CHASE HUGHES: Emotional Debt

MARTIN ARMSTRONG: Angel Merkel ADMITTED that she deliberately flooded Germany with third-world migrants to “stop the far right.” It was demographic warfare. It is outright TREASON.

J. MICHAEL WALLER: As George Kennan was to designing the US strategy to contain communism, the late Angelo Codevilla will be to laying the philosophical basis for modern American nationalism and how to defend it.

JORDAN PETERSON: you make yourself weak by engaging in deceit.

Poster's notes,
Jordan Peterson gave a raw, unflinching answer when asked why he fears weakness. He said weakness isn’t just harmless — it’s dangerous. When you make yourself weak through deceit, avoidance, or refusing to take responsibility, life hits you harder. That unnecessary suffering turns into bitterness, and bitterness easily becomes vengefulness. From there, he warned, “there is no limit.” Drawing from his deep study of 20th-century totalitarianism and the psychology of cruelty (from Auschwitz guards to school shooters), Peterson explained that weakness transforms people into something that can no longer bear existence — and that path leads to very dark places. It’s a sobering reminder that avoiding discomfort today often creates far greater monsters tomorrow.

What do you think — is Peterson right that weakness is the root of much deeper evil, or does this view go too far? 

TRANSCRIPT

Why are you afraid of being weak? 

Well, the weakness that I was referring to . . . it's fear, it's essentially fear of hell.  If you make yourself weak . . . life is very hard, if you make yourself weak and you suffer stupidly because of it, you will become bitter, and once you become bitter, you'll become vengeful and after vengeful there is no limit.  That's one of the things I learned from studying totalitarianism in the 20th century.  Because I studied it from the psychological perspective.  I wasn't interested in the mass movements I was interested in the motivations of the cruelest Auschwitz guard.  What was he up to?  Or the person who went and shot up the elementary school in Connecticut.  What was he up to exactly, just exactly where did he dwell.  And why it's like, well, weakness made him suffer stupidly and that made him cruel and that was just the beginning.  And so that weakness that's just if you make yourself weak by engaging in deceit.  If you fail to take responsibility, then you transform yourself into something that cannot bear to endure the structure of existence, and you will torture yourself and that leads to very bad places, very bad places.
