Resentment Reframed as Epiphany

There’s an interesting moment in the book where Peterson talks about resentment as a “revelatory” emotion that can mean one of two things. One, you feel it because you’re immature, in which case you just need to buck up. Two, you feel resentment because you really are being oppressed or taken advantage of somehow. Your resentment shows you that something needs to change or that you need to assert yourself in relation to other people.

Peterson sounds like a stereotypical postmodernist

Corboy note:

Decades ago the Kinks wrote a song, Paranoia Will Destroya.

Resentment is even more destructive - paranoics are boring and scary
and usually do not succeed in creating mass movements.

Unfortunately resentment is readily shared as social contagion because so many of us are frustrated and is a far more exploitable emotion than paranoia.

We need someone to wrote a very catchy song along the lines of Resentment Will Destroy Us if Media Pundits Deploy Us
