As a non-sciencey person, can someone explain the chasm of ignorance?

I personally don’t find it funny because these types of jokes essentially boil down to “I used a concept outside of its context, and for that reason alone it is funny”. However, with a lot of these jokes the context is so narrow (i.e. programming) that they are almost universally not understood by wider audiences.

I completely disagree. Based off of your comment it seems that you did not absorb the article whatsoever.

There are many good examples in the article of Peterson presenting opinion as indisputable fact and obscuring ideas with complex language. Particularly when he is challenged based on those ideas.

Not to mention the examples of how he treats children and others. It is an absolutely wild read. Lengthy but eye-opening.

Edit: it also exposes how the ideas that his core philosophy is built on are simplistic at best and often flat out wrong or intentionally disingenuous.

The article above does a good job of providing many examples and a breakdown. It’s long, but worth it.

As a non-American trying to understand, why do you feel this policy is a little shitty?

I could definitely see this person being a troll. What’s wild though is that it seems the linked article was written in earnest.

Looking forward to reading the comments section of this article right after I finish my broken glass cocktail.
