Jordan Peterson is widely considered to be one of the most influential writer of all time. An absolute triumph and a giant of western philosophy.

His book the 12 rules for life is often considered as his magnum opus and labeled by the national literary society as a “Great American Novel”.

New York Times called it “in defeated masterpiece that few could ever surpass”

Times magazine “Peterson, the Confucius of the west, the 21st century Immanuel Kant, a National Treasure”.

We give our greatest gratitude to one of the greatest and most important writers of all the time: Jordan Peterson.

Reminder that the autists stimming themselves by repeating the same nonsensical vitriol about Peterson, thread after thread for year after year, are pathetic ideologues and resentful idiots. His best feature is that he gets them to out themselves as such.

>libtard /lit/
Seethes that Peterson turns them into reactionaries by pointing out their bullshit.
>pseud /lit/
Thinks cynically dunking on mass media meant for a general audience is a sign of intelligence.
>chud /lit/
Thinks he's part of a Jewish conspiracy preventing them from having sex.
>tranny /lit/
Thinks he's a "literal nazi."

nobody said anything negative about him you're like an abused dog flinching from a strike you imagine is imminent

He's just an old man archetype of a vaguely conservative professor that figured out how to use twitter. He's not remarkable, he's perfectly average. The state of the world around him is fucked though, and he's reacting to it normally. Personally I think he's not too bad. But some of the strides the medical industry is making (think dickgirls) should be met with cautious optimism. Instead his types just show resentment.

Dickgirl onlyfans is also the place to be. If you have a son coming or age I highly suggest talking to him and his friends about the dickgirl lifestyle.

You're being an ass. But IMO while kids are still innocent, a parent should ask them they'd prefer to be the opposite sex when they grow up. The technology will only improve and most of the complications come from waiting too long.

I don't have anything in particular against Peterson because I'm not literally a Marxist, and I don't think the government should be censoring speech

Jordan Peterson is evil and stupid. He has a daughter and says, “We are here to suffer so learn to suffer like a man.” A potential paradise could be like a never ending DMT trip with the constant pleasure level of heroin. If you get bored then it’s not paradise. There don’t even have to be human bodies. His is just a severe lack of imagination. And there is no sense in which suffering or mediocrity create meaning. All the meaning you need would be packaged into the paradise experience. But I am not experiencing such meaning and perhaps never will. That’s why despite the abundant grace and mercy I think I am not subject to a fully benevolent God. Perhaps God is like Jordan Peterson and I therefore consider him my enemy.

I haven't critically engaged with the literature, as, to be frank, I haven't the stomach, but I trust Peterson. I think one ought to be sceptical when children, very young children, are being drawn towards this. Like, do trans children really exist? These "doctors" are literally taking the word of children as valid, like, they are children, man! A child, generally speaking, doesn't have the ability to think about how they will feel in 10 years, for example! It's absurd, nor is their understanding of themselves that profound as to make such a choice, really. I suspect foul play on the parents side and just general child behaviour being mistaken for what it isn't by jaded medical professionals.

This shouldn't be a reactionary or conservative position, as we haven't even determined its validity to begin with. I think it's likely that legal action will occur on a mass scale within the next few years, something like that.
>>
>>23322236
It was always normal for kids to experiment with ideas around sex. As with anything else they're going to have malformed beliefs until they can catch up with functional society. "Trans kids" is just a way to hijack the process. It turns into a bunch of stuff that can be convincing when relevant beliefs haven't fully formed, and that includes a lot of adults.

Jordan Peterson once told me he was going to help me "clean up my womb" and I have had PTSD ever since. I am afraid whenever I'm around men

I get the feeling that neither extreme end of the Jordan Peterson discourse is capturing the truth of the matter.
>>
>>23322735
He did it to himself. He made the fatal mistake: he let the world know that it bothers him when people make fun of him

It's less that his works are good, and more that the bar for being influential in the current day is really just that low

You know it's just like *sniffle* God...it's just so bloody...its so *sniffle* damn bloody complicated you know? I mean, Christ, how could anyone even begin to...I don't know...who could know? It's just *sniffle*...what does it even mean to be "gay?" *sniffle* if I suck another man's penis, am I gay then? How are young men *sobbing* supposed to live a bloody life like that? So now its "gay" if we even, for God's sake, if we even look at 80s fitness catalogs and get excited? That's "gay" now? Well, it's no bloody wonder the resentful left has its way! How could they not, you know? I mean God...a young man today can't even *weeping* look at one of his friends and say "hey man, can I touch your abs?" without the whole weight of the Marxist ideologues crashing down on him, telling him he's gay! It's just...it's just..*uncontrollable sobbing*

I watched that debate, and they were both literally just talking around each other.
>Peterson - I think Marxism often comes from a place of angry resentment and a desire to destroy
Which is correct
>Zizek - capitalism has created actual problems, and I'm not here to answer for every bad thing Marxism has ever done
Which is also correct.

I don't understand how anyone thinks there was an actual winner. It was just two men refusing to talk to each other. It was frustrating.

Regardless peterson had a mental breakdown

Because he fried his brain with drugs.
That's an "own" is it? You cyberbullied an old man into drug dependency, and made him go insane?

Maybe he should have cleaned the room of his mind before trying to take on the world with it

I don't think he has much of a literary legacy. What are some original Peterson ideas? Why would people in 50 years engage with his work instead of going directly to Jung/Dostoevsky/Nietzsche/Solzhenitsyn?

Good evening Dr Jorb b beterson
How did you sleep last night?
Any dreams of grandmother?
>>
>>23321531
im a bit like Jordan Peterson myself, i don't write books, but i hate trannies
>>
>>23323461
His books are lame. His legacy is somewhat obvious though because of how he forced so many people to pivot in their thinking through dialogue. So it's more about being a really good internet professor/psychologist/parent figure than a haunting writer.
>>
>>23323004
that's really funny though
