Part 1: {The First Broad Set of Themes - that I just happened to use in my edit}
Theme A: {Poverty, Wealth Inequality, Economic Systems}

An older description I wrote: 
Part of my intention is to bring awareness to a much-needed figure named Peter Joseph, who, in my opinion, belongs on the same stage with Sam Harris to discuss a rational and plausible account of Capitalism and Social Inequality.

Another Comment I made:
I plan adding a "(i)." attached at the end of already existing videos on this playlist. 
For example: 
Peter Joseph Jordan Peterson - Part 3Bi - Untangling the Intellectual Dark Web 
Peter Joseph Jordan Peterson - Part 3Bii - Untangling the Intellectual Dark Web 

The roman numerals will indicate that I am using that mash-up video and adding more (eg speakers, perhaps taking stuff out things of less relevance, or combining clips from other mashups to it). But I'll try to keep in mind a general consideration for the duration. 

If some of the clips are edited in a way that makes you confused as to my interpretation, this might be useful: I am trying to represent enough of each of speaker not proportional to the speakers, but proportional to creative flow and selected themes. 

Then, some time later I got a comment from:
Rob See: "I can appreciate your videos as mash-ups, but I don't really understand the point."

To which I answered and saw appropriate to post as my updated description: 
Mainly personal clarity. My intent has evolved. This used to just be a hobby I enjoyed for my own understanding and rewatching. But then I decided to make them public. A few years ago I was trying to tweet Peter and Sam to do a live event together. Peter got back to me saying he was open-minded. Sam hadn’t. So I began trying to get the public to make this reality come about through my edits. 

But as of now I am no longer trying to organize their introductions as quickly as before. I’d simply be happy to see these ideas of Peter’s be considered by the current intelligentsia. So I decided to broaden awareness by merging such lines of argument together from every side and see what comes of the overarching themes that develop afterward. Sort of like a story that Alan Watts tells of the Japanese artist who got really drunk on rice wine, then when drunk, dipped his hair in ink, sloshed it over the canvas and then drew in the horizon line, vanishing point, until the final touches produced a unique work. So he started not knowing what his project was going to be about, allowing some initial chaos, and then added in order afterward, producing the unfamiliar into recognizable structures. 

With that motivation in mind, it’s a project that is best left as a variable until it takes its own shape over time. So last night I decided to give more order to how this playlist and miniseries is to be understood. I appreciate your patience as the themes evolved over my constant updating of it. I encourage you and others of the public to let me know something I haven't that I could eventually correct when I come around to it again. Let me know what themes were discussed. That would help me in classifying the project sooner and in making for a later re-edit having updated the spots that can be improved.  :)
