45

using capitalism

1:34:48

that gets ignored that's

1:34:50

okay

1:34:52

does he need that to live he

1:34:54

will everybody within capitalism needs

1:34:56

what they're doing they're doing to survive

1:35:00

that's capital before

1:35:07

the reality and is why communism

1:35:10

failed the reality is that if

1:35:12

you eliminate capitalism

1:35:17

what's gonna happen is that then

1:35:20

you an act socialism or communism socialism

1:35:23

communism most the people are so underdeveloped

1:35:27

that they are going to resort to all the same

1:35:29

exploitative tactics that existed under capitalism

1:35:32

except now it's gonna be under the

1:35:34

umbrella of socialist

1:35:36

and communist ideology which is exactly

1:35:39

what you see in modern china and

1:35:41

also you saw in soviet

1:35:44

soviet communist russia and you see

1:35:46

a bit in any socialist country cuba

1:35:49

it elsewhere

1:35:51

you know that did it turns out the structure of

1:35:53

cap on some are so

1:35:55

are profoundly important

1:35:57

to survive all that you can eliminate them now

1:35:59

the thing that we shouldn't try to you

1:36:02

know find some sort of post capitalise solution

1:36:04

we should that the sort

1:36:06

of naive idea that socialists and communists

1:36:08

have

1:36:09

at all if we just get rid of capitalism

1:36:12

in and enact socialism everything that me

1:36:14

grade it's like no you don't understand how

1:36:16

deep the problem this is

1:36:18

the

1:36:20

just because you eliminate capitalism in name

1:36:24

in in theory doesn't mean that you'll be able to eliminate

1:36:26

in practice for example in north korea

1:36:29

were supposedly they have eliminated com

1:36:31

in capitalism the communist state

1:36:34

the

1:36:35

in reality the only way that country functions

1:36:38

you know

1:36:39

there be so much

1:36:41

there be so many people dying of hunger in that country

1:36:43

if they're didn't exist capitalist black markets

1:36:46

the

1:36:48

when it comes to like buying groceries in north korea

1:36:50

you know you can kind of go to a normal store and try to get

1:36:53

some food and stuff but it's not enough it's not enough

1:36:55

for you to survive

1:36:56

so in practice north korea's are resorted

1:36:59

to having secret black markets

1:37:01

where they eat fried

1:37:03

good you know could be food could be just household

1:37:05

items and stuff like that

1:37:07

with athena whatever trade that

1:37:10

outside of their sort of like standard store

1:37:12

system government run system because

1:37:14

governments are some rough estimate does not providing

1:37:16

them sufficient

1:37:17

resources for basic living

1:37:19

though

1:37:21

they're forced to

1:37:22

the black market trading stuff and basically have to

1:37:24

do it

1:37:25

the market

1:37:26

adolescent style the

1:37:28

god what's even

1:37:30

what's even more perverse is that the

1:37:32

north korean government knows about all these black

1:37:34

markets it's not like is black markets are like

1:37:37

inaccessible to the police and so forth know the

1:37:39

police themselves are engaged in these last marcus could the

1:37:41

police couldn't function without the black market

1:37:44

so everybody knows about the black market but it's

1:37:46

were like up you know it's like an open secret

1:37:49

everybody knows about it and the government doesn't even

1:37:51

bother cracking down on them because they know

1:37:53

that if they did it would fucking collapse the whole system

1:37:56

so the communist system depends

1:37:58

on the tablet black

1:37:59

market

1:38:01

the enough

1:38:03

that me how communism has always been and how

1:38:05

it would be if if it was an added today

1:38:11

how about this double standard

1:38:13

people love to complain with spiritual teachers

1:38:15

charge money for their teachings it's

1:38:17

a golf only oh you are so spiritual

1:38:20

you don't need money you're gone you're need money

1:38:22

why are you charging me for course

1:38:25

then when it comes to

1:38:27

how you behave in your life

1:38:29

how you pay your bills the i gotta pay my bills but

1:38:32

the question is how do you pay your bills

1:38:34

you have no problem you know if you work at starbucks

1:38:36

you have no problem charging your customers' money

1:38:39

and if a customer came into your starbucks

1:38:42

and said well

1:38:44

why aren't you giving me free

1:38:46

coffee you would you would ever be a mean

1:38:48

you would last about of the store

1:38:50

of course i'm charging for coffee of

1:38:53

course i'm charging you for being here you know it's possible

1:38:57

why do you expect your boss to pay your salary

1:39:00

why don't you are working for free a starbucks you

1:39:02

expect a salary

1:39:04

why

1:39:08

but we oh you're so spiritual you should

1:39:10

need a salary

1:39:13

but i'm also material i still

1:39:15

when i go to the store i have to pay the money like

1:39:18

when i go to starbucks to get a coffee which

1:39:20

i don't but if i did m i

1:39:23

would have to give them cash right i couldn't say that i

1:39:25

couldn't go to starbucks and say oh you know i'm leo

1:39:27

i'm the spiritual guy therefore give me a

1:39:29

free a coffee they would last me out of the store

1:39:32

therefore i need money i can't do that with the

1:39:34

of the electric company my my

1:39:36

cable company that provides me internet in only

1:39:41

they're not good except my spiritual teachings

1:39:43

as payments are they need tas

1:39:46

and therefore

1:39:49

be careful what you double standards when it comes to

1:39:51

special teachers spiritual seat of the to eat

1:39:54

too

1:39:55

just like everybody else

1:39:58

they are mortgage and

1:40:01

gotta pay the electric bill gotta

1:40:03

go shopping got

1:40:05

healthcare bills to pay less if you

1:40:08

, escape that i think special special

1:40:11

wish it were still by with of it's about

1:40:14

complaining about big oil companies

1:40:17

and the evils of pollution oil but

1:40:20

then you use those companies

1:40:22

and their oil for your road trips

1:40:25

we got to work

1:40:29

the drive to the club

1:40:32

you fuel up at the chevron station

1:40:35

the exxon mobil station the

1:40:38

shell station

1:40:40

these are the same companies that you are for

1:40:42

he knocks railing against for being evil

1:40:45

and yet you need these companies

1:40:47

the get about

1:40:49

your life

1:40:52

how about this one this one has always struck me as

1:40:54

such a crazy preposterous double

1:40:56

standard

1:40:59

it's absurd completely unacceptable

1:41:02

the show sacks in a children's

1:41:04

cartoon this would be

1:41:08

received almost equivalent to pedophilia

1:41:12

and yet showing murder two

1:41:14

children in a cartoon is

1:41:16

considered

1:41:17

the only acceptable but a legitimate

1:41:19

form of fun and entertainment

1:41:27

why is it okay to show murder but not

1:41:29

okay to show sex

1:41:36

we have our priorities back or

1:41:40

oh

1:41:41

also for example parents are outraged

1:41:45

when children make stupid mistakes

1:41:47

in their youth

1:41:50

and yet those parents made the same stupid

1:41:52

mistakes

1:41:53

there you

1:41:56

so what are you outraged about

1:41:59

he no

1:41:59

when your daughter sneaks off

1:42:03

the go making out with some boy from

1:42:06

middle school

1:42:09

the parrot you might get pissed off but

1:42:11

then you to the same shit when you were

1:42:13

the middle school

1:42:16

like when your daughter smoke some

1:42:18

weed

1:42:19

in middle school you get pissed off parents

1:42:22

the new to the same shit and

1:42:24

probably even worse when you are middle

1:42:26

school

1:42:28

the

1:42:29

also parents love to school

1:42:32

their children for cursing you know they don't want to

1:42:34

children to curse say fuck

1:42:36

and so on and yet harris

1:42:39

themselves curse more than shield

1:42:46

how about most you believe that stealing

1:42:48

is wrong and yet for example if a

1:42:50

store clerks it

1:42:52

makes a check out mistake in your favor

1:42:55

which is essentially you stealing something from

1:42:57

the store

1:42:58

that lil you turn a blind eye to that

1:43:00

that's acceptable that's not from

1:43:03

you know they made a mistake about

1:43:06

this one butchery a cow's okay that

1:43:10

butcher in a human as evil why

1:43:13

does doubles desert beating

1:43:15

a horse is okay but beating an employee is

1:43:17

wrong why

1:43:22

another scientific on your deepest show bro

1:43:26

he's ridiculous because he doesn't understand quantum

1:43:28

mechanics and he's

1:43:30

just using to justify some sort of new

1:43:34

ideas and yet

1:43:38

how about the fact of the fathers of quantum mechanics

1:43:40

like niels bohr and schrodinger

1:43:44

einstein others they were all

1:43:46

into muslim

1:43:51

how do you square that

1:43:53

go check out my

1:43:55

the food call

1:43:57

the quantum mechanics deconstructs materialism

1:44:00

or to

1:44:02

the

1:44:02

i read you quotes of

1:44:05

all the spotted quantum mechanics and there passion

1:44:07

for mysticism

1:44:10

how about this double standard something

1:44:12

like as much as fifty percent of all scientific

1:44:15

studies these days

1:44:16

i fail to get replicated invalidate

1:44:20

that means

1:44:21

they're done was the results published or than ten

1:44:23

years later somebody does the study again

1:44:26

and and they fail to replicate the results which

1:44:28

means that the original result was basically

1:44:31

the science

1:44:33

so even though we know that something like up to fifty

1:44:35

percent of scientific studies failed replication

1:44:38

the we still

1:44:41

demand scientific studies

1:44:43

as proof before we accept the thing

1:44:47

why

1:44:50

it basically coin flip whether the

1:44:52

scientific study that you're citing as proof

1:44:54

is going to actually prove a thing think bruce

1:44:57

pretty bad on

1:44:59

the the coin flip

1:45:01

why you do the studies at that point

1:45:04

ah another general

1:45:06

double standard that i see his application of spiritual

1:45:09

logic

1:45:11

misapplication of spiritual logic sort

1:45:15

of a double standard way like

1:45:16

i'm

1:45:18

iris for to give you one example with the though

1:45:21

expecting spiritual teacher dot to charge money but

1:45:24

there's there's a lot of examples of this like

1:45:26

of for

1:45:28

example you might say something like well

1:45:31

enough

1:45:38

i know that god exists because it has some awakenings

1:45:41

let's say assistance god exists

1:45:44

you know

1:45:46

i don't have to

1:45:50

don't have to worry about doing my taxes because god will

1:45:52

take care of it for me

1:46:00

like this kind of logic

1:46:05

there's a lot of like weird ways in which

1:46:07

can apply spiritual logic sort of like unevenly

1:46:10

like you expect gotta do this thing for you but not

1:46:12

as thing and

1:46:16

that gets you to all sorts of us are two problems

1:46:18

in trouble

1:46:19

will be very careful with how you're applying spiritual

1:46:22

logic and a lot of times when you're

1:46:24

when you're in i'm talking with some of

1:46:26

their spears a person there's conflation

1:46:28

of relative and absolute truth that can happen

1:46:30

and you can use relative and absolute critiques

1:46:33

is what a selective ways i've talked

1:46:35

about this in the past

1:46:37

the

1:46:38

one of the traps of of the spiritual

1:46:40

work is conflating the relative than the absolute

1:46:45

so what would be an example of this

1:46:49

like maybe your girlfriend comes to you

1:46:52

and

1:46:53

she's cry because something bad happened at work

1:46:57

the you tell her something like well but you

1:46:59

know you know baby

1:47:03

you know that resulted in a worth it's just and

1:47:05

lose your boss he he he

1:47:07

your boss would asshole but this is is just an illusion

1:47:12

speaking from the absolute point of view

1:47:14

rape and practically

1:47:17

what you're saying is true so you're not say

1:47:19

the ailing wrong there's the problem is that you're

1:47:22

you're having a double standard and how you apply this

1:47:24

because he sees then when

1:47:26

something happens to you

1:47:28

the new come crying to her

1:47:31

you know you'd be very upset if she used as

1:47:33

a logic back on you for example let's say

1:47:35

i'm

1:47:39

let's say your neighbor ran over your dog in your dog

1:47:42

died in then you would come crying

1:47:44

to her about home you know my neighbors an asshole he

1:47:46

ran over my dogs then she would tell you like

1:47:48

all baby don't worry a your dog was

1:47:50

just an illusion these she told you that

1:47:52

that would also be truth will you be pissed

1:47:55

off about it in your own mind you don't think of

1:47:57

your dog is an illusion it's much easier

1:47:59

to think of your go for

1:48:00

the boss who you've never met

1:48:02

this sport a nuisance a study about

1:48:04

it's much easier to think of him as

1:48:06

as just an illusion then this to think of

1:48:08

your you know your beloved dog is an illusion

1:48:13

so you do very careful about inox casting

1:48:16

things as illusions or dismissing

1:48:18

things as illusions cause even chino

1:48:20

everything is an illusion the end but

1:48:23

if you're going to go that route wasn't have to apply

1:48:26

that logic equally you

1:48:28

can't just cherry pick things unstable that

1:48:31

things that a loser nothing to lose that on a deal with

1:48:33

it within the things that eat or close

1:48:35

to me will those things aren't illusions

1:48:39

be careful about that

1:48:43

the common double standard i see as accusations

1:48:46

the greeting

1:48:47

and criticizing people for making money

1:48:49

the of course sometimes you can make

1:48:52

a legit criticism of somebody who's a grifter

1:48:54

but a lot of times

1:48:56

look everybody has to make money somehow

1:49:02

i don't care who you are you to make money

1:49:05

a lot of times i'll see like progressive

1:49:08

you to brush criticizing some conservatives are

1:49:10

been grifters and making

1:49:13

money then be say progressive

1:49:15

you to burst they have sponsors

1:49:18

they run advertisements

1:49:20

the picchu stuff too they

1:49:23

had to make money

1:49:25

the be careful about

1:49:28

accusing someone of being a grifter just because they

1:49:30

make money we ought to make money

1:49:37

generally speaking with in argumentation

1:49:39

debate a lot of double standards get employed

1:49:42

any time you're arguing debating with somebody to

1:49:44

watch out whether you're debating science religion

1:49:47

atheism theism left

1:49:49

or right wing politics philosophy

1:49:52

whatever it is wash

1:49:54

really carefully how the other side used

1:49:56

little centers and you use double standards to

1:49:59

uphold

1:50:00

yourself accountable to that

1:50:02

i'm a lot of double standards

1:50:05

happen

1:50:07

with cherry picking data

1:50:10

lying with day the facts and statistics

1:50:15

you can always cherry pick the data to basically

1:50:17

fit your own narrative it very

1:50:19

carefully else doing that

1:50:24

reductionism can be used in

1:50:27

a double standard way

1:50:29

where you can reduce an issue

1:50:32

that

1:50:33

you don't really care about you can take a reduction that approach

1:50:35

to it but the an issue that you do care about

1:50:38

you don't think of reductionistic

1:50:40

li the

1:50:48

that would be an example of this

1:50:52

for example you you can take a very reductionistic

1:50:54

approach towards sex

1:50:57

you could say well what's the big deal why sex so

1:50:59

poured it doesn't matter like for example let's say let's

1:51:01

a huge see your guy you cheat on your girlfriend right

1:51:04

and then i'm you know friend comes she's

1:51:06

angry at you and she says you to you asshole you fucking

1:51:08

cheat on me blah blah blah

1:51:10

then you'd you'd take of reductionistic

1:51:13

approaching you say well

1:51:14

the baby you know what is sex really

1:51:16

all it is this just like if

1:51:19

the a vagina anna and a dick

1:51:22

and it's just like is this is sort of physical moses

1:51:24

material like there's nothing spiritual

1:51:26

that doesn't matter baby it's just like it's

1:51:29

just like a physical it's like a physical act

1:51:32

it doesn't matter to look an animalistic act it

1:51:34

doesn't it doesn't mean anything

1:51:38

the like this like you reduce it

1:51:41

in order to justify it

1:51:43

but then been easy but you see how it's a double

1:51:45

standard because if it was the such

1:51:47

a physical acted in many things then

1:51:49

why did you add of cheating if it was so

1:51:52

unimportant

1:51:53

then surely would have been easy for you not

1:51:55

a seat

1:51:58

the

1:52:00

so obviously it's not

1:52:03

so unimportant you it's very

1:52:05

important to you a year just you just

1:52:07

cast it and frame it as unimportant with it

1:52:09

serves you to do so

1:52:12

the sort of form of reductionism

1:52:14

is them

1:52:18

i'll give you an example of a reduction is

1:52:21

of a of reductions double standard that

1:52:23

i caught myself on

1:52:24

when coby bryan died

1:52:28

on the forum people were like morning forum and

1:52:30

i i made a mistake

1:52:33

ah i fell into this trap

1:52:35

where am i reduce i'm like

1:52:37

i'm like was the big deal of morning coby bryan

1:52:40

death because after all he did was

1:52:42

like shoot balls into baskets this

1:52:45

this is so reductionistic because i

1:52:47

boil down all coby bryan to a guy

1:52:50

shooting balls into a basket the

1:52:52

like what was the big deal about that there's nothing special

1:52:54

about that right but then see if

1:52:56

i'm going to reduce koby bryant just a guy who

1:52:58

throws balls and baskets i mean certainly true

1:53:01

butler i have to do that

1:53:03

now with everything great it's like

1:53:06

well

1:53:07

what am i then

1:53:09

the know if i if i take that approach to me what

1:53:11

am i i'm just a guy who sits and yaps

1:53:13

his mouth

1:53:14

what makes me so special

1:53:17

odds the guy who yes the us

1:53:18

ah or you know

1:53:21

what makes what makes anyone special like

1:53:23

basically you can reduce the specialness of anybody

1:53:26

with this kind of reductions dictate and

1:53:28

like boil it down you know like

1:53:29

well

1:53:30

what defines us to find

1:53:32

like what is albert einstein will outline it was the

1:53:34

guy who sat around thinking all day

1:53:38

scribbling stop on a piece of paper like you could reduce

1:53:40

albert einstein just the guys who be to scratch

1:53:42

chicken scratch on piece of paper

1:53:46

or i'm

1:53:47

you can reduce down you know

1:53:53

a brilliant scientist who you know types on a keyboard

1:53:55

you can say welp all he did his whole life

1:53:57

was just punch hunt

1:53:59

last the keys

1:54:04

you see

1:54:05

how unfair that would be i mean you

1:54:07

can do that if you want to do that be a to that cross

1:54:10

the border

1:54:10

don't do with things that you're try to criticize

1:54:13

or

1:54:14

are you against

1:54:16

here's another very general

1:54:19

the double standard pattern which is selectively

1:54:21

pointing out the hypocrisy of your enemies

1:54:24

or you're out group while it's using

1:54:26

your in group

1:54:28

though it's like enough the whole progressive

1:54:31

i'm going to point out the hypocrisy of all of the

1:54:34

right wingers but none of the hypocrisy

1:54:36

of the leftwingers like

1:54:38

that

1:54:40

also

1:54:42

an example of the

1:54:44

pattern of double standard is also like

1:54:46

straw manning arguments the

1:54:49

see what you're doing when you're straw manning someone's argument

1:54:51

is you're taking their weakest arguments

1:54:53

and pitting it against your strongest argument

1:54:56

the get a strawman somebody you should

1:54:58

also than strawman your own position as well

1:55:00

like a freudian a straw man

1:55:04

fearsome you also have to

1:55:06

now online that with a straw man

1:55:09

of atheism to if

1:55:12

you're going a straw man christianity yourself

1:55:14

to straw man science

1:55:18

and usually that's exactly what is not

1:55:20

happening when straw manning is happening the

1:55:22

whole point of a straw man is to compare

1:55:24

apples to oranges to compare

1:55:26

the strongest of your verbs you know this

1:55:29

into the weakest of

1:55:31

the mother position

1:55:36

here's another example complaining when somebody

1:55:38

is late

1:55:40

but then

1:55:41

reading excuses for when you're late

1:55:46

here's one complaining when somebody is doing a bad

1:55:48

job

1:55:49

after work

1:55:52

but then

1:55:54

letting yourself slide and do

1:55:56

bad work

1:55:57

at your job

1:56:00

the for example you go to the airport

1:56:02

and let's say the cashier their the flight

1:56:04

attendant or whatever they're not doing their job

1:56:07

there

1:56:07

and you're upset about that but

1:56:10

then when you're at work

1:56:12

you also slack off

1:56:14

and due to do the job

1:56:17

you don't criticize yourself with

1:56:19

you don't get angry at that you don't get

1:56:21

outraged over that same way that you would do

1:56:23

when you're at the airport and you're waiting in

1:56:25

line or something like that

1:56:28

here's another gen one complaining

1:56:30

when somebody makes a mistake

1:56:33

in general

1:56:35

criticizing people for making mistakes

1:56:38

honest mistakes then you

1:56:41

make mistakes all the time in your life and

1:56:43

you don't beat

1:56:45

yourself

1:56:46

over the head for that

1:56:47

the don't get outraged when you make a mistake

1:56:50

we all make mistakes

1:56:53

had artist double standard criticizing

1:56:56

injury judging others for their ignorance

1:56:58

or lack of knowledge

1:57:02

but at one point in your life

1:57:04

you were also ignorance

1:57:06

and also acknowledge

1:57:11

and you wouldn't like been criticized and

1:57:13

judged for that

1:57:14

you would want some respect some

1:57:16

understanding as a passion

1:57:20

and finally we've come to me

1:57:23

last double standard this is the mother

1:57:25

of all double standards which is this op

1:57:27

double theaters basically boil down to this one you

1:57:30

criticize complain get outraged when

1:57:32

others behave selfishly what

1:57:35

you behave selfishly all the time

1:57:37

and you're okay with that

1:57:39

though

1:57:41

essentially

1:57:42

this is the demonization of survival

1:57:46

the double standard is that you demonize the

1:57:48

survival functions of other people

1:57:51

and

1:57:52

organizations but not

1:57:55

your own and not your own organization

1:57:57

or tribe

1:57:59

would it all boils down to this is the crux

1:58:02

of selfishness selfishness

1:58:04

is literally bias

1:58:07

in equally unfairness hypocrisy

1:58:09

that's what selfishness is

1:58:11

function

1:58:13

the function of selfishness is to skew reality

1:58:16

in your favor

1:58:18

selfish is is the unequal application

1:58:21

of standards in

1:58:23

order to benefit your own survival

1:58:27

selfishness and survival pressures

1:58:29

the mind the taylor moral

1:58:31

principles to with own advantage

1:58:34

this is the weaponization morality the

1:58:38

weaponization of ideology it's

1:58:41

a by a thing of morality and

1:58:43

ideology in service of survival

1:58:47

the cost of truth

1:58:52

now

1:58:54

we discussed a lot of

1:58:56

the final double standards we might say

1:58:58

they're culturally

1:59:03

the

1:59:05

the double standards of but we were talking to a lot of them

1:59:07

are just like bacon to our culture

1:59:11

while it's important be aware of

1:59:13

of those

1:59:13

that's not really the most important

1:59:17

lessons from this episode the most important lesson

1:59:20

the i want you to notice your own double

1:59:22

standards the double theaters within your own mind

1:59:24

that you create never mind what

1:59:26

culture and society creates

1:59:29

what is your own mind create what

1:59:31

kind of excuses are you creating

1:59:34

so here's an example of a societal

1:59:36

double standard

1:59:40

society or culture western culture

1:59:42

generally considers that men who sleep

1:59:44

around with women

1:59:46

or cool chad's

1:59:49

and women who sleep around with men are

1:59:51

sluts

1:59:53

now

1:59:54

that unfair and you can argue about how to correct

1:59:57

this author but in the and the thought

1:59:59

important here's an example of one

2:00:01

of the lot more important here's a double standard that your

2:00:03

own mind creates year old my concrete

2:00:05

the double standard of like

2:00:07

capitalism is evil and bad you hate

2:00:09

capitalism

2:00:10

but in your own life the

2:00:12

way that you're earning money as soon as you

2:00:14

had an opportunity to make a quick buck

2:00:17

buck exploiting other people huge

2:00:19

up and seize on it

2:00:20

nothing about twice

2:00:22

and yet still in your mind you believe capitalism

2:00:24

is evil

2:00:27

this is the double fear that your own mind create

2:00:30

this is

2:00:32

really what the province

2:00:34

this what you gotta work on because you're not going to six

2:00:37

societies double standards they are what they are

2:00:39

culture change that it's own rate so i really

2:00:41

enjoy control what you can control

2:00:43

as the double standards that your own mind holes and

2:00:45

how those are applied for example when you're doing

2:00:47

philosophy when you're debating when you're arguing with

2:00:49

people this is where it really matters

2:00:56

the topic of double standards is easily misused

2:00:59

and weaponized

2:01:06

the danger here that now that i've taught

2:01:08

you about double standard like i'll kaylee oh i

2:01:10

see double standards and now you go round

2:01:12

and you go complaining

2:01:15

about all the double standards that exists within society that's

2:01:18

not the point of this episode the thought of how to

2:01:20

teach let her make you and whole

2:01:22

weiner

2:01:24

or victim

2:01:27

that can be badly misuse and weaponized for

2:01:30

example if you want

2:01:32

you could use this information

2:01:35

to go out there and started complain about something like

2:01:38

you know will

2:01:40

you make a belief or why don't we teach both sides

2:01:42

of the evolution creationism debate in schools

2:01:45

is such a double standards that for

2:01:47

example we only teach evolution would not

2:01:49

creation as we don't get equal time to both

2:01:52

this would be a weaponization of

2:01:54

stop

2:01:56

for for example with climate change he wants it will

2:01:59

double

2:01:59

after that

2:02:01

people are talking about climate change than we're not here

2:02:03

in the opposite side of climate change so let's

2:02:05

hear more about how climate change is speak

2:02:10

that's a mistake and that's the weaponization

2:02:15

double standards

2:02:17

for example

2:02:19

white people who cry about white genocide

2:02:22

and reverse racism this is up this

2:02:24

is a misuse of double standard

2:02:27

there is no white genocide in

2:02:29

reverse racism is not the same thing as racism

2:02:32

the

2:02:35

third of sometimes like to cry about you know

2:02:38

why if there's a gay pride parade was

2:02:40

there a straight pride parade that

2:02:42

a double standard leo

2:02:45

no

2:02:46

you're misusing

2:02:48

this lesson of double standard

2:02:54

look what yep understand that not everything is equal

2:02:59

i'm not trying to teach you some naive

2:03:01

no snow

2:03:04

equality here sometimes

2:03:08

things deserve to be treated differently

2:03:10

not everything is the saying

2:03:13

not everything deserves equal treatment

2:03:17

the does not as simple as it seems

2:03:21

you have to really ask

2:03:23

yourself

2:03:25

in this case where there's a double standard right

2:03:28

you know i suspect a little sad it is it a genuine

2:03:31

double standard or not or are these two things

2:03:33

actually different deserted be treated differently

2:03:35

for

2:03:38

example when it comes to many

2:03:40

of a double standards between men and women a lot

2:03:42

of these actually are not strictly

2:03:45

speaking double standards

2:03:46

the legitimate in a

2:03:48

sense that men and women are different

2:03:50

they have different mindsets different knees different

2:03:52

weaknesses and strengths and psychologies and

2:03:55

therefore it is different for example

2:03:58

there is a d

2:03:59

prince between

2:04:02

a man walking around topless

2:04:05

shirtless the

2:04:07

street

2:04:08

the beach whatever versus a woman

2:04:11

there is a difference it's

2:04:14

not the same thing so

2:04:16

be careful not to fall to the simplistic sound like

2:04:18

or won't

2:04:20

men can go topless why can't women go

2:04:22

topless there's good reasons why women can't go

2:04:24

topless

2:04:26

because

2:04:28

men are sexually attracted

2:04:30

to

2:04:32

female breasts in a very different way

2:04:35

then women are attracted

2:04:37

some male breasts

2:04:41

that's different that's an important difference

2:04:46

a man easily get sexually aroused

2:04:49

by female breasts a

2:04:51

woman not the same looking

2:04:53

at guys chest

2:04:55

i mean

2:04:56

you know a little bit or not but like not nearly

2:04:58

the same thing as what happens when a guy

2:05:02

look

2:05:03

that's an important difference so that's not

2:05:05

really seeing double standard

2:05:08

you know there's cries for example about affirmative

2:05:11

action in a concerted lot to cry about affirmative action

2:05:13

or you know how wrong reparations

2:05:16

are

2:05:19

the misuse of this notion of doubles

2:05:22

elegans weaponization

2:05:25

there's actually validity to

2:05:26

affirmative action and reparations

2:05:29

the not

2:05:31

that will double standard

2:05:34

reasonable people like to cry that old leo's

2:05:36

you're criticizing the right wing so much more than a

2:05:38

left wing double standard

2:05:41

know because we have to consider is maybe

2:05:44

actually

2:05:45

the right wing deserves more criticism the left so

2:05:47

you can just assumed that

2:05:49

equal

2:05:50

maybe they are but maybe they aren't that's an empirical

2:05:52

question assault something could just take a priori

2:05:55

as a given

2:05:57

it's possible that the rightwing

2:05:59

deserves more criticism

2:06:02

it's possible that they're less developed at

2:06:04

least at this point in time

2:06:06

maybe in the future that'll change

2:06:16

you know men love to complain about double standards

2:06:18

of when legal still say all women have it's so easy

2:06:21

to say to have sex

2:06:23

that again

2:06:24

you're not seeing the cemetery something that

2:06:27

aiding and sexuality for men and women

2:06:29

are is very ace that asymmetrical for

2:06:31

a woman the challenge of dating is not

2:06:33

getting laid yes you can get laid easily

2:06:36

but that doesn't serve her reproductive needs

2:06:39

hurry for it needs are not to get laid her reproach

2:06:41

of these are defined the guy who can

2:06:43

stick around and not runway pop

2:06:46

and number

2:06:49

that is a challenge for many women

2:06:51

serious challenge it might even a bigger

2:06:53

sheldon it is for you in cells to get late

2:06:57

though

2:07:00

careful thing that there's a double standard between

2:07:02

how easy it is for women to get laid

2:07:04

in for many get laid there's

2:07:06

there's there's many asymmetrical

2:07:08

trade offs that women pay for being women

2:07:11

the have to honestly take a look at that when

2:07:15

i see

2:07:16

people get really confused about is when

2:07:18

they're trying to compare to asymmetrical

2:07:20

things like the sexuality of a man

2:07:23

versus a woman there so bad

2:07:25

at handling a cemetery because

2:07:27

the just usually people can

2:07:31

can be fairly decent

2:07:33

and intellectually honest about the

2:07:36

adjudicating a situation where two things are should

2:07:38

like to equal sides of the coin

2:07:41

they can kind of the on buys

2:07:43

it all but objective in that sense although even there

2:07:46

they can screw that up easily but where

2:07:48

they really struggle is when they're trying to judge

2:07:50

or jury kate an asymmetrical situation

2:07:54

like for example left wing vs right

2:07:56

way because most people

2:07:58

assume that leftwing and right winger just the polar opposites

2:08:00

an equal things and they try to adjudicate

2:08:04

the it that way but that's not how it is

2:08:07

left and right are asymmetrical

2:08:11

and people get so confused by that

2:08:14

same thing with

2:08:15

the

2:08:16

the eating when it comes to men and women they get really confused

2:08:18

by that as well

2:08:20

the trip tripped up by that

2:08:23

so

2:08:24

very careful and watch for your justifications

2:08:27

rationalizations of your double standards

2:08:31

another misuse of double standards would be starting

2:08:33

to debate

2:08:35

about who's the bigger victim of double standards

2:08:39

you might be tempted to say wealth okay so we're

2:08:41

talking about this concert double standards now let

2:08:43

me go out there and in of write blog posts

2:08:45

and shoot videos and podcast about how

2:08:47

big of a victim my thrive is

2:08:50

and i am because i'm part of this group

2:08:55

for the double standard you know doubles their against gay people

2:08:58

have flat people yes a some people against women

2:09:00

against whatever and then you you turn that into an

2:09:02

identity this victim identity any for to debate

2:09:04

people about how big of a victim who's

2:09:06

the bigger victim or black people to bigger

2:09:08

victim or asian people to bigger victim or jews

2:09:11

the bigger victims or or or

2:09:13

trans people to bigger victim this

2:09:15

is a mistake

2:09:16

don't want to try to teach you you're going to waste

2:09:19

a lot of your mental energy doing this

2:09:21

and you're not going to develop yourself

2:09:24

in doing

2:09:29

we're not primarily interested in the double standards

2:09:32

that other people are doing to us

2:09:34

we are mostly interested in the double

2:09:37

standards that our own mind is doing

2:09:39

to the world

2:09:41

you

2:09:42

are guilty of double standards

2:09:46

i don't care how big a victim or you are you're

2:09:48

guilty of doing it

2:09:50

though

2:09:51

that's part of developing yourself or interested in is

2:09:53

eliminating double standards within you

2:09:58

and that does not

2:09:59

been reading everything equally

2:10:03

men and women should not be treated equally

2:10:11

for example you might say all leo you

2:10:13

know

2:10:14

then

2:10:15

get drafted you know the men have to

2:10:16

for the draft there's a war then

2:10:18

get drafted

2:10:20

women don't that's unfair that's a double standard

2:10:23

that's not a double standard that's how it should be

2:10:26

there's a good reasons for that

2:10:29

no maybe we can tweak something

2:10:31

here and there but

2:10:33

the understand that it's not the same thing to draft

2:10:35

men as as to draft women and there's legitimate

2:10:37

reasons for that and this this

2:10:40

apply you can extrapolate this issue too many

2:10:42

other

2:10:43

situations not with other women but just

2:10:45

across the board and life rights of be careful not

2:10:47

to call things double standards when

2:10:50

there's a legitimate difference between them and they need

2:10:53

to be treated differently

2:10:55

this requires intelligence on your part

2:10:59

now you might be wondering ultimately

2:11:01

like leo

2:11:02

why are you harping on his double standards was

2:11:04

is so important

2:11:06

and here's why it's actually very important

2:11:08

it's more important than almost anybody

2:11:10

realizes

2:11:12

here's why

2:11:13

because god

2:11:15

love and truth

2:11:17

his lack of bias

2:11:21

though my mission here is to guide

2:11:23

you towards the highest realizations of god

2:11:25

love and truth

2:11:26

that's what i teach

2:11:29

i can't do that if

2:11:33

you develop a habit of hypocrisy

2:11:37

and

2:11:38

holding and arguing

2:11:41

with

2:11:42

the kind of gross double standards that most

2:11:44

people hold

2:11:46

and be as biased as you are

2:11:49

this issue of hypocrisy as much

2:11:51

deeper

2:11:53

that most people realize

2:11:59

here's what i want you to the

2:12:01

take this away from this episode

2:12:03

that you are literally to biased

2:12:07

no

2:12:08

realize god and to

2:12:11

understand what reality is the deepest

2:12:13

levels

2:12:13

you want to really understand god

2:12:17

the obstacle to that is all of your biases

2:12:20

and your double standards your mind

2:12:22

is so corrupted by buys and double standards

2:12:25

that you ashley's don't have

2:12:27

and

2:12:33

you don't have a clear enough perception

2:12:37

the be able to clog nice got

2:12:40

god is the total absence of bias

2:12:46

in order to see god clearly you have to cleanse

2:12:49

your mind of all your biases so

2:12:52

that's ultimately what the point of this

2:12:54

whole episode is

2:12:55

it's actually much more significant than you

2:12:57

would think

2:12:58

this episode you might have thought that off

2:13:00

this is this is about leo criticizing conservatives

2:13:03

are leo in of talking

2:13:05

about some problems than society know

2:13:07

this was not i'm not talking a promise i don't

2:13:09

care about who has

2:13:12

easier sex or who's more press black

2:13:14

people or travel i don't give a fuck about

2:13:16

that

2:13:17

it doesn't matter that all bullshit i

2:13:19

mean it does matter of course i do

2:13:21

care about that on a certain you know human

2:13:24

relative level it matters

2:13:27

i'm a larger context of what we're doing here

2:13:29

it doesn't matter at all what we really

2:13:31

care about is pure find your mind of your own

2:13:33

biases so that you can access

2:13:37

the deepest wisdom

2:13:39

the highest insights

2:13:41

that's what we care about

2:13:46

that's why talk about bias so much go

2:13:49

see my episodes see my so called

2:13:51

understanding buys see my absolute about called

2:13:53

self bias see my other absurd called

2:13:55

absurd understanding relativism part one part one

2:13:57

of apart to it apart three coming up in the future

2:14:00

very important episodes it's this

2:14:02

which this preventing you from accessing god

2:14:04

not just you but the majority of mankind

2:14:07

ninety nine percent of mankind is so biased

2:14:10

they will never understand god

2:14:12

this includes scientists and academics

2:14:15

and progressives

2:14:22

you're not appreciating how how

2:14:25

the problematic biases not a small

2:14:27

thing

2:14:29

that aspires problem is

2:14:32

it it goes to the very metaphysics

2:14:34

of of reality

2:14:40

no conscience people how blatant double

2:14:42

standards

2:14:43

now you understand this

2:14:47

and you're started going all sense of why that is

2:14:51

because selfishness is bites

2:14:53

and god is selflessness

2:14:56

so if you want to access god you

2:14:58

have to become selfless which means of to give up all your biases

2:15:01

and this is why nobody access has got very frequently

2:15:03

it's consider want to give up all their biases

2:15:05

or to asses

2:15:08

the fundamental problem is that people

2:15:10

don't care about truth

2:15:14

they don't see

2:15:15

what they're missing

2:15:17

by giving up truth they sacrifice

2:15:20

truth as soon as it as it's intellectually

2:15:22

convenient for their survival

2:15:31

for example the bible says it's easier for

2:15:33

a camel to pass through the i have a needle than

2:15:35

this for rich man to get into heaven

2:15:41

but that's a very inconvenient truth

2:15:44

therefore what most christians do with they pursue

2:15:47

wealth and

2:15:55

they cherry pick the bible for in all those

2:16:01

moral prescriptions

2:16:03

which are convenient for them and then the ones

2:16:06

that are not convenient they ignore those for

2:16:08

example jordan peterson see

2:16:10

knows that

2:16:12

the bible says it's easier for cable to pass

2:16:15

for the i've an eel the news for responding into heaven and

2:16:17

yet

2:16:19

he's raking in millions of dollars

2:16:21

doing what he's doing

2:16:26

i'm not i'm not naive enough to

2:16:28

think that jordan peterson is doing what he's doing

2:16:30

simply for the money

2:16:33

that's still like you

2:16:35

know if know if talking jordan peterson i would really

2:16:38

crush them on his i would say you know your

2:16:40

you speak about the bottle a lot you talk about

2:16:43

offer the bible story than various kinds of

2:16:45

prescriptions moral prescriptions for the bible

2:16:47

and what you should do and why you shouldn't do a

2:16:49

but what about this one from the bible it'll

2:16:52

if you truly believe in the bible in you think it's so

2:16:54

poorly think it's it's the cornerstone of all

2:16:56

the western civilization

2:17:00

how

2:17:01

and you ignore his is this this this most

2:17:04

crucial passage that is easier

2:17:06

for the for a camel to pass with i have a needle

2:17:09

than for which many going to heaven so i would ask him i

2:17:11

mean

2:17:12

you are rich man you of millions of dollars

2:17:14

though

2:17:16

are you gonna get into heaven

2:17:24

how come and then i would ask him

2:17:26

how com

2:17:27

when you're in know when you're talking

2:17:30

it against marxism and communism

2:17:32

socialism and progressivism known

2:17:34

sources of how com

2:17:37

the new you quote the bible a lot as he do that

2:17:40

enjoyed by balancers how come you never bring up

2:17:42

this this this problem with capitalism

2:17:45

the

2:17:46

isn't that shouldn't you like read

2:17:48

really be troubled by capitalism because

2:17:51

capitalism encourages people

2:17:53

the become wealthier and wealthier

2:17:56

matt mean that they're

2:17:58

not going to be getting into heaven

2:17:59

and you a whole point of what you're teaching to help

2:18:02

people get into heaven

2:18:05

square that

2:18:08

that double standard

2:18:13

you might think that this is just importantly debate

2:18:15

point or some sort of like

2:18:17

minor cool but it's not a minor quibbles

2:18:19

like literally what i'm saying that

2:18:21

jordan peterson is unable to

2:18:25

realize god

2:18:27

the double standards he halted his mind

2:18:30

that's how serious the says

2:18:34

the most likely he will die not

2:18:36

realizing god himself as god

2:18:38

because of the double fantasy holds

2:18:40

and the money he earns for holding

2:18:43

those double standards

2:18:45

the earth a lot of money

2:18:46

the holy notable says and look i

2:18:49

don't

2:18:49

i don't begrudge him any of that

2:18:53

i have nothing is money if he wants to make millions

2:18:55

of dollars that's fine

2:18:57

i don't have a problem making millions dollars myself

2:19:01

the

2:19:02

and i can do that you miserable leo

2:19:05

aren't you rich to though

2:19:09

i'm pretty wealthy heard of know that london

2:19:11

is wealthiest turn peter since i don't reckon that

2:19:13

kind of money but i'm i'm not i'm

2:19:15

not do a bad for myself

2:19:18

the

2:19:19

however here's the difference the

2:19:22

difference is that i'm i'm i'm

2:19:24

very aware of my biases

2:19:28

one my mind have enough by a company

2:19:30

perfect at this i'm not claiming to have closed

2:19:32

all of my biases a close another my

2:19:34

biases the point where i realize that

2:19:36

i'm not

2:19:37

so i want to achieve that though

2:19:41

whether i earn money now or not is irrelevant

2:19:43

at this point

2:19:44

although still i would say that i still have more

2:19:46

growth to do and i still notice

2:19:48

that my desire to taste for success

2:19:50

and fame and money i had to hold myself

2:19:52

back from that i could do

2:19:54

more of what jordan peterson like is is doing

2:19:57

that i could go on m

2:19:59

support

2:19:59

yeah

2:20:01

i could orchestra that

2:20:03

i could you butcher interviews

2:20:05

i could get my name out as i could start taking

2:20:07

very it's up to my controversial i'm

2:20:10

hot button political positions

2:20:13

you know to get more viral exposure

2:20:15

i could reduce my video duration

2:20:18

you know from like three hour long videos

2:20:20

to ten men on video i could

2:20:22

do that i could restructure all my content to

2:20:25

make millions more dollars and if i

2:20:27

do that that will retard my development

2:20:31

i was ultimately had the saw myself out

2:20:38

i could appeal to a lot more people by line

2:20:41

up to their biases

2:20:43

i would want more money

2:20:44

and by doing that i would prevent

2:20:47

myself from accessing the

2:20:49

deepest as a aspects of

2:20:52

spirituality that i still have yet

2:20:54

more work to do to access

2:20:56

the i'm very cognizant of the at and i

2:20:58

sacrificed a lot of money or

2:21:00

module realizes is how many millions of sacrifice

2:21:04

the get to where i know i now

2:21:07

that

2:21:09

like literally

2:21:10

i've put my business on i've

2:21:12

crippled my own business in

2:21:15

order to become more conscious of god i

2:21:17

had to do that so there's a lot of wisdom

2:21:19

in this saying unknown was a jesus

2:21:21

who said this that it's easier for camel

2:21:23

to pass through the i have a needle than for rich man to

2:21:25

get to heaven there's a lot of truth to that know that's

2:21:27

not an absolute statement that doesn't mean that a rich man

2:21:29

can't become enlightened that's

2:21:32

possible

2:21:33

but

2:21:34

there's also the also

2:21:36

present some serious challenges

2:21:40

there's a good reason he said that the

2:21:42

chasing of my it's not really the money itself

2:21:44

as the problem is everything you're

2:21:46

doing to procure the money and secure

2:21:48

the money and then the money becomes an addiction

2:21:51

you want to chase more of it the

2:21:53

becomes a never ending cycle and europe season when

2:21:55

your whole life

2:21:56

and you get so busy doing

2:21:58

that that you have no time

2:21:59

the actually meditate

2:22:01

psychedelics to contemplate

2:22:03

to reflect on yourself biases

2:22:06

exactly jordan peterson problems like

2:22:08

it's if jordan peterson wants to realize he's

2:22:10

got to stop what are you doing for

2:22:13

couple years and just like sit down and

2:22:15

fucking contemplate do psychedelic do

2:22:17

meditation do all that stuff read books and

2:22:19

then then do that but but the

2:22:21

do not yet you'd have to surrender

2:22:24

probably ten million dollars

2:22:29

is he gonna do that

2:22:31

the that's hard that's very hard to do

2:22:34

no it's tempting i'll it is somebody handed

2:22:36

me a suitcase with ten million dollars and

2:22:38

said hey look for the next three

2:22:40

years don't meditate a due to any special what you're

2:22:42

suddenly dollars i would be tempted and

2:22:45

that's that's good money i mean like

2:22:48

i can live off for the rest my life i'd be tempted to

2:22:50

do that

2:22:51

no hopefully i would i would say no but

2:22:53

i don't even know luckily had one of their process

2:23:01

so fundamentally

2:23:03

yet understand that your mind does not

2:23:05

want fairness doesn't like fairness

2:23:08

you think you like fairness you actually don't

2:23:11

if you got actual taste of fairness

2:23:13

you probably cry

2:23:16

what you really want is you want things skewed

2:23:18

in your favor notice

2:23:22

that you only complaint with things are skewed

2:23:24

against when things are skewed

2:23:26

towards you you don't complain

2:23:29

about that

2:23:30

that itself is a major double standard the

2:23:32

home

2:23:34

most people

2:23:37

people without double standards are quite

2:23:40

rare you should notice this people

2:23:43

with high intellectual integrity these these

2:23:45

are rare people mostly

2:23:47

what you find out there and in the into

2:23:49

like in the intellectual

2:23:53

the space on you tube

2:23:56

on social media and mainstream tv always

2:23:58

gonna stuff these so called the actual

2:24:00

them

2:24:00

the girls and speakers

2:24:05

they're deeply deeply biased

2:24:10

finding a human being

2:24:13

who is truly unbiased is

2:24:15

so rare

2:24:16

such a gift if you find such a person

2:24:19

is such a gift

2:24:20

if you point the teachers such a mentor

2:24:23

such a friend such a lover such

2:24:26

a parent

2:24:30

so rare

2:24:32

so rare this is so precious

2:24:35

and people don't appreciate it

2:24:39

i hope this episode convinces you

2:24:42

to appreciate this more to look for these kinds

2:24:44

of people in when you find them to to befriend

2:24:46

them

2:24:49

and to make the best use of them

2:24:54

it requires so much consciousness and commitment

2:24:57

to truth

2:24:58

and

2:24:59

the enormous levels of self reflection

2:25:01

and integrity

2:25:03

and lots of admitting your own biases

2:25:07

why go volume double standards

2:25:13

so what i suggest to you if you really want

2:25:15

to develop yourself and reach the highest

2:25:18

potential that you have as a human being

2:25:21

is and

2:25:22

we can spirituality especially is

2:25:26

the want you to commit

2:25:28

to this project over the next

2:25:31

few decades of your life to

2:25:33

eliminate as many of your double standards from

2:25:35

your mind as possible

2:25:40

understanding that

2:25:43

the payoff the end of

2:25:45

all that

2:25:46

will that will be that

2:25:48

you'll

2:25:55

be able to

2:26:00

to reach levels of truth and awakening

2:26:02

that are superhuman

2:26:04

that no other human has reached

2:26:06

because they haven't gone through this process

2:26:11

and understanding that there is a

2:26:14

serious

2:26:16

costs

2:26:18

the lack of intellectual integrity which

2:26:21

is that you have a divided mind

2:26:26

all these double standards

2:26:28

these are boundaries that you're drawing within

2:26:30

your own mind

2:26:32

then you have to reinforce these boundaries

2:26:34

these boundaries are fragmenting dividing

2:26:36

your mind

2:26:41

and god the

2:26:43

year

2:26:44

unity god is a united

2:26:47

mind

2:26:48

and in the and everything you're working towards in

2:26:50

the spiritual work is the unification

2:26:52

of a divided mind

2:26:56

all of the bad intellectual habits you picked

2:26:58

up from society for media from culture from

2:27:00

friends from family and others from

2:27:04

school from business

2:27:07

the pursuit of sex

2:27:09

and money and fame all

2:27:12

be subdivided your mind fragmented

2:27:14

your mind and now the rest of your life

2:27:18

if you're interested an actual either yourself is

2:27:20

a process of stitching your mind back

2:27:22

together again unifying

2:27:24

all the fragments until eventually

2:27:27

you reach absolute unity

2:27:29

which is god

2:27:43

that's what i suggest you attempt

2:27:48

you'd have to be pretty wise to see

2:27:51

the importance of doing

2:27:52

most people won't see the importance of it because it doesn't

2:27:55

give you an immediate you

2:27:57

know easy quick read

2:27:59

it doesn't

2:28:01

the long term process it's

2:28:04

only going to pay off

2:28:05

years later

2:28:08

if you wish to do this then start

2:28:11

looking for and systematically weeding out

2:28:14

all of your double standards catch yourself

2:28:16

in the very act of committing

2:28:20

the air

2:28:21

holding a double standard

2:28:23

arguing from a double standard catch

2:28:26

yourself in the act

2:28:32

the going to require introspection i

2:28:34

have an older episode called developing introspection

2:28:38

go watch that it'll help you to do this

2:28:42

no you might say but leo

2:28:44

what about your double standards in hypocrisy

2:28:46

are you guilty of double standards i i've seen

2:28:48

some your episodes that it seems like you've been guilty

2:28:50

of this stuff in the past

2:28:53

and certainly

2:28:55

i am guilty of holding double standards and

2:28:57

i'm guilty of hypocrisy

2:28:59

sure

2:29:01

you'll find some of that in my work

2:29:05

my work is not spotless i'm

2:29:08

doing the best the can with what i got i

2:29:10

got i got some egomaniac corruptions

2:29:13

i got bad habits that i picked up in my youth

2:29:15

and so forth in

2:29:17

all this is really just a the part of the topic

2:29:19

of self deception

2:29:21

and remember in my self deception series of

2:29:23

the other that in part three i very

2:29:26

much deliberately stressed that i am not

2:29:28

immune to self deception i do the best i can

2:29:31

the

2:29:32

that are the most people but

2:29:34

i'm not immune to it

2:29:36

and in the end that's all you can use you can you know

2:29:38

you you can try to

2:29:40

do your best

2:29:45

i give your whole list of examples of of

2:29:49

my own hypocrisy is and

2:29:52

how i caught myself in double standards

2:29:54

for example i've caught myself and

2:29:56

dumber sanders dumber sanders when it comes to

2:29:58

leftist politics and progressive

2:29:59

them

2:30:02

definitely part of as there my mine

2:30:04

got infected with that as i was in learning

2:30:07

progressive politics

2:30:08

hard to avoid that because there's so much

2:30:11

the me somebody buys within

2:30:13

all the progressive media sources

2:30:16

the

2:30:22

i caught myself holding double

2:30:24

standards when it comes to doing philosophy having certain

2:30:26

biases against certain philosophies and towards

2:30:29

other ones

2:30:30

arguing about a philosophy in

2:30:32

a form for my

2:30:34

my favorite philosophy and against some other

2:30:37

philosophy them and using

2:30:39

double standards in my arguments i've done that

2:30:41

in the past

2:30:42

i'm not so much on camera but like i mean in

2:30:44

in the past when i was like studying philosophy

2:30:46

back and university

2:30:48

also

2:30:52

when it comes to science

2:30:54

atheism skepticism

2:30:56

again i'm not talking about what i do on camera talk about stuff

2:30:58

that i did in the past when i was

2:31:00

no back and university

2:31:04

and so forth know really

2:31:07

thinking deeply about science atheism skepticism

2:31:10

oh through that phase of my life you know i had i had

2:31:12

a lot of double standards there that i had a catch

2:31:14

ultimately allowed me to deconstruct

2:31:17

hi it's atheism of skepticism

2:31:19

because those are built on double standards i had

2:31:21

to deconstruct all those if understand that you

2:31:23

might think off leo assault on scientific

2:31:25

an anti scientific an anti atheists

2:31:27

and as he skeptic at all that know i

2:31:29

was the biggest

2:31:31

no scientific most rational

2:31:33

i'm see theistic and skeptical person

2:31:36

before right

2:31:38

did lot of work to deconstruct all that

2:31:41

i'd feel broke my mind from sites

2:31:44

i had to do that to retire levels of consciousness

2:31:48

that a lot of don't share that to correct their

2:31:50

that identify which allowed me to do

2:31:52

that which i help you to do like in my

2:31:54

deconstructing with a science part one two three series

2:31:57

a lot of that is just pointing out the double standard

2:31:59

the science and then deconstructing those

2:32:02

we did a little bit of that even here day

2:32:06

when i got into pick up against

2:32:09

the long time ago before i even begin actually that organ

2:32:11

got into pick up and i noticed that

2:32:14

somebody attitudes towards women insects

2:32:16

that insects adopted there

2:32:18

we're also hypocritical and

2:32:20

i had double standards there are had a correct those

2:32:24

maybe i still have i'm i do still have

2:32:26

maybe a little bit of lingering

2:32:28

hypocrisy there that i'm gonna correct

2:32:30

going forward some bias there

2:32:33

but i used to be

2:32:35

lot worse i corrected have plenty of that

2:32:37

in doing this work actually i don't worry

2:32:41

i notice and touch myself sometimes when i'm moderating

2:32:43

on a forum giving out warning points to

2:32:45

people for bad behavior i sometimes notice

2:32:48

myself giving out warning points to somebody in than i

2:32:50

realized wait a minute

2:32:51

last week i just did the same thing

2:32:55

though

2:32:56

and here i am getting out warning points should

2:32:59

i be given weren't wouldn't points to myself i noticed

2:33:01

that i'm very cognizant of that

2:33:04

then i use that to try to correct my behavior

2:33:06

the future to make myself more integrated more

2:33:08

consistent

2:33:10

then again i'm not i'm not perfect

2:33:12

that i still make mistakes in that respect

2:33:18

this is an evolutionary process

2:33:21

i caught myself endeavors double standards

2:33:23

when it comes to criticizing other people

2:33:25

selfishness lot of times

2:33:27

are judged somebody for being selfish know realized will wait

2:33:29

a minute

2:33:30

i'm fucking focus to

2:33:32

also i

2:33:34

caught myself criticizing other people

2:33:36

for being hypocrites but then i notice wait a minute

2:33:39

the hypocritical to

2:33:41

for that matter hypocrisy is

2:33:43

criticizing hypocrites for being hypocrites

2:33:46

even though your hips

2:33:48

paradox of the bakassi

2:33:53

i noticed my saw having double standards and criticisms

2:33:56

of public intellectuals and spiritual teachers

2:33:59

there

2:33:59

careful about that these days in

2:34:02

i'm going to eliminate all that going forward

2:34:06

i noticed double standards in terms of my

2:34:08

criticism of ignorant people

2:34:10

and of the lower stages of spiral that evans

2:34:13

lotta times i can tend to kind of like looked

2:34:15

down and be dismissive of the lower status

2:34:18

then i to remind us of wait a minute but i had to go

2:34:20

through those lower say just to i've had to go through blue

2:34:22

stage i to go to an orange stage i to go through

2:34:24

green stage

2:34:26

you know who my to criticize the stages

2:34:29

when i had to go through that myself a

2:34:31

lot of times i criticized people for

2:34:34

selling out for been grifters for chasing

2:34:36

after money for

2:34:38

the ogres kind of shady marketing tactics

2:34:40

but i went through a phase of that to before

2:34:42

sort actual either way through face of that myself

2:34:46

so cool micro size

2:34:48

the

2:34:50

so i can be here hypocritical on that point

2:34:56

sometimes i have a double standard

2:34:58

in that i'm in all i

2:35:00

take a sort of shot in florida

2:35:02

or are sort of ugly and seen

2:35:05

the cancellation of other people but then when i think about

2:35:07

like what would i be happy if i got cancelled

2:35:09

i'm very careful that cancellations i'm

2:35:12

very careful not to call for the cancellation

2:35:14

of people generally speaking although

2:35:17

home

2:35:19

scoundrel do deserve

2:35:21

but like i'm very careful about that

2:35:23

as i want to make sure that i don't have a double standard when it comes to

2:35:25

cancellation

2:35:32

the other double standards

2:35:34

hunter a noticed that

2:35:36

my criticisms of v guns have

2:35:38

had double standards within them

2:35:40

and bias

2:35:42

the thing i'm gonna eliminate

2:35:45

i notice when it comes environmentalism like

2:35:47

theoretically i'm very pro environmentalist

2:35:50

then when it comes actually my own personal life

2:35:52

i noticed that i'm not as clean as i could be like

2:35:54

i could reduce my carbon footprint more

2:35:56

the

2:35:59

and i've been kind of neglectful in that respect

2:36:02

because i've been focusing on other more important

2:36:05

the thing and in athens i have

2:36:07

double standards i'm kind of a hypocrite

2:36:09

i love the criticized big oil

2:36:11

companies but then i still

2:36:14

you up my car

2:36:15

and so forth

2:36:18

senescence i'm guilty yeah

2:36:23

so just and more examples along

2:36:25

these lines

2:36:29

for example in relationships i noticed

2:36:31

double standards

2:36:33

for example

2:36:34

i might expect a girlfriend of mine to

2:36:37

accommodate my needs

2:36:40

and think of her being selfish when she's not doing

2:36:42

that then i might not

2:36:44

be as accommodating

2:36:46

the her needs and yet i

2:36:48

don't think of myself a selfish for doing that so

2:36:55

relationships is

2:36:57

sort of a category that

2:36:59

the

2:37:01

i haven't talked about

2:37:04

yet but it's actually very important like

2:37:06

if you want to have smoothed relationships have to be very careful

2:37:09

that you don't whole lot of bias or

2:37:11

double standards with

2:37:14

respect to your spouse

2:37:16

girlfriend boyfriend

2:37:18

or family members

2:37:21

that going to create a

2:37:23

imbalance

2:37:25

and then it's gonna create unnecessary drama

2:37:28

intentions and and battle that's

2:37:32

gonna corrupt your relationships so that's sort

2:37:34

of a actually very

2:37:36

important topic though as recently

2:37:39

the and mention until now make

2:37:41

sure you realize

2:37:43

the importance of double standards and relationships

2:37:50

though in conclusion be

2:37:52

vigilant when you're making justification than

2:37:54

rationalizations the

2:37:56

perspective for double standards you

2:37:59

often be

2:37:59

the how often

2:38:01

the have a sneaky double standard lurking in there

2:38:04

the general principle of this whatever

2:38:06

bar you set for yourself you have to color

2:38:08

or mean

2:38:10

whatever bar you set for some other person to clear

2:38:12

you have to be of the clear that bar to

2:38:15

for example hear from

2:38:19

if you don't want other people cursing you have to be

2:38:21

able to clear that by yourself if

2:38:24

you don't want other people

2:38:28

like if you're going to size people for

2:38:31

sexual scandals you have to have your

2:38:33

own sexual cravings under control if

2:38:37

you're gonna be

2:38:42

you know expecting and demanding

2:38:44

other people to be on time you have to be on time

2:38:47

if you demanded expect other people

2:38:49

to put out stellar work exceptional

2:38:51

new york flawless work with no mistakes you

2:38:54

have to be able to do it too and if you can't

2:38:57

then you have to either

2:38:58

and lower your bar for others

2:39:04

if you want others to be nonpartisan you have to be

2:39:06

nonpartisan if

2:39:08

you want others to be non biased you to be non biased

2:39:10

if you want others to be selfless

2:39:13

you have to be selfless

2:39:14

if

2:39:18

you want others to not be dramatic an emotional

2:39:21

you have to have your emotions under control

2:39:25

this

2:39:29

is intellectual honesty

2:39:31

the cultivation of intellectual

2:39:34

honesty something that really isn't taught in school

2:39:36

but it's so important

2:39:39

so important

2:39:42

there was one of the things is destroying our culture

2:39:45

and our politics right now is that there's

2:39:47

so little intellectual honesty

2:39:52

the was

2:39:53

many of the actors who are talking

2:39:56

about politics

2:39:57

and culture

2:40:01

in this me that it's impossible to have

2:40:04

a genuine dialogue

2:40:06

instead what we have it as people barking at each

2:40:08

other and demonizing each other it's tribal

2:40:11

warfare

2:40:12

the culture wars

2:40:16

here's a tip for you make a distinction in

2:40:19

your mind

2:40:21

a bad faith actors

2:40:24

that v doctors are people who have no intellectual

2:40:26

integrity and who

2:40:28

do not care about integrity or truth

2:40:33

these would be people like sean

2:40:35

hannity carlson

2:40:39

ben shapiro

2:40:41

these

2:40:43

are bad faith actors

2:40:46

alex jones

2:40:48

now i mean i mention some very obvious cases

2:40:50

of people on the on

2:40:53

the right you can also find maybe some bad actors

2:40:55

of people on left but

2:40:59

in general you should not listen to people who are bad

2:41:01

faith actors you should not communicate with

2:41:03

a nice not try to debate with them

2:41:05

stop debating with bad faith actors

2:41:08

it's a complete waste your time only

2:41:11

engage in dialogue with

2:41:13

people who have

2:41:15

a relatively high level of intellectual integrity

2:41:18

this

2:41:21

will save you lot of castle

2:41:23

and

2:41:24

the spinning wheel

2:41:27

intellectually spitting your will has that's

2:41:29

mostly what the public

2:41:31

intellectual discourse is that we see

2:41:34

whether it's about politics or god or religion

2:41:36

or science most of it is just intellectual

2:41:38

spitting of the wheels so be very

2:41:40

careful

2:41:42

that

2:41:43

you don't waste decades and

2:41:45

he needs out years and decades of your life

2:41:48

2:42:20

their wheels mentally masturbating going

2:42:22

over the same the bullshit

2:42:25
