I find that the hate that Peterson gets very often is mainly from very frail leftists who don't like to be held accountable to their own actions.

Some complain because they don't like his views on Marxist ideology, some because they want supremacy of LGBT acceptance, some because they don't want to admit their own defeat in life, some merely find him annoying because he looks annoying therefore he is wrong.

Often these same people resort to name-calling and as a bunch of ad-hominems, yet when ask to expand, they simply say "no". Although a worse alternative is when they say "google it", because that is the mark of somebody who neither knows himself as to why they believe their own point.

But as time goes on, it gets worse. Now it's mansplaining, then it's misogyny.

What is it that make Jordan an intellectual or a fraud?

>If Peterson will be remembered at all, it will be as a man who try to control forces he did not understand. A well meaning small c conservative who thought he could guide and reform the elemental cancer of white nationalism and misogyny, and whose death (which looks every more likely) will be used to deify him as an uncrowned philosopher king for a stateless nation of downwardly mobile, heavily armed young men. His biggest impact on academia will not be his work but the widespread introduction of clauses in tenure agreements that allow educators to be fired not for their own actions but for the company they keep.
