Don't forget that any real knowledge is fractured between the literati, no one human being can fathom the world enough to actually say anything worth saying alone.

Jordan Peterson is a mediocre teacher handing out lectures that the right would go to uni for, that's all he is.

If anything, it's Jordan Peterson who is the zealot in this situation, and it's no surprise he attracts the far-right, undeliberately, but he sets the presets towards anti-dialectical demagoguery by telling people not to engage, but to reject and refuse, and sometimes even actively seek out and strangle political entities that do not exist. Postmodernism and Marxism has been taught in universities for decades without any problems, alongside other thinkers who have been rather controversial and nowhere near either of those. That's the function of a university, to engage with oppository beliefs and lessen personal prejudices and approach certain topics from multiple perspectives.

Jordan Peterson frequently says he draws his views on postmodernism from a book by Hicks who writes that postmodernism is a socialist ploy to destroy western civilization by promoting immigration and globalism, from the perspective of Ayn Rand, an infamous writer often attacked for her politicalization of her philosophy.
Are we really to believe this man on postmodernism rather than to read postmodernists writers?
