Anyone else just not all that interested in post-modern lit? McCarthy and Calvino seem interesting and so do Bolano and Saramago to a lesser extent but most of it just seems like meaningless drivel or self-masturbatory bullshit that'll be forgotten a couple centuries from now.

He appears to be that on the surface. This is the impression you might get if you watch 5 minute out of context clips, uploaded by brainlet youtube channels which pretentious names like "intellectual awakening" or "philosophy insights", but that's doing him a disservice. He is less of a right wing reactionary like Evola and more of a radical centrist with traditionalist and classical liberal flavoring. Maps of Meaning is not a right wing agenda, unless you consider Jungian psychology to be right wing. Peterson believes that people who want to radically change the world like SJWs or neo-nazis, should instead take a good look at themselves and fix their lives first before they even attempt to tinker with society, because if they can't even organize their own lives properly, how can they even think they are qualified to tell anyone how society is run?

He is lumped in with the new right because they were the only ones willing to give him a platform after he was being accused of being an alt right neo nazi just because he didn't want people to legislate what pronouns they should use when speaking to people. If you want to call Peterson right wing, he is a moderate conservative at best.

Seriously, Peterson is much better than his fanbase or public image might suggest. You should watch his Maps of Meaning lectures an just ignore all the other noise surrounding him if you want a clear picture of who is guy is. Or just read his book. Maps of Meaning that is, not this shitty self help book which is targeted at brainlet normies.

So can I skip leviticus and deuteronomy if I'm not reading the bible for religious purposes?

I really hate this cultural of dismissing ideas you have not even partially entertained.
