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
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

2:41:57
the people you listen to all they're doing is just
2:41:59
into
2:41:59
the spinning
2:42:00

2:42:13
what religion is
2:42:16
what healthy politics is are never
2:42:18
going to understand these things because are just intellectually spinning
2:42:20
their wheels mentally masturbating going
2:42:22
over the same the bullshit
2:42:25
over and over and over interest debating it endlessly
2:42:27
we're going
