Need a plate of generic, insipid platitudes with a giant helping of bad science and misogyny?

I listened to him for a little bit and sounded sensible, but I see a lot of people hate him and sounds like he found some fans and double down and a shit show to cater to them. I don’t know enough to have an opinion lol

The problem with him and people like him is that they start off with truth, and then slowly devolve into a conclusion they drew from that kernel of truth and before you know it they're operating completely on their conclusions and personal ideas instead of the actual data they began with. Teaching as if their conclusions are just as valid.

It's a similar strategy to how most religious leaders operate, when giving a sermon. They read the text and then change its meaning to whatever fits their narrative and interpretation best, then they spend the next hour preaching their ideas with the root authority of the audience largely unmentioned after that.

Do you have a source for Peterson having done this?

Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/hSNWkRw53Jo?si=rCJA_3-QaANHSQX9

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source, check me out at GitHub.

Yeah, that's the joke he makes in the video.
