Are you happy with your place in the dominance hierarchy?

>> No.15154342

>>15154338
No, but I'm far too paranoid to handle being anything more than the rodent that I am.

>> No.15154345

Am I the supreme ruler of all that I survey? Do all my enemies and potential rivals lie dead from causes that could never be traced back to me? Is my progeny secured for generations to come?

If the answer to any of these questions is no, how could I ever say yes?

I agree to some extent.
But its more like im too afraid to test my limits.
And people get annoyed real quick once you start testing their limits.

It seems like the dominance hierarchy is mostly a matter of who can be the loudest and pushiest man in the room. Never cared for it.

Jordan clearly is not normal enough to be a socialite. He skimmed by as an academic probably by stroke of luck, against the better judgement of his inner life. His success as a professor gave him the confidence to keep pushing to higher heights, but it's obvious he isn't acclimated for that environment. For an introvert, oversocialization is a poison. He will never recover from this, but will probably write some of his best work now.

What dominance hierarchy? I don't have any friends and the only contact I have is bossing my autistic dad around

I must improve my standing among women, so I cannot say that I am, at least in that respect.

For whatever reason I watched his entire q&a appearance last night. It might be one of the worst things I've ever seen in my life. Incredibly, I think the audience was actually the most revolting part.

Could you tell me about it?

For those that don't know, q&a is a TV show in Australia in which politicians and other public figures are invited to answer and discuss topical questions from the audience. Peterson went on the show early last year. There are so many problems with the proceeding events I don't think I can describe them all. It's such a harrowing concoction of Peterson himself, the revolting audience members who are Peterson fans, the audience members who are histrionically anti-Peterson, Tony Jones' stupid questions, a particularly horrible video question from Milo Yianapolopoololous, the nutters that think Australia has been taken over by marxism, the condescending feminist bores, the simple-minded Liberal party guy... It's all too much.

For the record, the second worst episode of q&a of all time is the one with Dan Savage and Peter Hitchens, which is just about as excruciating as you can imagine

it fucking sucks that women can reject low status males in the sexual hierarchy. Mating is a human right. If a person wants to fuck they should not be limited by means or prejudice to do so.
I need to cum and a woman needs to gargle my bonkjuice. NOW

This is about par for the course with that program. Just about any halfway insightful guest is bound to be talked over for the majority of their allotted time, with the rest of it spent being misinterpreted and strawmanned into oblivion.

The one saving grace of that episode is that they showed one of my tweets on air. Make sure to never watch the Hitchens or Zizek appearances as they're particularly unfortunate and end up wasted on everyone around them.

Dan Savage might be the worst panel member I've ever seen in the show's history, which is something special.
I have a soft spot for Germaine though, she's generally got good things to say about whatever the subject is, though that show doesn't bring out the best in anyone. She was great on the Shakespeare special.
