Jordan Peterson:

The fundamental problem is that people are not taking on enough responsibility. And because they're not taking on enough responsibility, their lives are meaningless. And they're suffering. And they're resentful. And they're angry. And they're looking for someone to blame. And they're easy prey for demagogues.
