Briefly, Jordan Peterson on Socialism

There are videos on the internet of Dr. Jordan Peterson speaking to an audience for hours at a time. Even after going for so long, we are often left thinking he had more to say. Love him or hate him, he’s definitely able to keep going on a single topic for an extended period of time.

This is why following people like him on social media can be fulfilling. Sometimes, we get tiny gems of insights that get to the point. Here’s such an insight:

Socialism far too easily
degenerates into the doctrine
that every successful person
is a criminal

Peasants:
that means everything you’ve done personally
that is good
is theft

Is that the world you want?

I’m not sure if he was being poetic with his odd formatting or if he was just stoned.
