Buzzword Psychology

Meaningless drivel. Things like “goal” or “shared vision.” And the assertion that you need these things is conjecture promulgated as fact.

Dr. Jordan Baalenciaga PeepPorp “You can only feel positive emotion in relationship to a goal”

Hym “This a prime example of Jordan Peterson (in the words of Brandon Shiff) stating conjecture as fact. See, he knows he’s doing it and he knows that it’s wrong for him to do it but he’s just going to keep doing it. Because right and wrong don’t matter to Jordan Peterson. The only thing that matters to Jordan Peterson is the preservation of his own will. Which is why he’s so obsessed with not being manipulated. YOUR will (on the other hand) is irrelevant. What you believe is irrelevant (to Dr. Jordan Peterson). And it’s demonstrably untrue. What about the weekend, Jordan? Was it my ‘goal’ to not work for a couple of days? No. But I feel positive emotion none the less. How about finding 20 dollar bill on the sidewalk. Positive emotion? Yes. Was it my goal to find money on the sidewalk? No.”

Dr. Qwertyuiop asdfghjkl “Anyone can find the exception!”

Hym “It’s not that there’s AN exception. It’s that that are so many exceptions that it makes it impossible for what you’re saying to be true. It’s the same with your ‘shared vision’ nonsense. You use these vague, amorphous terms to disguise the sophistry. How is a ‘shared vision’ and different from a ‘predictive model?’ I’m referring (of course) to your argument about climate change. This ‘share vision’ is not only unnecessary but it doesn’t really mean anything. And what happened to ‘not doing things that you know to be wrong and stupid?’ That’s what you do. It isn’t for you. Your entire propositional ethic is what is convenient for OTHER PEOPLE to do so that YOU don’t have to deal with them. OOHHH!!! 😱 That’s what this is! It’s YOU getting out of having to do therapy! That’s YOUR goal. Therapy was miserable and depressing for you because of how tragic people’s lives are, and now you don’t have to do it. You can ‘help people’ (who don’t actually need help) by promulgating your flawed ethic (that doesn’t hold up to scrutiny) and get that sweet, sweet positive emotion without having to do things you don’t want to do. Which is the definition of ‘moving towards a goal’ by the way. Doing things you don’t want to do. THAT IS HILARIOUS! HA! That’s the point of your buzzword psychology. Rendering therapy obsolete through sophistry.”

Dr. Gargamel Potara “You can’t think so accept my propositions and die quietly regardless of the outcome!”
