Are they protesting the actual burning of the wooden man, like that’s a huge environmental hazard? Have they not heard of forest fires?
Ton of the people blocked are in trucks and off-road vehicles in a desert. Go around the dipshits? Surely your trucks can handle being off road for 10 feet.
I can’t speak for the sand in that area personally, but it’s quite possible that trying to drive in it won’t get you far before you need to be towed out of it. Maybe someone can chime in, that’s taken that route.
They started blocking the way around too. Additionally, why should people risk damaging their own vehicles just because of the selfishness of a few assholes?
Man that reason I made up for why they are protesting sure makes these protesters dumb.
Maybe it’s because you got 80.000 tech bros and other rich assholes driving hundreds of miles in gas guzzling trucks and RVs to have a bourgeoisie orgy and leave a huge mess behind.
The protesters were actually focusing on the people who fly their private jets into burning man. IIRC Burning man has a private airstrip and celebrities will fly in on the jets, which is environmentally terrible and goes against the ethos of the group.
The protesters were blockading the road calling on BM to ban private jets from the event. As well as a few other demands.
I downvote anything with Jordan Peterson’s name in a positive or neutral context, just to be safe before watching. I’ve reversed my vote. You’re okay OP.
BTW, JayPee fans please downvote me too. Your disapproval nourishes me.
People here very rarely click through to videos (I’m working on that). In the future I recommend putting comedy or satire somewhere in the title so people don’t assume it’s an endorsement.
The video is called “the red pill lie” and if you watch it he’s bashing the red pill folks misleading young men pretty hard. He’s definitely not a red piller himself

I think the true conversation there got derailed by semantics. Clearly he feels anger but what I think he was asking was if it is healthy to always shut it down and internalize it. In my opinion, the answer to that was a resounding “no”. By not dealing with that anger, even when it’s disguised as “feeling dumb” (self-deprecation or sometimes even self-hate) or frustration, he has allowed it to fester, take up emotional real estate in his mind, and always be there waiting to bubble up or straight up burst when something seemingly unrelated triggers it.
I think Garnt was on the right emotional track originally. He intuitively knows that he has shit he should deal with rather than internalize. This is why I do not recommend taking the words of your therapy as gospel. Ultimately, if you are able to be self aware as Garnt seems to be, you will know you better. Therapy is a way to guide you towards the answers you seek or didn’t even know you were seeking. Therapy is not there to give you the answers. Maybe, hopefully, it is there to help you ask better questions.
I also clearly felt that he knew something had to be addressed and I also hope that as you mentioned he might feel more empowered to ask the right questions to himself now and be better at exploring this issue he has.
And your comment about therapy deeply resonates with me so thanks for sharing that I haven’t had it my feelings regarding it so succinctly spelled out before.
I don’t know all that much about his other content, but I feel he’s quite good at expressing his views and experiences.
And while I think there are many many topics for men’s liberation in general, I thought maybe a “less formal” post might also feel more approachable with less emphasis on theory or direct mentions of sociological issues.
The Left has failed in men insofar as it sanctions (and even encourages) hate towards men.
Boys grow up seeing acceptable misandry every day on their social media. They’re implicitly taught to think less of themselves simply for being male on their feeds - and that’s on top of the age-old societal message that men are disposable, their pain is ignorable, and that they are always replaceable.
So it’s not just the Left, no, but the wing that is supposed to challenge the status quo, that is supposed to represent progress and justice, shouldn’t be the wing that’s preaches it’s okay to hate men, to be contemptuous of men, or to demonize men.
