This video tackles another part of Rule 8 ("Tell the truth - or, at least, don't lie") from Jordan B. Peterson's "12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos."


In this portion (don't even make it through a full section), Peterson makes the case for there being two types of language: truth and manipulation. Then we're told to be bold and truthful because of epigenetics. I contend nu-uh, with some science to back up why not.


We're also doing a test with this video: I've uploaded the f4v file instead of converting it to avi for upload. If it looks particularly different, that would be why. Hopefully it doesn't so I can save a processing step in the future.
