and on a public platform like youtube i dont blame him for it

You cant come with the best answer if you dont hear the best question

You do realize he takes ages to come up with the best answer too

If you ask sam harris or richard dawkins "Do you believe in god" they'll just say "no"
If you ask Jordan peterson he'll be like "What is god?"

It would just prolong the entire thing

WHAT IS GODD??? BABBY DONT SMITE ME! DONT SMITE ME! NO MOREE

Ive heard people saying that Peterson would stay there for a really long time to talk with the comers.

I think that's a core facet of someone like Peterson. He doesn't want to be duped into saying something that gets him in hot water.

And I think it's because he thinks in a very deep detailed way.

Well he is a professor of psychology

Clinical psycology

But I've never really followed him that much, so I'm mostly just guessing.

I bet if you ask peterson if it's raining he'll say "Why do you think it's raining? what is rain? At what extent is water falling from the sky counted as rain?"

Okay, then look at the cathy newman interview uncut

lol i watched his shizz when teh pronoun thing was a big story before it got picked up internationally

She keeps trying to get a bad word out of him

Fails

I mean people like peterson and brett became famous because of the rage directed at them

I found Doc J.B.Peterson when I delved into linguistics

I love that cathy newman interview

I didnt, she was realyl cringy

And false accusations irritate me

I liked it. I think it showed a key fundamental issue in the modern age.

then listened to his Uni lectures. came in my pants when he covers nazi germany and the soviet union during the existentialist part of his personality course

His lections are good

"Why should your right to free speech override a trans person's right to be offended?"

"Why should you have the right to ask me these questions? This interview has been very uncomfortable for me."

"..."

"Gotcha"

We had the old timer with detailed thoughts who is careful to examine truth and we had the young star who is fundamentally out to score points and embarrass people.

It's like, Humanities Pre-1990 versus humanities Post-2000.

lol yeah the thing is he kinda has to play those sort of gotcha politics games

Like come on, how many conversations have you heard where a guy literally goes "GOTCHA!"

The gotcha is silent most of the time

tbh postmodernistm and marxism was a thing like 1940s-50ish

alot for me

Her milo yiannapoulos interview was great too

well their sort of melding and conglomeration

more by accident tho than the clear meld of the modern day

Honestly, I think it's alot of it. Too. He's smart enough to not get easily dismissed and careful enough to have not gotten himself removed. But he speaks for positions I think alot of people hold but can't say.

yeah the silent majority lol

True, Postmodernism was early 20th -late 1960s, but it never really dominated the academic mainstream until after the culture wars of the 90s.

More like the silent indifferents really.
