Except you tend to define "Everyone who is not cruel" as "everyone who doesn't oppose my agenda"

No, I define cruelty as cruelty. For example, exploiting anti-transgender animus for profit is cruel. I would not have any compassion for the misfortune of a such a person.
I was at the store the other day with my gf. After we ordered and got our food we sat down. A lady walked in wearing a save the planet shirt with something about PETA on it. She’s standing 10-15 feet away from the register while someone else was ordering. Not long after that a man walks in and walks past her to the register to order. She rebuffs and says “hey I’m in line”. He says “ok” and walks to stand behind her. She says “don’t stand to close to me, you stink” the guy askes her why she’s being so rude, then starts mumbling. They go back and forth for a while and I even ask the lady why’s she’s being so rude. She ignores and gets her sugary drink off to the side.
The guy and I start talking about the incident basically right in front of her. I said she was being rude and awful. She goes back to get her food and leaves. He says to her “I bet you voted for Trump.”
In reality she was some virtue signaling spinster. She was white, the man was Mexican. Before we left I said to him “I voted for Trump, don’t believe everything you hear.” His body language changed immediately and said “hey good point and thanked me.”
The guy obviously voted for Hillary or just didn’t like Trump for xyz. Your premise is wrong that all conservators care about is each other is not true.

Yes, we are and shit happens. Nobody really has a plan when the world punches you in the face. We all do the best we can, which would have been a truer more honest philosophy for Jordan to expound, but made him a lot less money. Nobody normal likes to see anybody in rehab, and watching someone you love die is always hell. I wish him well and hope he recovers. I also hope he understands the world is more complex and no easy answers exist often.
Not sure, it seems pointing out some sick folk were celebrating this triggered people. Everything was 100% on topic until "but Hillary" had to be injected into it. Because anything that makes progressives look remotely bad needs to be immediately countered, the NPC's are programmed that way.

To be honest this is little different to Nietsches' breakdown over the beaten horse. Both, although Petersons experience is far worse in my opinion are things that would upset anyone normal and under the right crcumstances seriously damage the psyche. People are far simpler emotionally than philosphies and the world is a very much harder more complex world for people who try to never bend, sometimes we all have to roll with a punch or two. It's not hypocrisy on Peterson's part because until you taste real shit you can't imagine how nasty it is. He now I suspect gets it.

Wait, folk were trying to say this shows hypocrisy? Sad.

We all think nothing can touch us until we lose something that really matters, be it a partner, kid, the ability to walk, our liberty. Jordan lived in a very rareified world, reality can become a game when you are lucky and it brings you crashing down harder when things go wrong. Humility is reserved for those of us who have learnt or been taught it by life. Like Broly said, and on this Rob I agree, "we are only human", however it takes adversity to realise it. No easy answers exist.
Someone in the past had a discussion about JP and there was a video of him on Joe Rogan discussing how he (JP) hadn't eaten or slept something weird for "literally" 30 days. He was showing signs of drug use back then (the symptoms were easy to see.)
Not many people like to watch someone spiral, especially in their "off" moments. Best of luck to JP and anyone else that has an addiction problem.
It's a shame that a guy who dedicates a significant part of his life to helping young men become more emotionally resilient struggles with it himself. Mental illness can affect anyone and I wish him well in his recovery. His wife too.
