I didnt realize he was such a hot button issue with people. I saw some YouTube video with him a week ago, and have been watching his vids ever since.

He says some things that I disagree with, but so does everyone. I honestly dont get why hes so controversial? He seems respectful enough while voicing his opinions, and its good to listen to people who you dont agree with as well.

Some people are contrarians, some people are brainwashed SJWs, some people think they're smarter than they really are (at least two posters ITT fall under this category). And then there are people who actually disagree with the majority of what he says and thinks he has nothing to offer them inteectually or philosophically. I don't think I've actually met someone truly part of that last group tho I've met people claiming to be.

But who knows? I could be wrong. Maybe Peterson is truly a hack. I don't think so tho. Lol especially seeing the argent's against him. One guy spent paragraphs and paragraphs trying to argue that since JP said that it's a good idea to stand.up straight withgokd posture, that means he was promoting the use of "power poses" which have been lroven to not do what people claim they do, so therefore everything he says is wrong and no one should pay attention to him. Lol because be said to stand up straight with good posture, never mentioning power poses or their supposed benefits. I could go on listing other incredibly stupid and nitpicky Arguments against him, all of which require the same amount of mental.gymnastics as that first one, but it's a waste if time and frankly annoys me.
