Jordan Peterson said: a harmless man is not a good man, a good man is a dangerous man who has that under control. I have that quote on my wall, and I've been thinking about it for a long time. In this episode I work through what it actually means to be strong versus weak — strong men take responsibility, weak men capitulate to their biology and demand the world conform to them. I bring in the Western mythos of the dragon, the gold, and the princess, the freedom paradox that real freedom comes through restraint, and the practical anchor that builds discipline from nothing: ten push-ups a day, every day, no matter how you feel. The closer: a rabbit cannot hurt you, but it also cannot defend you. Virtue requires capacity for harm under control.
