What does he not have going for him? Why haven't you taken the petersonpill yet?

You must have missed 2017, 90% of threads were about Peterson. He was a good dad and told us to make our beds. Now he's more of a Scuffed Dr. House.

> “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.”

I don't like him because he throws around "postmodern neo-Marxists" as a boogeyman, when he's never read Marx (beyond the Communist Manifesto before the Zizek debate, kek), Foucault, anything from the Frankfurt School, or anything else he criticizes and identifies as the cause of modern day political trends (which is pretty shaky, one, and two, the idea that academia is top-down indoctrinating students into their political activism is silly conspiratorial dribble). He consistently speaks outside his discipline, doesn't do his homework, and justifies lazy reactionary crybabies, who I wouldn't care about I'd they stayed in their containment zone instead of shitting up every thread with right-wing bullshit

Hes literally right about post modern Neo Marxists. The content of their ideology doesnt matter, the practical results do. And both the post modernists and the Marxists are hell bent on subverting traditional institutions. If you are a defender of traditional institutions and values, it doesnt matter what flag your enemy holds, what matters is that they are your enemy.

Leave the board please. Nietzsche's father was a Lutheran pastor. Nietzsche knew more about Christianity than you ever will. That's why his criticisms are so good.

Brainlet. You don't need to be a communist to find Marx interesting or informative. His critiques of capitalism have held up well over time, and historical materialism had an enormous impact on history and countless other fields.

Thank you, I hope he does as well. This is one of the reasons I respect Buckley far more than Peterson, I don't know why the right doesn't idolize him more

William Buckley's name is regularly invoked by writers in the National Review and American Conservative. But not the common folk who make up most conservatives nowadays.

Off the top of my head:
Frank S Meyer
Allan Bloom
Russell Kirk
Charles Murray
Roger Scruton
Milton Friedman
Thomas Sowell

They're not that unusual. They were significantly more common in the 70s-90s; most of the living ones are just guys from that era who are still alive today.

Peterson is a pop intellectual he's just regurgitating the ideas of others. When you put his works against others he's essentially a sophist he has no original works, he's just a good psychotherapist, if there was such a thing.

Don't forget Nietzsche went to school for theology, and he even tells us to study religion then we are able to look back at it in superiority.
