lol
Touring and debating must be tiresome, and he is in a way very neurotic. He has a track record for not being at ease
so I empathise
like i said earier, he brought it on himself by going that route, and i think he's a bit of a showman and charlatan so it's hard fo rme to sympathize with that
I won't even get into the whole "whose pain is worse" thing as a vet, etc
Maybe he shouldn't have taken the meds
tough it out like a person with strong character as he preaches
take the meds if they help, but especially if you are going to try and sell self help books
I firmly believe that learning to cope is important
especialyl considering the TOPIC of his talks and etc
Then there was his situation in court where he got thrown out as an 'expert' witness
you cannot naively live with everything handed to you on a silver plate because you complain. Own up
that shit was hilarious
learning to cope is important, more important is learning and RESPECTING your limitatinos
Amen. We cannot simply redefine
I might identify as a sexy man, but if I do not own the factors that make me so and if I do not behave in a way that builds myself into it, I will not be perceived as such
and it's me who is to blame
you cannot prescribe what others do unto yourself
it's out of your circle of control
so i mean, how may passes does a guy like that get
So he used a lackluster method for personality assessment?=
that is a bit reckless
that's from a murder trial i believe
he was thrown out as an expert witness
yup, murder trial
so imagine if he had conned his way to get his testimony admitted, somebody could have gone to jail or whatever
Best to just take his input it and draw your own conclusions, but that's not enough if you're an expert, I assume
to even insert yourself into a situation like that just shows what kind of person he is
What did he have to gain?
same shit he gained by getting invovled in c16
how much did his patreon make a month at one point?
70k a month?
Lots, like that
@Auspexel Like sh0t said before, ignore his commentary on philosophy and focus on his psychology. That's his expertise since he studies the field of course, I suggest picking up maps of meaning, that book is decent.
Me and Peterson differ greatly, I'm a collectivist whilst he is an individualist, so there isn't anything that I particularly like about him. His understanding of postmodern philosophy and marxism is very bad, as was shown in his debate with Zizek and highlighted in the reddit thread as well.
that debate with zizek was horrible, from both of them
It was bad.
i don't really consider peterson an individualist either
I would qualify as one, he ain't my kind
@Throttles Agreed
