    Normal person: I don’t like the color pink that much.
    JP: The praxis of the individuals that vouch for the genuineness of their attraction to the pink color is one done, typically by the female sex. A crucial characteristic that affects my decision in this matter is that i am male. Therefore the interests that I possess are prohibited from aligning with those of the female sex, meaning I am disallowed from finding pink agreeable.

    Fun fact about Jordan Peterson. As my sole 18th birthday present, my parents bought me a Jordan Peterson book, and forced me to read it, because they are worried I'm trans and wanted to get me to "be on a good path". I am indeed trans. The book was shit and full of racism and sexism. The guy thinks human women exist to make men uncomfortable and feel shitty, and blames them all. It is really sad.

      kennieskloset he doesn’t account for any variables that are historical or environmental and instead insinuates that people are.. genetically a certain way or that they choose to be a certain way and that white people have just “chosen” better. It echoes a lot of eugenics and other incredibly racist philosophies that portray people who are anything other than white as violent or bad. He does this in different dosages and contexts- but it generally boils down to that. It amazes me how many stupid ideas he just packages in a pseudo intellectual way, and a lot of vulnerable people eat it right out of his hands.

    This is actually a very sinister video. What he's saying is that the people who criticize him on twitter should not have the right to have a voice that is valued at the same level as his. This is because they haven't "earned" that voice through jumping through hoops and getting tons of followers. He is literally saying that ordinary citizens do not deserve a voice, and only those with a following -- like a monarch, a politician, a billionaire, etc. -- should be allowed to have any public, written opinion. This is how people in power keep power, by preventing the population from dissenting. He is literally saying that the people who are governed don't deserve to have a say, because it they were "credible" enough to have that say, they'd be the governor. Also, twitter does not owe him a platform. Twitter is a private company and they have the right to deny anyone service. You cannot fight for laws that allow discrimination by private companies, then throw a fit when you are the one being discriminated against! you made the bed, Dr. Peterson.
    edit: I'm an ambitious phd student and this proposed study is such a bad research design. No one in their right mind would run a study like that. He has no control group, no way of measuring these variables, no way of screening out alternative causes -- man is bigoted AND bad at research. Holy sh!t, man.

    The most impressive thing Peterson has ever done is the fact that he has to be debunked by so many different disciplines because he talks about so much stuff he doesn't understand. From Biologist, to the Bar association of Canada, economics, fellow psychologists, philosophers, even supermodels are making fun of him. I'd di e of embrassement if I said so even half the amount of things he said that were just so wrong and easily debunkable, just the line about staying awake for 27 days due to Apple Cider would be to much on it's own. Yet for Peterson he just goes on, it's fascinating how one man can have such an undeserved ego and prefers to be ignorant on every topic he talks about, his the defintion of Dunning Kruger.

Like "that means I wrote it" because he is using academic language and targeting it at the "everyday Joe" - it's good to see you lads are smart enough to understand and see through it because it is a horrible manipulation tactic that probably works on s lot of people.

He's just taking the stupid, angry people's most regressive and and bigoted beliefs and terting them up so that when his audience hears what they already believe, they feel justified in said belief, because now it's all been intellectually laundered for them. He's one of hundreds in the States.

    What makes me the most sad about the whole Jordan Peterson thing is he has made a mockery of psychology and it's usefulness in understanding and navigating the ever-evolving interpersonal and societal changes we are all going through. I love this field and people like him have destroyed my faith in the leaders of the field and their willingness to actually provide real, objective, apolitical help to people. They need to be able to provide advice and theory and research that challenge or offend their personal beliefs about how the world works, depending on what might be best for their patient or the people listening to them. You can't create a group of people who just follow your philosophy like a Messiah.
    Edit: FTW - as someone who understands psychology-prof speak and has spent years reading and critiquing psychology papers as a way of learning how to properly and effectively get a point across - I cannot understand half of what Peterson is trying to say. Most of the time he just speaks in a jumbled mess of key words like he's an AI bot in its first iteration that is being designed to write abstracts for research papers. It's incomprehensible.

It's pretentious and it's not the easiest way to explain things, but at least it makes sense. But that requires an actual understanding of both the words you're using and the concept you're trying to get across. Peterson has neither and it's an excellent way of making viewers who wouldn't understand the concept or the words feel smart because Peterson mixes those types of sentences in with blatant statements of facist ideology they already agree with.

      It's called doublespeak. They make sure to make what they say too fancy and complex to understand so others will think that they are smarter than them; so smart, in fact, that they can't even understand what's being said. Doublespeak has other characteristics too, such as vague and euphemistic language, but that's essentially it. What they are saying isn't smart, so they have to make it sound smart, and you can't deny that what's being said isn't smart when you don't understand what they're saying in the first place. A lot of pseudointellectuals and politicians, when using doublespeak, will imply that you aren't smart enough to understand them, so when they respond to your questions or say things, you can't just respond "What? I don't get what you mean." without it seeming like you're not smart, so people just back away and pretend they understood and not try to analyze it. Politics and other things can be talked about without talking like this, but if they drop the doublespeak, they wouldn't seem smart to the people who fall for the illusion.

      He "avoids" the accusation by implying that power/influence and competence are correlated. "It's not that you don't deserve to have a voice because you don't have the reach, it's that you don't have the reach because you don't deserve to have a voice (because you don't have the competence)"

      What do you think is behind the appeal of someone like Jordan Peterson who wraps a distinctly conservative worldview into general self-help and advice? Why do you think his advice is appealing to many?
      What do you think is behind the appeal of Donald Trump? It is similar. You appeal to people who feel that they are losing their power, who think that the gains of other groups come at their expense. People who believe that progress is a zero sum game. Those are the people who are vulnerable to an appeal to conservatism. They want to go back to the halcyon days of yore when things were simpler, when things were, as they perceive, better. The thing is, things were not better for everyone back in those days. They were better for the segment of the population that finds Jordan Peterson appealing.
      It isn't lost on me that you are willfully misunderstanding what I was saying. It isn't societal change in America "as we speak" , it is change that has been happening for a while and ideally would continue and speed up. If you are a traditional white male from your perspective the gains of women, minorities, groups that had been disenfranchised, all of their gains feel like they come at your expense. Someone like Jordan Peterson says women should have children in their early twenties rather than competing with men in the workplace. He says hierarchy is good and divine! God made hierarchy, men are order and women are chaos. He'll tell you that women wear makeup in the workplace to simulate sexual arousal in order to attract men. It isn't true, but if you are an angry disaffected alienated man, it feels true to you. All of this is extremely appealing to someone who feels at a loss and suspects that their share of power and influence is being reduced. If you are used to having the lion's share, equality feels like oppression when it isn't.

Or just things like you should clean up your room before venturing out into the world to create positive change? That's another of his aphorisms. He is not a fan of younger people working for social change, for various reasons.
      Jordan Peterson is attractive to people who feel lost, confused, many of them angry in a changing world where they aren't sure of their role anymore. People who yearn for the halcyon days of yore when things were more clear cut.
      The problem with those so-called halcyon days is that they weren't, not for most people. Not for women, not for minorities, not for people who were different in any way. They were great though for people who were white, male and middle class. For those folks, the slightest leveling of the playing field feels like oppression now. Of course they want to return to the past, return to a time when women didn't compete in the workplace. Jordan Peterson says women should be having children in their early twenties and if they aren't, they are emotionally damaged. He believes that women and men working together in the workplace is an experiment that we might well do without.
      How am I better equipped? I'm older, and I know more. I've read his books, I can critique them effectively and the thinking that underpins them.
