Yep, talking about the same guy. See the picture I posted and look closer at the background. The greatest poisons of our age are packed in a nice sweet layer.
He's not closer to communism because he's a leaf, he's closer because he works (and worked officially for over two years) for the UN.
If you want to see where people are deceptive, look at the conversations that make them squirm. He's had a few and his veil slips. I know a few people who are nice and think they are moral, but are actual communists and don't even realize it. Some people are even more deceptive than that though.
Radical individualism is a mechanism to weaponize individualism such that we all have our own filter bubbles. It's like the ultimate divide and conquer method. He's a psychotherapists and many are soothing talkers.
What is actually required is interdependence and a sense of national protection and pride in ourselves. He is actually against that.
Again, I'm awfully surprised to see this coming from you.
Be careful of idolizing anyone. Don't idolize me. And, it seems you somewhat idolize Peterson.
I don't want to pop your bubble, so I'll leave it at that.
I'm not convinced. I don't think individualism is that bad.
He backed off the JQ on purpose because he was poisoned.
Also, just because someone works for the epicenter of globalism doesn't mean they can't be a detractor. See George Washington for instance.

You're right, it's not when considering it by itself. But, when mixed with anti group identity then what happens is actually the effect of a loss. Individualism is the end goal of cultural Marxism and was written about in this way in the Frankfurt School. It is, in a way, grooming toward narcissism and is a stage to the final goal which is no identity.
Again, the analogy of pain relief is apt here. In this case, the pain is caused by having our identities being weaponized against us. So, the pain relief is to cower back and figure out what our individual identity is. When Peterson talks about not moving on from this is where his ideas become an issue for the health of the nation.
He backed off the JQ
This and other things are where he squirmed. Also, he squirmed and becomes visceral when those around him question him on "group identity" and his communist ideal (i.e. anti-identity) become clear.
because he was poisoned.
If this is true, it makes him controlled opposition. I don't hold blame if that's the case, but it would be true nonetheless.
Also, just because someone works for the epicenter of globalism doesn't mean they can't be a detractor. See George Washington for instance.
Agreed. Working there is a partial indication that he's in their cabal though. I've watched hundreds of hours and read his second book and other articles.
So I find that there are additional indications such as: all of the communist paraphernalia he has in his house, the people he associates with are controlled ops, that he is an honorary member part of a first nations tribe but denounces nationalism (this is a paradox), he has been softballed easy pylon knock down feminist targets and won't debate nationalists or race realists on the basis of "they're racists" (why not crush and debunk them??), he lied several times in his lectures about Hitler and the events of WW2, and (among other reasons) he has not stood up for real free speech situations in Canada other than the two incidents that concerned him all the while creates committees and talks about free speech.
It's quite possible that he doesn't understand the moral and metaphysical battle and is in over his head, but I'm weighing the probabilities.
Please also keep in mind that if I was to have a spell I could cast to take away all the opium from society, that doesn't mean I'm for those with pain to have pain.
I propose a couple of moral alternatives which are more structured and empowering to what many of us need, and again shows up Peterson's ideas. There are others as well but I realize what you said about being verbose so I'll just provide these two.
1) The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People (the first half of this book in a way is what Jordan Peterson pushes, but the second half brings group empowerment).
2) Tribal Leadership. They propose there are 5 categories (levels) of leadership. In my own words they are: Despair (Life Sucks), Depression (Life sucks for me, but not for others), Narcissism (I'm awesome), Group Tribalism (Our Team Rocks), and Group Harmony and Goal Focus (World Hunger is the Enemy). In this context, Jordan Peterson sets people toward level 3, narcissism and denounces moving up the chain because of "racism".
I'm pretty glad you're bringing this to my attention. I enjoy the way you've framed this.
Frankly, I've been convinced for a while that JP is controlled opposition. It doesn't mean he's unhelpful, though, like AJ, Joe Rogan or even people (to an extent) like Shapiro.
The thing is, there's a reason ecelebs get so much attention on platforms like halfchan. They're all valuable but have glaring faults.
As you've said, this makes the faults of idolizing people evident.
Surprisingly, you've cleared up my outstanding issue with Peterson. He was allowed to see the spotlight for a reason, was punished when he ventured too far and became an agent for the very thing he was standing up against. Poor guy...
Check out Maynard James Keenan and his transformation. I think you'll find the pattern emerging is quite transparent. We're only allowed to see people that have glaring faults. There will never be another Jesus... as much as that sucks.
