Can Jordan Peterson be accurately described as being "politically correct"?
Can Jordan Peterson be accurately described as being "politically correct"?
checked. also stupid question. the answer is a loud and resounding "NO." he rails against marxism, which is the ideological root of political correctness. He is just polite.
>he rails against marxism
Yeah, almost as much as he rails against Nazism.
He is politically correct. There are issues he refuses to touch because.. well.... you know.
Grow up
What does that even mean?
associating with Nazism is retard, it's political suicide no matter how you frame it. guilt by association. besides, we already live in fascist world, just the wrong kind of fascism
Trump got condemned for saying both sides were wrong at Charlottesville. That is politically incorrect
DA JOOS
Good man, I don't understand why he has haters here
He's 1980's politically correct
Yes, years ago Peterson would be considered a leftist. He is a bit of a cuck still living in Toronto hoping Canada can be saved. But at least he is helping red pill people.... if we could even call it that.
He is like the entry level pill.
It means this site is 18+ so leave
You leave, leaf.
sort your own shit out before shitting on others, bucko
>entry level pill
I'm really interested in hearing other people talking about politics or history. Is there any worthwhile author I could watch on YT?
By University of Toronto standards he is literally Adolf Hitler
DA DEMOCRATS AR DA REEL RAYCISS
Nah im good
He's anti-leftist but he's basically a normal guy. I don't agree with a lot of what he says about modern men, he blames them far too much for being products of a changing world.
I give him credit though, his online defenders swear by him yet Peterson himself sees criticism of him online and will change his views if he thinks the points are strong enough.
Yes incredibly so. He will use verbose and horrendously long explanations for various things and ignore the glaringly obvious answers.
"Why is communism not as reviled as nazism by normies?"
Gee whizz, sure has nothing to do with actual commie propaganda / cultural marxism for the last 50 years. Probably some psychological conundrum.
"That very much depends on your definition of politically correct"
Peterson isn't a political figure. That was never the point of any of his lectures.
Maybe Canadians associate listening comprehension with maturity
This is true. Maps of Meaning is beautiful and can, just like Jung or Joseph Campbell, help a man sort himself out. His political commentary is just softness impersonified.
Yes. He is a liberal, so he is politically correct.
That guy takes shit way too seriously lol
All forms of socialism are bad mmmkay...
ur black
yep. no matter how you spin it, whether hitler did nothing wrong, none of it matters in modern times.
if anything, a new mythological figure must be risen to even higher standards than hitler himself. Maybe then, the modern connotation of nazi will have been driven, and a new breed of virtuous people will take its place.
...
Politically correct was a term invented by doctrinaire Marxists to describe their beliefs.
Jung and Campbell are both great and they're really echoed in Peterson.
Just Peterson isn't really a substitute for actual intensive philosophy, but his biggest plus is that he's a really great trade-off value for depth vs accessibility. Normies will never actually read Lucretius, or Augustine, or Nietzsche so Peterson is a good entry into the introspective.
Indeed, and what is your point friend?
>Nietzsche
Despite being a personal favorite of mine, Nietzsche is pretty fucking normie, as is just about any philosopher who's taught regularly in an intro to philosophy/political theory survey course.
Well, that's true. Hitler's Nazi Germany will never come back. Things change so much in this world that any figure similar to Hitler would have no choice but to do things differently. The next Nazi Germany type state would be it's own state in it's own time.
Hitler's Nazi Germany is forever stuck in time, an infamous portrait of a time gone by.
That's a Danish flag retard.
