at the forefront

based psychologist is based.

Smart dude. He's like an autist that got rid of all his shit personality / traits.

Sup Forums has a massive fanboy crush on any male who seems to say something contrary to the standard estrogen-soaked MSM doctrine

I doubt even half understand exactly what he is saying about anything, but he sounds hella smart and pisses of feminists, so he's a god in the Sup Forums pantheon

He's ok, just don't become a sperg a treat him like a all-knowing oracle.

the first I saw of him was the debate with the feminist (((journalist))). The bitch kept trying and trying to trip him up and was eviscerated

youtube.com/watch?v=aMcjxSThD54

has some smart things to say is completely delusional in other things.

delusional?

About what? His definition of truth? His understanding of communism?

i dont watch nearly enough of him to give you specific examples because i was so turned off by the some of the retarded he said. i have no idea what he said about either of those things.

what was retarded? I know a lot of people went off because of the trans pronoun thing. Which, out of context is understandable but if ppl actually knew what he was talking about they'd see it differently.

Makes liberals & femanists cry, which is a good thing.

Jordan Peterson?

She's awesome.

>completely delusional
...
>I don't watch nearly enough
>I was so turned off
>I have no idea

Yeah, those are the sentences that make your opinions sound really valid.

What retarded thing?

Pretty well read and very insightful, especially in psychology.

But I always take what he says with a grain of salt, someone with that much influence and popularity can push any agenda he wanted.

i apologize for not having a perfect memory

This. The moron's opinion can safely be discarded.

A pussy faggot in the face of kikes/the alt right, alright aside from that

lol. sometimes if someone says something so completely fucked you can disregard anything else they say. for example for deepak chopra thinks atoms can be sentient.

Irrational and immature, stooping to begging bitcoin from nazis.

The alt-right's new favorite pseudointellectual

There have been few issues with what he has said or how he has interpreted certain things. I think on Rogan he was talking about "the meek shall inherit the earth" and how it actually means something totally different,which is bullshit and not backed up by any evidence.

He has interesting stuff, but just keep in mind that even he can be wrong.

I like him. It is only a matter of time though before he slips up and the MSM catches it and burns him to the ground with it

>even he
wtf he's not some amazing one in a generation intellect he's a regular old shitty professor

This. Also, while being a smart guy, he cares too much fighting against the gender neutral movement. It's a valid fight to be sure, but there's bigger things out there as well.

He is just saying normal stuff, like really not smart just common sense stuff but Americans are so stupid they think that he is offensive or a genius

This is bait right? In the bible where that term comes from, meek means something different than what people think. Originally the word meek comes from the Greek word Praus which mean gentle strength. Meekness in the way it is used in the bible just means knowing you have power and knowing when to use it. Not being arrogant and cocky but also not standing down like a bitch when the time comes.

Can you save me the trouble of watching the video and sum up his position on the meek inheriting the earth?

People hold him up too much imo. He's smart and knows how to communicate points effectively but it's nothing new. I do think what he teaches is pretty important tho either way.

He was basically saying the phrase means to not be a tyrant, but at the same time don't be a pussy, find a middle ground. Carry a weapon and know when to use it is what I got from it.

No need to apologize for not having a perfect memory. No one does. But if you claim someone is completely delusional, without any examples to point to, no one is going to care about what you're saying.

Isn't he anti-porn, and doesn't he think that it's hypocritical to be anti-Christian while also not being a murderer (because Christianity invented not being a murderer).

everyone has some delusional views. also no one cares what anyone says on an anonymous image board so its k

This

If you want to see him flop around and not contribute any value to a conversation with two other people with Ph.D.s in philosophy about the question of the meaning of life, set aside a couple hours and watch this recent video.

You'll be deluded from your false belief that Jordan Peterson is a top notch philosopher.

youtu.be/pDDQOCXBrAw

I care

>deluded
Didnt u mean dispelled nigger? Stfu and sit down

Of course people care or they wouldn't post. So what you're saying is, everyone has delusions, which makes him completely delusional?

He made me fully appreciate post-modernism and communism again, and reminded me how much I despise christcucks.

seems like a rational, logical thinking dude. doesnt support leftist nonsense. would have beer/10

>So what you're saying is, everyone has delusions, which makes him completely delusional?
no

Then try again, if you have a point to make.

i dont and nothing anyone says in this thread will have any impact on anyone

eh, not really. Many of lazier thinking left just shoved him into that group as a way dealing with him destroying their safe space lol. Instead of ANY self reflection whatsoever they'd rather just point and screech "NN-NAZZZIII".

It might, but why post if you feel that way

is he christian? That's fine but if he's using it in lectures and discussion I might have to rethink this

Judging him solely from his YouTube videos, I'd say he's a snake oil salesman.

I don't know anything about deepak. Is he besties with Peterson?

I don't.

Too late.

This.

100% snake oil.

He even talks about Greek fables as giving us mystical ancient truths about Psychology.

Like religion, he combines basic advice such as, wipe your ass, brush your teeth, etc., with more exotic opinions which are then granted far more credence than they deserve because he did after all give us the good advice of wiping our ass.

This video is embarrassing. Peterson needs to go home.

they can't all be good. He usually carries himself well. He certainly buttblasted the ctrl-left though lmao

Most on the left haven't even heard of this nobody

That's why I said 'ctrl-left' because I think they're the minority. The authoritarian pieces of shit that scream and never let him give lectures.

Smartest man alive.

Cool, nice job outing yourself as an uneducated SJW cuck with the classic, "I don't actually know anything about him, but I hate everything about him".

Liar piece of dogshit.

Athiesm is unstoppable!

Dude does tons of lectures. You've bought into his professional victim card bullshit.

Sorry, but "I haven't done enough research to understand what he was taking about" doesn't translate to "what he said was bullshit".

Exactly.

shit psychologist. he teaches bible school disguised as psychology

faglord

reassuring that Sup Forums isn't as brainwashed as Sup Forums on this

Dude rakes in 50k a month on his patreon just for lending an intellectual gloss to the Trump chumps philosophical positions.

He's deaf to rebuttals and doesn't seem to believe half the shit he says. Basically he's Milo 2.0 but better at making money.

>I watched some stuff and didn't bother to understand it, in fact, I can't quite remember what it was. All I know is, I didn't really like it and stopped watching, therefor, it was retarded.

You are an absolute moron

After watching hours upon hours of his lectures, interviews, and following on FB.. I bought this book. So far he's just laying out the facts, and supporting his arguments with a fuckton of sources.
(Really.. 18 pages of end notes for everything he cited.)
Based on the first chapter alone, It's worth buying.

retard alart

He doesn't know what post-modernism is, yet he blames it for everything.

He should shut it about philosophy and anything philosophy related and stick to psychology.

>18 pages of end notes
You do know that's not a good sign right

He blames people for there own actions - Thats what we should be doing. Not breeding moralless morons like your self to help you understand there is such thing as causality and responsibility. Not just screaming Nazi or your prefered pronoun with no real argument other than your opinion then saying stick to what you know xD ironic you know very little about much from your counter point to Jordan. GG you will do well in life with this beta faggotry. ;)

He has very nice life advice and wisdom, pick what you think will help

pretty cool guy and he doesn't afraid of anyone

> citing source material & supportive documents
How is that a bad thing? It's better than just taking a persons word as truth.

oh dear. You're at the sort of teenage critical thinking level. Yes citing sources is a good thing, but you will notice that many conspiracy theories and "alternative histories" cite hundreds upon hundreds of sources.

Why? Because for charlatans sources are used as a aesthetic tool rather than academic rigour. They make the gullible say "wow lots of sources it must be true!" without further inquiry. The more sources you have, the less likely people are ever going to bother checking those sources too.

You will notice in mainstream scientific studies and books, there are sources, but generally not 18 pages of them. That is a sure sign of a fraud.

Nice guy. Going through his biblical lecture series really helped change my life for the better. Went from a depressed shut in, to now at least trying to be a functioning member of society. Still don't believe in an omnipotent, omnipresent God, but I totally understand religiousness and the important of pursuing an ideal self.

His political views are align nice enough with mine as well. Seems pretty moderate.

The way the internet works though is that things only fit into extremes. So people will either hate him and think he's a satanic jewish, nazi liar. Or that he's a fucking god. Can't just say "he's a pretty cool guy, says some helpful things and I enjoy some of his political commentary"

>"oh dear"

Not that user, but you are a douchebag pseudo-sophisto. Quit coming to Sup Forums to try and make yourself feel smarter. Get a therapist for that inferiority complex, you are too weak to handle it on your own.

Armchair psychologist is not a good look for you user. If you cannot engage then best keep quiet.

Hey look, a bag of dicks, you, eat them.

Look guys!

I found the commie!

Overall intelligent guy. He's quite straight forward on free speech and infringements upon it, his analysis of the current political climate is quite accurate and he is very valuable in this regard.
But on truth or religion he spergs out completely.

"Do you believe in Jesus"
"That depends on how you define Jesus. Or Belief"
I mean for fucks sake. Own up to your delusions.

> claiming less research as more knowledgeable and trustworthy.
That's some next level stupid user.

Sam Harris podcast 62 what is truth. Man can't build a base in truth or accept a base other than "darwinian science". That was the moment I totally discounted every opinion of his other than psychology and Jung. He needs to do a talk on the red book though, see that I wanna hear his opinion on.

Absolutely ridiciulous, said trump must be very intelligent because he had a TV show

The important thing to note is that more sources does not mean more research. Often when an author chooses to flood a claim with sources, it is to cover up the LACK of research. The sources may be difficult to find, poor quality, or not actually supporting the statement. Of course, if someone bothers to check source 1 of 50 and finds it to be wanting, then the devout can retort "but we still have 49 you haven't debunked!"

I'm not saying Jordan Peterson is wrong because he cites lots of sources, but it is not a good sign of quality work. 18 pages of endnotes is more typical of conspiracy writing and fad diet promoters than it is of actual science.

This. Low knowledge tards don't know how to be meek.

he just does not remember, it is possible to remember disliking something without remembering the details

Considering how Peterson conducts himself, I would HIGHLY doubt that he would fluff his book with subpar sources.
> pic related

one of the good guys

philosophy and psychology are related, but he is bad at both

Yeah this photo kind of confirms my suspicions. The second source on that list is quite infamous. It is the study from the following:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rind_et_al._controversy

Now I don't know what Peterson was citing it for, but if he has simply used that source to back up his claim of something, that is dodgy as fuck.

Also I think the standard conspiracy theorist style source-flooding would be completely in line with how Peterson conducts himself?

Ur mom gay

He is a warrior agains left authoritarianism and general bullshit, which is most important. He also places immense value to single sentences, holy texts and fairytales. Its silly, but not important in the big picture.

It doesn't confirm anything because you don't have the context that he was citing it for. You're clearly biased.

The very post you're responding to acknowledged this, retard.

>He also places immense value to single sentences, holy texts and fairytales
This. JP's newest podcast is basically glorified Bible studies. As an atheist, shit gets pretty boring in the long run.

There it is.. Name calling.
Way to tale the higher path.
Besides.. You already said in that debunking one citation isn't worth shit in the argument. Who's retarded now?

That reply wasn't me. And I actually said that
>if someone bothers to check source 1 of 50 and finds it to be wanting, then the devout can retort "but we still have 49 you haven't debunked!"
which indeed you are now proving correct.

I'm not going to bother checking every single one of 18 pages of endnotes.

Nobody is.

So you're going to need a better criterion than a flood of endnotes to trust someone.

I happen to be in a library at the moment and I have just looked at some conspiracy books for examples. The book "The Jesus Mysteries" by Freke and Gandy is almost a quarter endnotes. It's a very impressive flood of endnotes.

And it is utter garbage.

This is what charlatans do.
