honestly what's with the hate for this man? I've luked here for years and only ever seen hate thrown in his general direction. I just finished maps of meaning and it's a decent introduction to more complex Jungian concepts you can read more up on in Aion and Man and his Symbols. Honestly, what's wrong with introducing Jungian psychology to a broader public hungry for meaning in a world that offers them nothing but ahistorical notions of social justice and trivial bullshit like pronouns?

Peterson is a super interesting psychologist. People don't want to actually spend time on exploration of truly interesting ideas and therefore only pay attention to his discussions about everyday (political) problems, wherein he indeed is guilty of grifterism, , take his 12 "rules" for life very literally, and don't bother with the lectures or MoM. For instance, many people literally think that there is a direct causal relationship between having a clean room and the capacity to rightfully influence anything outside of yourself. That is obviously not the actual meaning

>> No.20899666

desu I think Peterson is pretty good when he's talking about psychology, given it's his field of expertise and he clearly knows the literature backwards. but he was thrown into this position where he's used (some times more willingly than others) to push some dumb conservative agenda in northamerican politics, and that's where a lot of the nonsense and hate comes from

Peterson is an abject disgrace to the Jung, the figure he supposedly takes inspiration from. I’m not sure how people even loosely associate the two, other than simply from not having familiarized themselves with Jung’s approach to philosophy.

He clearly takes a conservative view on many issues, which upsets liberal communities, such as reddit, and 4chan to some extent.

He also became popular among conservative young men, which lead to some communities put him in a pedestal and treat him as an object of worship. This created in turn communities devoted to hate him and mock him, echo-chambers on their own.

Since he quit teaching in university, it seems his position has become more extreme, without the constrains of academia to put some limits to his original ideas. This is not unheard of, it's what has happened to many scientists, like Penrose, Dawkins, DeGray Tyson, and Bill Nye ("scientist") after they get famous, and have people that worship their thought only because it's theirs.

He’s clearly a intelligent person and knows his field at a very broad and deep level. His philosophy is weak and some of his medicine is weaker.

Sometimes you get these smart guys to step out of their element but keep talking since they sound very intligent no matter what they say but when he starts talking about non-psych stuff it gets very meh.

Overall he gets a pass because I like his goal but I don’t see him as anything new really. He just wrote a self help book for zoomers and Millenials that didn’t have real parenting for the real world. He’s not a noteworthy intellectual outside of his feild where he seems to be excellent Imo.

If you google Jungian psychology books, you'll find plenty of material including Jung's essays, Robert A. Johnson, Marie Louise von Franz.
I haven't heard much explanation of Jungian concepts from Jordan though. I don't even know if he's Jungian.
>world that offers them nothing but ahistorical notions of social justice and trivial bullshit like pronouns
Except when it doesn't, and you can just visit a public library, book store, internet and focus on things that have nothing to do with social justice or pronouns. It's about where you put your focus. If you put yourself in a jail of your creation, and then project that creation onto the outside world, well there's the problem.

>>20899646

Problem with rules is that people that write them can only write them for themselves. There's no reason to think they apply to anyone else. If Peterson had issues with lying, it may make sense for him to make a rule about telling the truth, and intellectualise all around it. What if you have no problem with telling the truth?

Shapiro's network really is the anti-thesis to Jordan's character especially since he identifies as a liberal (of course you won't hear him say that anymore because of the audience he cultivated).

The problem, of course, is that giving the true, correct, nuanced answer would be used as a weapon against you anyway. This is not to say that Peterson had thought the issue through properly and completely, because he didn't.

The right answer is that rights and freedoms are nearly always in tension with each other, and there is a threshold where collective action or legal intervention is justifiable as the appropriate solution. So, in this instance, we have freedom of association or non-association and freedom from compulsory service versus right to participate in the market and the right to be served absent customer misconduct.

Basically, the ideal equilibrium (which is really not possible to codify in a strictly interpretable or easily-enforceable way in the letter of the law) is that the provider of a service should not be forced to serve someone UNLESS no reasonable alternatives are available AND the potential customer has not engaged in conduct that a reasonable person would consider disqualifying. (It might be better yet to define the minimum size of a firm to which this applies—if I am a one-man business doing...whatever, it is probably on-balance more of an infringement to legally force me to serve any individual than to allow me to deny them service for any or no reason). To use the cake-baking example for an appropriately-behaved black couple (or white couple, or whatever), it should not be actionable if a bakery, or a few bakeries, refuse them service so long as there are comparable, accessible bakeries that can and will accommodate them. There is however a threshold where, if this kind of exclusion is widespread, you have a systemic problem that is most sensibly addressed with legislation.

Ultimately, Peterson should have rejected the framing of the prompt. What is presented is a choice between infringements upon rights (or if you prefer, two wrongs); which one is less-injurious to individuals, markets, and the fabric of society cannot be judged a priori.

What is all this 'meaning' Peterson supposedly delivers? Because one always hears thats what he offers, but no one can quite pin it down apart from generic calls to self-discipline and responsibility like any guru of the month.

So, his textbook Maps of Meaning is not original at all with regards to its content but it is highly creative and valuable respecting its form. He collated a truly titanic amount of very difficult information by pulling it out of some insanely abstruse theory and wrestled it all together into something approximating an instruction manual for analytic comparative meta-mythology; in other words, it's a handbook that teaches you how to speak and read the language of dreams.

Very impressive work for the age at which he accomplished it.

Nobody criticizes him for this but the one thing that is seriously dangerous about his theory is that his slave moralist interpretation of power that results in him doing a verbal slight-of-hand with the idea of competence.
Basically, competence is valued in terms of proficiency, which is power. If something is able to facilitate a goal, that is "power", but Peterson chooses to use the term "function" in its place because his idea of power is slave moralistic (meaning instead of understanding power as function he understands it as a goal, meaning in his lexicon power is seen as an end and not a means). So in short Peterson basically replaces the idea of "will to power" with this idea of "will to function".

Here's the problem with that:
If I say that
The value of competence = love (which is what Peterson says, love being the goal in question)
I don't actually change the definition of competence, but I do change the definition of love. Because when we say that the end goal of competence is love, we end up referring to all expressions of competence as expressions of love, and then power becomes love (its own end) in the way that Peterson tries to prevent.

>> No.20904548

>>20904529
so to demonstrate that
Master morality:
The value of competence = power
The value of power = love

Slave morality
The value of competence = love
The value of power = power

By calling the value of competence "love" you de facto position power as its own justification, which creates a kind of vacuum similar to an extension chord plugged into itself. Competence provides power, power provides love.

Okay, is the competence therefore always dependent on current societal values?
Being a competent blacksmith is different from being a competent actor. What Pete Jordanson doesn't make clear is how dependent it is on the context which you happen to find yourself in.

80% of people under 40 are way more "on twitter" than you think they are as a person who mainly uses 4chan. You have a whole self-deprecating worldview about how you're terminally online and secretly a 4chan incel haha lmao, but normies really got fucking devastated by twitter. Every ecosystem of slightly offbeat thought that used to give normies a bit of texture and nuance was absorbed into twitter, and they were all homogenized. They get all of their thoughts and conversation topics from summaries. They have fundamentally similar consciousness, structurally speaking, to an old boomer uncle who does literally nothing but watch that one news channel all day, so that you can predict everything he thinks and says before he even arrives to Thanksgiving dinner.

Peterson was briefly a cause du jour or "thing" for twitter leftists and twitter adjacent streamers and vloggers to pretend to be opinionated about. When their audience comes to 4chan, they repeat what they've been hearing as if everyone has had the same firmware update about it, and they genuinely can't understand when the responses they receive don't fit into the pre-established grooves they've learned.

For example nobody really talked about Peterson on /lit/ even at the peak of his 2016 culture war relevance, so when anti-Peterson people posted incredibly angrily about him they often got confused when the response was "why do you care so much about Jordan Peterson" instead of "FUCK YOU WOKE SJW, HE IS MY KEKISTANI GENERALISSIMO." So Peterson threads would always have this lopsided, slightly surreal rhythm to them, with breadtube tourist shadowboxing fictional Petersonfags, repeating facebook uncle soundbites like "remember when Peterson said THIS" or "remember Peterson's CARPET" as if anyone cares.

Okay i'll tell you we we don't like him. When you spoke, at his age, as a master of influence, as an "intellectual", you are supposed to have read everything. And by everything, obviously i don't mean everything, but at the very least all classics. That include having read thoroughly Marx, not only Das Kapital volume 1 (for all i know he only read communist manifest), but most of his work. Then only then, can you talk in front of a public about him. Same for Hegel.

Peterson is the Last Messiah of Liberalism. Liberalism is dying so it had to conjure up a prophet that makes a religion out of it in a last ditch attempt to save it.

Most of the hate I've seen is pathetic and comes from pathetic people, so it can be safely ignored.
He likes to go into interviews to state his opinion about literally everything, which sometimes makes him look silly. I don't think that outweighs most of what he says, which is legit. But faggots love to cherry pick quotes out of context and use the most uncheritable interpretation possible. Because he's, you know, a "right winger" so it's a religious war for them. (He's actually a pretty basic lib.)


At the end of the day, I think he deserves credit for calling out some of the woke insanity, because most academics don't dare to do it.
His psychological insights are also mostly legit, as much as psychology is legit anyway.
12 Rules for Life was mediocre at best, so I have no desire to read his books.
Some of his speeches/lectures/interviews are pretty cool. He's an articulate and passionate speaker. Sometimes I wish he was better read in philosophy, which would make him even more interesting, but oh well.

That's exactly the issue at hand.

No, that's because those few people are guilty of great crimes and have terrible fear of the consequences catching up with them.

The answer is to not do bad things to anybody in the first place to not 'make' those enemies, as a bodyguard with a gun isn't going to stop an assassination in all reality and employing PR to whitewash your crimes just makes people think you're part of an even larger conspiracy, and go after you all the more.

No it's an obviously contrived vaudeville; it's a hilarious sounding non-issue related to nothing serious, which is just a distraction from all the other real issues. If a possible conclusion of the great cake saga even remotely involved a winding back of the abuse of 'hate' legislation we'd never have heard of it in the first place.

> Peterson's whole rise to public spotlight
Like Trumps was 1000% contrived and promulgated by the 'leftist' press. They'd have to be completely stupid to have done this thing by accident once, and then done it again and again.

to this specific issue though,
>civic duties

They reframe a municipal matter fo vendors as if it were a moralistic or philosophical debate; it's the same error as when they pretend that black people or women are actively repressed in the modern day,when the laws were remedied to address those legitimate grievances decades ago. Under the laws today (likely wherever we both are speaking english) it's already unlawful to discriminate against a person under those kinds of categories, and it has been probably since the middle 90's.

We can count the number of times since then that this issue has even come up, as clearly everybody was fine with it and didn't even notice it all this time - that's how 'huge' the matter was since it was introduced lol

>> No.20913847

>I think in the psychology field Peterson cant really be hated
Why not? He is focused on Big Five. The simplest criticism of such models is that the results of such tests are based on declarations about ones own behaviour. If ones imagine of their behaviour is distorted enough, it also distorts the results of the test. By an extension, predictable ability of the tests is limited. Though, it's pretty common sense to say that organised and conscientious people tend to do better at work and disagreeable people tend to make for better negotiators.
Aside from his focus on Big Five it's pretty difficult to point out what his thoughts on human psyche are. He's all over the place, mostly with some existential and psychoanalytic elements thrown here and there.

>he also gives pretty fair and good advice to young men to follow
No, this is an error. Advice can only be personalised. You cannot give advice to young people because it'd either be so vague that it's hard to follow or it'd be so specific that it's inapplicable to part of the group. Young people as a group aren't homogenous, so there's that also.

>They reframe a municipal matter fo vendors as if it were a moralistic or philosophical debate
That the media framing was stupid does not mean the issue itself is unworthy of critical attention. It is BECAUSE most people are so susceptible to propaganda that things like that actually should be treated as serious topics for discussion. Peterson was dead right about the pronouns thing, and he addressed that particular topic appropriately; on the other hand, you see the cake thing as immaterial nonsense because you're framing it from a "public vendor" perspective while dismissing the "privately owned business" perspective. These are not trivial to reconcile in a civic philosophy, and the fact that we're even having this discussion pretty thoroughly contradicts your dismissive attitude. Especially when your answer to the question (of whether private businesses can refuse custom orders based on personal beliefs) is "probably not": can't even give a hard "no" without a qualifying "probably".

He was a little bitch on the cake thing, though, since he doesn't have the chad autism to stick to hard principles of civic rights in the face of being seen as raysis.

Master morality is when you are motivated towards a goal rather than away from an obstacle. There literally is no clearer way to describe it.

His categorization of Masculine/Feminine = Order/Chaos is also wrong
Femininity is unity and masculinity is multiplicity
All phenomena depends on the relationship between unity and multiplicity
In order to have a span of time, like any unit, you need two points and a connection between them. All "points" can just be subdivided, which means that all singulars contain multiplicity.

>with children getting taken away by CPS because their parents won't affirm their trans identities.
Also this; providing yet another excuse to censor and go after people for disagreeing with [insert latest bullshit here]. But if the issue is as simple as this one, i.e. has been in law for over 30 yrs and is not unreasonable, then it's an obvious trap - to be encouraged to go and protest in order to have an excuse to use you as an example of a dissident, to prove that 'cliche dissidents' (widespread neo nazism, etc.) exist.

>you see the cake thing as immaterial nonsense because you're framing it from a "public vendor" perspective while dismissing the "privately owned business" perspective.
Well, then you're partly being led into this trap through ideological framing of the thing, instead of the fare more clear-cut municipal and legal bedrock where the thing is actually dealt with.

>Especially when your answer to the question (of whether private businesses can refuse custom orders based on personal beliefs) is "probably not": can't even give a hard "no" without a qualifying "probably".
I said 'probably' because I'm not up on the tiny details of American States and Canadian laws in this area; and I really said 'probably' because I don't know whether it was put into code in the middle 90's or whether it had existed on the books since the end of segregation or the decriminalizing of homosexuality - whenever that was in America.

My point, regardless, was that the issue itself hasn't existed for at least a quarter of a century; that the laws are already in favor of the position being advocated, in the same manner as discrimination over race or gender, that's why it's obviously a non-issue at the root of the complaint, and that, I would say, is why it's a nice and safe thing to signal about (as they're championing for a thing which is already established under the law) and probably this argument can be raised at any point in order to make the anti-cake lobby look like complete morons who don't know the law.

by "great crimes" and "not do bad things" you mean saying something people disagree with. well, you just said something i disagreed with, therefore you deserve to be tortured to death, according to your own logic. but there's no point in killing retards like you, because you're already braindead, anyway.

Personally, I strongly dislike him because he hasn't bothered to read the philosophers he claims to despise.

On his website, Jordan Peterson blames Foucault and Marx for creating the systems of thought that inspired his vacuous buzzword "postmodern neo-Marxism". I've seen posters on /pol/ use the Frankfurt School as a boogeyman too when citing Peterson, though I don't know if he's ever actually mentioned them. Peterson has not read Foucault, Marx, Adorno, Benjamin, Horkheimer, or anyone else that he complains about as the ideological beginning of SJWs (he admitted that the only Marx he read was directly before the Zizek debate, and it was the Communist Manifesto, which is just a cry to arms not a detailed political treatise, so it's not very useful for learning what Marx really believed). He thinks Foucault's structuralism is equivalent to Marx's dialectical materialism, which is laughable if you've even done some basic research (like googling) as to what the terms mean. It seems like he gets all his information of the thinkers he derides secondhand from Steven Hicks.

Peterson is a hack speaking outside his discipline who uses the veneer of academic authority and "expertise" to comment on areas he has put minimal effort into studying. That's why Zizek was so visibly baffled a few times during that debate, he was taken aback by the fact that this guy was just name-dropping without having done any fucking research. I don't particularly car before Zizek either but I respect that the man has at least done his homework.

Peterson's just some pseudo-celebrity Sophist who gets away with spewing gibberish because the vast majority of people don't actually engage with his writing or speeches. They just like the idea of the man and they defend that.

Both of these are germane; Peterson is very knowledgeable about a narrow range of things he's been immersed in continuously, but he isn't the sort of wise or brilliant thinker that should be fighting any broad cultural battles, nor drawing attention to himself like he's some sort of defiant rebel. I mean he IS a rebel by canadian standards but that's merely a statement about how gay and pathetic canada is right now.

I watched 10 minutes. What was Peterson thinking? I mean he knows Dawkins was a horsemen of the new atheists and someone he personally criticized in his debates with sam harris. He said Dawkins' ideas were shallow and unsophistated and his meme theory is inferior to archetypes. They have nothing in common besides a tenuous shared disgust with PC language. Does he think he can play Tolkien to Dawkin's CS Lewis here and they can bond over cancel culture the way he does with other IDW people?
There's a fundamental difference between the way he and Dawkins thinks. For all his edgy rebellious flavor of atheism Dawkins is a legit scientist, meanwhile Peterson is a pseud who keeps venturing outside of his field of psychology to make these flimsy analogies based on whatever sparknotes summary he read on molecular biology/AI/computational neuroscience/evpsych. He's worse than Michio Kaku. At least as a theoretical physicist Kaku has enough grounding in high level mathematics to talk in concrete terms when he needs to. Peterson doesn't even have that. He'll take respectable concepts grounded in science and extrapolate them to infinity to justify Christian Universalism. In the video he takes a simple concept like female mate selection, and then somehow concludes there's a Chomsy-esque neurological structure in female brains that encodes the image of the ideal Man, aka Jesus. And this was all written in the bible as Man is created in the image of God. And the more you act like Jesus the more sexually fit you are. Really? That's his big idea? Trying to establish some biological reality to those "what will jesus do" bracelets? Is Elon Musk a prophet? Or maybe Genghis Khan must be really close to being a God Emperor. I mean he must know biologists are put off by any talk about directionality or end goal in evolution yet he still invited Dawkins to hear him prattle on about this.
Peterson's the kind of guy to tell you to "read more" and only to make 10 hours worth of lectures on pic related.

Is it me or has peterson's usage of postmodernism completely diverged from its original meaning and has become synonymous with dyed hair feminism? I mean isn't the concept of the west as a history of patriarchy itself a grand narrative? Doesn't Peterson himself literally use postmodernism to dismantle his opponent in that wage gap debate that made him famous? He says something about how complex multivariate analysis shows the wage gap isn't all that much. That sounds suspiciously similar to a postmodernism breakdown

Exactly, this is why he's such a hack. He has no real understanding of what postmodernism means, it's just a word he picked out of a hat so he could slap an academic-sounding term on a movement he doesn't like. It's transparently stupid, and if you asked him to define postmodernism, I doubt he could. Peterson knows fuck-all about Marxism too.

Truth be told, Peterson is more intelligent and more articulate than 99% of the people who use this board, let alone the site in general. They dunk on him and call his well-explained ideas basic and "mid" to feel intellectually-superior, when in reality Peterson would destroy any of you neckbeards in a debate.

Maps of Meaning was good, I'd recommend watching his Biblical series on YouTube while studying the Bible for a better understanding of its themes and narratives. They're very long, but the series is an excellent companion to the Summa Theologia. https://youtu.be/f-wWBGo6a2w

This is a large problem not only with Peterson but with the way people practice/preach Christianity in general
You're supposed to 1. love God and 2. love thy neighbour as thyself
every other Christian law is then valued relative to that
this means if you kill someone to defend your family (meaning you acted out of love, thus you obeyed the first two laws) you are perfectly fine
that which is done out of love takes place beyond good and evil is literally written in the bible
if a person were to spare a home invader, allowing them to effortlessly murder the wife and kids when the home owner was perfectly capable of defense (say they were both unarmed and the home owner was way stronger)
the coward home owner would be breaking the first two laws by betraying their instinct towards love out of fear when they knew they would be forgiven anyway

A quarter is extremely generous (as is the idea of "in-depth"). It's always the same tired bullshit about (a short stint of) severe withdrawl from a prescribed medication being a character defining drug addiction and being filtered by what he says to the point of accusing him of wanting to exterminate the mentally retarded (literally the just of this 3hr sperg video posed by this retard >>20905276). Aside from that you have a bunch of pseuds thinking they're proving their intellect buy dunking on low-hanging self-help shit without taking into account it's for a general audience. Oh, and don't forget the best part: the reacts people have to Peterson underscore that racists and libtards are just as bad as one another and are literally in the same boat.

lol not even this, he fucking used the most obvious turnabout on Matt Dillahunty which made him (peterson i mean) look like a sleazeball (if we suppose it was purposeful, i disagree that it was), he was immediately called on it, and apologised, so he wasn't thinking when he was speaking.

>>20915898
>In a written argument where coherence and not rhetorical facility is key he wouldnt have a chance, as he wouldnt against any 'postmodern neomarxist'
This, probably. If you notice though, a lot of people he's talking to (and people talking about him here) are more often saying that they 'sympathize' with what he experienced for talking about his original position and agreed with his original position; against coercive speech, censorship, press manipulation, 'fake-leftist' hate mobs, etc. This is not related to any of his philosophical or ideological arguments.

I'd say him vs. one of those fake-leftists would be an equal flounder on both parties, since they'd be both talking nonsense hysterics and inferences ("OH SO WHAT YOU'RE SAYING IS THIS"), whereas in a clear straight discussion about any of the topics he's raised his reasoning is pretty paper-thin. Appeals to emotional feel-good 'ethos' (i.e. traditionalism) (see: pathos and ethos vs. logos) being the easiest to spot.

I think we all agree he was abused in his first press interview (and subsequent yellow journalism), but because we acknowledge this doesn't mean we need to agree with anything he actually said or not, moreso we might be inclined in error - based entirely upon his victim status - to go from sympathizing wit him to sympathizing with everything else he's said or is said to have said.

That's a consequence of the poor practice of the Press (or 'proxy intelligentsia' lol rofl to call them that); where the opposite is achieved by their relentless 24/7 smear campaigns, e.g. Donald Trump got elected because of it.
