Yes. I think he is a rather uninspired political philosopher in comparison to Hobbes, Rousseau, and even Montesquieu. I can appreciate the novelty of deriving normative rights from the state of nature argument (at least, more normative rights than mere self preservation), but that's all he really does that is worth mentioning. I guess his discussion of labour and property rights is okay too.

Locke is exceptionally ponderous and one doesn't lose anything in reading distillations or summaries of his main ideas.

Locke is absolute trash. Read Hobbes and Burke instead.
