Summary

Dr. Peterson's extensive catalog is available now on DailyWire+: https://utm.io/ueSXh Alex Story and Dr. Jordan B. Peterson discuss biology and overpopulation, the misguided thinking behind eugenics, and the tendency of politics to weaponize our totalitarian impulses. Alex Story was an Olympic class rower for Great Britain, and attended the University of Cambridge. There he set the rowing course record against Oxford in the 1998 Boat Race, a record held for multiple decades. After suffering a career-ending back injury, Story turned his attention to politics, and quickly became a notable voice in the Conservative party. He stood for parliamentary office three times, representing some of the poorest areas in the country. Today he works in the finance sector as head of sales for a US brokerage firm. He has also become a writer, seeing his articles published weekly in magazines such as the National Inquirer and Express. —Links— Books Discussed in this episode: Fabianism and the Empire: A Manifesto by the Fabian Society https://www.amazon.com/Fabianism-Empire-Manifesto-Fabian-Society/dp/1375898779 The Descent of Man https://www.amazon.com/Descent-Man-Great-Minds/dp/1573921769 The Essential Keynes https://www.amazon.com/Essential-Keynes-John-Maynard/dp/1846148138 For Alex Story: Alex Story on Twitter https://twitter.com/alexpstory —Chapters— (0:00) Coming Up (1:05) Intro (3:36) Fatherhood, Manning Up (10:05) Rowing, In Pursuit of Glory (17:05) Privilege and Marxism (22:51) The Motivation of Power (28:00) Love Elevates (39:32) The Issue with the Dominance Hierarchy (47:36) Stability and Transformation (54:06) Predators and Protesters (55:43) Eugenics and the Imposition of Power (1:15:22) The Connection with Marxism (1:19:49) Orwell, Socialist Overpopulation (1:28:54) The Four Pillars of England's Educational Framework // SUPPORT THIS CHANNEL // Newsletter: https://mailchi.mp/jordanbpeterson.com/youtubesignup Donations: https://jordanbpeterson.com/donate // COURSES // Discovering Personality: https://jordanbpeterson.com/personality Self Authoring Suite: https://selfauthoring.com Understand Myself (personality test): https://understandmyself.com // BOOKS // Beyond Order: 12 More Rules for Life: https://jordanbpeterson.com/Beyond-Order 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos: https://jordanbpeterson.com/12-rules-for-life Maps of Meaning: The Architecture of Belief: https://jordanbpeterson.com/maps-of-meaning // LINKS // Website: https://jordanbpeterson.com Events: https://jordanbpeterson.com/events Blog: https://jordanbpeterson.com/blog Podcast: https://jordanbpeterson.com/podcast // SOCIAL // Twitter: https://twitter.com/jordanbpeterson Instagram: https://instagram.com/jordan.b.peterson Facebook: https://facebook.com/drjordanpeterson Telegram: https://t.me/DrJordanPeterson All socials: https://linktr.ee/drjordanbpeterson #JordanPeterson #JordanBPeterson #DrJordanPeterson #DrJordanBPeterson #DailyWirePlus
