Most people need to latch on to a public figure. Ironically, Peterson says in this JRE interview that people arrange themselves into tribes, small collective communities, and need representative hero figures who navigate collective society for them. It's like everybody has their own tiny irrelevant life, and look up to a couple of public figures, and those figures become their idols, their Gods to worship.

For most board members, living in a world where God is dead and they can't create their own values, they have latched on to Peterson as somebody who navigates reality for them and gives them their value structure. Over 99% of people do it, need a God like Peterson to worship, and less than 1% are figures like Peterson who have worshipers and disciples.

In the very early days of /lit/, that figure was Christopher Hitchens. A few figures later, and /lit/ was worshiping DFW and Max Stirner. Individually, everybody has a handful of idols to worship, their own personal Gods; as a board, Peterson has become the current board God to worship.

You've just gotta ignore it, I guess. Wait for the next idol to come along. There are plenty of worse people /lit/ could have chosen. Some people have Kim Kardashian as one of their personal Gods, so it really could be a lot worse.

Look on youtube for a video of him talking about alcoholism. It's a 10-15 min segment taken from a longer video. It's him at the front of a fairly small room. He's talking about how he tried running an experiment to test for alcoholism being hereditary or not, where certain people have an increase in heart rate when alcohol enters their system and some don't, but he had to give up when he wasn't allowed to let drunk people leave and had to give them three glasses of beer and wait 15 hours until their blood alcohol level had subsided. He talks about his own predisposition to alcohol addiction.

There's another vid where he is at home talking about his wife. He confesses becoming dependent on alcohol in his early 20's and having to quit drinking.

Good post but I refuse to believe that isn't just a subset of people below the age of, say, 23. I really have a hard time believing that adults take the same stance. The only people I know cottoning onto meme trends, and subsequently using it as part of their identity, are college kids and teenagers. I'm not saying it's a bad thing - people have always been into Marx, Coca Cola and music.

This comes up a lot in my course and I often sit there thinking how easy it must be for an academic to focus solely on young people. Studying the habits of adults always sounds like a harder path to take because they know the rewards are diminished (mainly because they're harder to define as a homogenised group).

Anyway, I'm too sceptical of YouTube celebs to take them seriously. It sounds like Peterson might have been a decent academic once upon a time but when you're hanging out with Rogan you're just part of a fad. Fuck him and his miserable sounding voice.

Just admit it, the dude puts out decent content in a very digestible format while also encouraging viewers to read some well rounded literature and draw their own conclusions in life. The issue with you and many other haters is that you're conflating his commercial interests with the rest of him. The dude wants to make a buck. Big deal.

You're right because it's not a particularly important to focus on his media appearances but I will because that's the medium he operates now. I personally found it a bigger strength of character when he was putting content on his own channel instead of flittering around with e-celebs as a way of promoting his work.

But then again, I also find him to be a whiny scrote so that might actually be why I'm more critical of him than, say, Zizek who does basically the same thing but hasn't lost his humour when doing so. Or even when somebody like Foucault would make appearances on French TV, appearing like a raving madman, eyes bulging out of his face like he's about to concoct an absolutely mad scheme to take over the world right then and there.

I think his idea still stands with adults. The frontal lobe develops in the early 20s and the views they had as a teen don't change as much the older they get. Like the whole dad rock cliché where they don't update their musical tastes-- Omg, Hendrix, Lou Reed, Led Zeppelin and Oasis.

Ideologically and philosophically, it's the same. They tend to be ground down by a career, a family, pacified by TV every evening, but the issues that caused them to adopt a pocketful of deities in the first place like existential worry, nihilism, relativism, and their lowly status in their small tribe means deep down they still have that pocketful of deities to shape their world, their values and modes of thinking. Its just been a while since they revisited the foundations of their belief structures.

Around middle age, most guys are dealing with the death of their own parents, have an almost promoted to pack leader by default status, so are less inclined to overhaul their values and just build more shit on top, but the same Gods that they worshipped in college; Milton Friedman, Ayn Rand, Marx, Johnny Rotten, Henry Kissinger, Iggy Pop, whoever it was, are still there as their Gods whose shoulders they built their world narratives on, and you'd probably uncover them if you did some digging.

man i've never seen a guy promote a book in such a short period of time as this guy has

his marketing scheme was basically to give 2 public lectures in London, do a 30 min interview on their evening news network, then come back to north america and do an episode on all of the top podcasts among millenials . epic!

Peterson on the H3H3 podcast was pretty good, he talked about the benefits of people going out of their way to read more and how YouTube is similar to the printing press, giving every user a voice to be heard with. Felt quite optimistic.
