Seems like you’ve found zen. I’m getting that JbP book too, he’s a sharp mind. Need someone like him doing fireside chats during these times, broadcasted to everyone

Yes I dont really get why peterson gets so much hate, sure everything he says has been said before and hes not putting forth anything new but he puts it in a way that is really digestible.

That's interesting, because I've heard he favors traditional gender roles from left leaning critics, not the traditional view of a feminist.

Im part way through ‘a short history of nearly everything’ now, and whilst it’s written in a surprisingly humorous / engaging way, it’s not something I find myself picking up a whole lot.

I’m only at the point talking about the Australian astronomer that finds super nova on his back porch.

Is it good?

>> No.15052296

>>15052270
Yes I found it great as it wasn’t too heavy with science jargon nor did it try to be too clever with it wit
I rate it highly and plan to read it ever 3 or 4 years as it’s just a nice easy read

The first rule of his book is literally "take your pills". Pic related.
He's a mentally-ill Satanic retard who pretends to be
(a) Christian
(b) conservative
and props up his fame by preying on low-status lobster men.

“I dreamed I saw my maternal grandmother sitting by the bank of a swimming pool, that was also a river. In real life, she had been a victim of Alzheimer’s disease, and had regressed, before her death, to a semi-conscious state. In the dream, as well, she had lost her capacity for self-control. Her genital region was exposed, dimly; it had the appearance of a thick mat of hair. She was stroking herself, absent-mindedly. She walked over to me, with a handful of pubic hair, compacted into something resembling a large artist’s paint-brush. She pushed this at my face. I raised my arm, several times, to deflect her hand; finally, unwilling to hurt her, or interfere with her any farther, I let her have her way. She stroked my face with the brush, gently, and said, like a child, “isn’t it soft?” I looked at her ruined face and said, “yes, Grandma, it’s soft.”

Stop bullshitting, he’s a human being with flaws like the rest of us. His wife is dying of cancer and hes taking benzos. An anti-anxiety medication. He has the ability unlike many people, to realize he has a problem and must seek help to help him kick his benzo use.

>haha he took pills. Checkmate sheeple
I don’t care if he’s on benzos. His lectures were still interesting and I found them insightful. Just more the anti-e-celeb train.

Yes I’m a student in the uk and whilst the left aren’t a schizo as in the US they are still the left
I find I’m usually more informed on their beliefs and views than the actually are
Many claim to be communists but don’t underwent the basics of marx
