Jordan Peterson on Science as a Tool Used by Ideological Authoritarians
This is a short segment taken from an hour long interview with Stephen Crowder here: https://youtu.be/HVeEBdqioB8?t=2880
Peterson talks about how true science can not prove anything. Science must not be used to dictate policy. Anyone using it that way is ideologically driven and trying to use "science" to force you to do something you probably don't want to do.
"'While people will often say that science "proves" something, you must understand that it does not. Science is built on the scientific method, which is not a method by which things are proven. It is a method by which evidence is accumulated. The more evidence that accumulates in favor of a theory or law, the more confidence you can have in that theory or law. However, theories and laws cannot be proven, because the evidence used to confirm them might be flawed or incomplete. This is important enough to emphasize again. Science cannot prove anything.
When it comes to science, even the most treasured scientific laws and theories might be shown to be wrong. As a result, science is a tentative process. All good scientists must be willing to discard or modify even the most well-accepted theory or law, if new data demonstrates that there is something wrong with it.
If you are using a scientific hypothesis or theory to make predictions, you will have to test those predictions to see if they are true."

Michael Malice Destroys Public Schools
Taken from full interview here: https://youtu.be/EQlw-si8rt4?t=2827
If anyone is listening to me listening to my advice, focus on government schools. Because government schools are literal prisons for children and the only place many people experience violence in their lifetimes. And now that’s one of the silver linings of these lockdowns that increasing numbers of people regardless of their ideology realize just how depraved and dangerous these schools are and are taking their kids out. So if conservatives are skeptical of the government as they say, do not hand your children over to these people to raise them for you and be surprised when they come out despising you and everything you stand for.

Rooster Attack
On 9/15/12 I took my family to visit a friend's house to help him "process" some chickens. They had a rooster. I've never been around a rooster before and wasn't keeping a good enough eye on Ezekiel. The rooster, however, was. Zeke got too close and the rooster decided to show him who was boss. Zeke got away without a scratch, but not for lack of trying on the rooster's part. He ran after Zeke, jumped up, and kicked him with both feet while trying to peck at him. It was a young rooster, so, lack of experience was probably part of what helped Zeke get away completely unharmed. Although unharmed, he was not unchanged. Listen to him retell the story...
