sounding learned and subscribing to ideologies with a lot of jargon and lore (for lack of a better word) is back in fashion. all the depression/socialism/highbrow-lowbrow pastiche memes that kids love these days smack of it, sure. it's ironic that zizek's main thrust through his entire public career is that received wisdom has to be thoroughly interrogated and that truth is very rarely intuitive

"fashion" is the right word. it is fashionable to have pretty ideas. it is fashionable to hold salon-style intellectual discussions. it is fashionable to be part of an intellectual dark web, and to "break the matrix" by conducting philosophical investigations in an open forum.

i have no issue with this. i like visiting YouTube and seeing popular content about the things i like. i only hope that, at some point, it will be "fashionable" to do all of the above without ostentation, and to regard all thoughts as just neutral graduations in a big dialectic. they're not /my/ thoughts or /your/ thoughts, but just degrees of hot and cold - either nearer to or further away from truth, which is both common property and a common end

Peterson just got exposed as a dilettante, and a poor one at that.

1) Anyone who has taken a 100 level course on Marx could have given as good or better of a rundown and critique of the Communist Manifesto that Peterson gave.
2) No serious Marxist reads the meme pamphlet Marx wrote for uneducated workers, it's not an academic source, it's a propaganda piece.
3) Peterson, although claiming to have read and understood at least a modicum of Zizek's works, was not able to produce a single meaningful critique of his theory, even going so far as to be impressed with Zizek's take on Christianity
3a) Peterson is in many ways a scholar of religion, in particular Judeo-Christianity; he also critiques Marxism for being an athiest doctrine which rejects these principles. So if Peterson had done so much as read Zizek's wikipedia article, let alone an article on him in an encyclopedia of philosophy, let alone read one of his books on Christianity, he would have known this position and not been impressed by it. It means he didn't even watch Pervert's Guide to Ideology. Incredible lack of research.
4) Peterson did not stick to his position that Marxism was bad, instead retreating to a simple repetition of his individualism (at one point admitting that the heart of the individualism leads to the position that you must do what is best for the community anyways "good enough for you/your family isn't enough" which basically recasts JP's position as individually enlightened Marxism)
5) Peterson hasn't read Critique of the Gotha program which is shorter than the Manifesto and much more important (reminder this intellectual has been arguing against the evils of Marx for decades and hasn't even read him in any meaningful sense since he was 18).
6) By the end, Peterson wasn't even able to formulate an argument against the form of Marxism which Zizek promotes. His only point to the debate which had any relevance was to point out Capitalism's productive force, a fact that he also admits Marx agrees with and discusses at length in the Manifesto.
7) Peterson being pressed on and subsequently not able to name a single postmodern neomarxist needs no explication.

Peterson has been exposed as someone who has no real education (or perhaps intellectual interest) in political theory. I am actually amazed there are people who watched this debate and think Peterson managed even the bare minimum of understanding of both Marxist theory and the historical realities of capitalist dynamics.

1) Anyone who has taken a 100 level course on Marx could have given a better argument for socialism that Zizek gave.
2) No serious Petersonian reads the meme self-help book Peterson wrote for teenagers, it's not an academic source, it's a self-help book

So if Zizek had done so much as read wikipedia article on socialism, let alone an article on him in an encyclopedia of philosophy, let alone read one of his books on Christianity, he would have known this position and not been impressed by it. It means he didn't even read Maps of meaning. Incredible lack of research.
4) Zizek did not stick to his position that Marxism was good, instead retreating to a simple repetition of his Hegelianism
5) Zizek hasn't read The Rational Optimist or Enlightenment Now. Books that brutally btfo Marxism with facts and logic (reminder this intellectual has been arguing for Marx for decades and hasn't even read single book on basic economy or human nature since he was 18).
6) By the end, Zizek wasn't even able to formulate an argument against the form of Liberal conservatism which Peterson promotes. His only point to the debate which had any relevance was to point out inequality in Capitalism, a fact that he also admits Peterson agrees with and discusses at length in the Maps.
7) Zizek being pressed on and subsequently not able to name a single evil capitalist needs no explication.

i always knew someone like peterson would pop up and expose how corrupt the education system is but i thought it would be someone from my generation. I'll be a non-contrarian and say that I'm grateful for his work. the 2016 lectures on personality and maps of meaning are particularly useful.

Left-wing postmodernism as it exists today isn't supposed to be intellectually coherent, it is a ruling ideology developed to justify the rule of the current American elite. (yes it is as American as apple pie). Literally nothing about it needs to be coherent, it is pure power.

>the practical point of having diversity quotas is allowing recognized marginalized groups enter positions that would otherwise not be available to them and thus giving better perspectives for the future of the community.

1. Why?
They have to go back to whatever the shithole they came from or go into an oven.

Peterson is a genuinely interesting and well-versed professional when it comes to his area of expertise. His knowledge is obviously lacking in certain subjects and fairly entry-level, and Peterson is well aware of it and always open to criticism on his opinions. He's nowhere close to the pseudointellectual charlatan that the opposition makes him out to be.

i think his work is perceived as entry-level because he's been lecturing to second-year psychology students for 20 years. maps of meaning is quite an in depth look at the evolution of consciousness. 12 rules was geared towards the general population.
