Leave Derrida to me

Can someone explain me who the fuck is this guy and why he is so popular among incels? What are his ideas? Beliefs? What the fuck is 12 rules for life?

Depression and anger runs in both sides of my family but for some reason me and my sister caught the worst of it. I petitioned to leave a fairly prestigious university to pursue a life of crime and violence. I had no regard for the feelings of others particularly the women in my life. Everything I did was dangerous, the fights I picked, the amount of drugs I did, the people I hung around, the sex I had, the connections I ended. I'd like to share with you some of my most shameful experiences.

I contracted a sexually transmitted disease (luckily curable), I almost killed someone, I caused my mother to develop a heart problem, I got kicked out of my home, I betrayed some of my closest friends for things like drugs or money, and I brought immense shame to my parents and my family.

One day I began to feel a deep anxiety after watching a random video of UofT psychologist giving a lecture. I had never really stopped and considered why I acted out the way I did, why I put myself in the situations I put myself in, why I tried to prove my worth/masculinity/ability in the ways that I did. I hated listening to Dr. Peterson he seemed like he was just saying what old men who think their wise or sophisticated ramble about. I hated him.Day after day I would go back to his videos leaving hateful comments because I was hearing what he was saying but I wasn't listening.

The girl I was with at the time asked me why I spend so much time watching university lectures if I hate the guy. She was right wasn't she? Why didn't I just ignore him? Why couldn't I just ignore him? I snapped at her. I didn't hate him. I hated myself and for once in my life someone was telling me why. I genuinely believed I loved myself (I was such a narcissist after all) so the only way I could integrate the information entering my brain was to convince myself that I hate the source of this anger. It wasn't the man on the screen that was the source of the anger, it was the fact that I was so naive to believe that I had anything to be proud about and that I refused to listen to everyone in my life because I was a nihilistic, coddled, violent, needy piece of shit.

It's been almost a year and I've successfully completed a year and half of courses at university (really good marks too), me and my family have a great relationship, I've been in a faithful relationship with beautiful hard-working girlfriend and for the first time in a long time I really love myself and my life. I can tear up on demand just by thinking about my hero. I never bothered to write him a letter because I knew he wouldn't have time to read it but I spoke to a colleague of his (one of my profs) and she told me I should do it anyways so here I am.

Sincerely,

A Grateful Lobster

Why does he say "Dosteeyevsky"? Is that actually how it's pronounced? It sounds retarded and nothing like how it's spelled.

you owe a thanks to him also

Why does he like Jews so much

Ok, this man is a pseud and usually oversimplifies stuff against his bias. However, he was the first person I listened to talking about Postmodernism and I tried searching for other meanings but everything I found was vague.
Could you explain it to me?

Clean your room or life will bloody well clean you bucko. And that's not something you should take lightly at all.

I like Jordan Peterson.
