The Jordan Peterson Question

MagnusVeritas · 2018-02-08T08:54:45+00:00

His counters to feminism and SJWs are the most formidable I've encountered. Nonetheless, he is very much blue-pilled.

It's important to not adopt an absolute stance on the man by recognising the manner in which he is in alignment with MGTOW in spite of how he is not.

Though he's openly renounced MGTOW, the enemy of my enemy is very much my friend. Peterson, as an enemy of feminism and gynocentrism, is therefore our friend.

Should "friend" be too strong a word, he is at the very least, an unwitting agent of MGTOW.

No we are all not agreed on that. I consider him one of the great minds of our century, I listen to him daily and he's changed my outlook on alot.

Eat the meat, spit out the bone.

Absolutely not. In which ways is the world’s foremost (at least as far as mainstream media is concerned) anti-feminist, anti-sjw a cuck?

I don't following him directly, I've only read a few of the media articles on the Cathy Newman interview. My understanding is he is very much opposed to identity politics. That is a position I fully support and wish him success in fighting it.

As for whether he is a tradcon, I don't really care. I don't have a binary view of the world where "you are either with us or against us". But I do enjoy reading about SJWs getting triggered by him.

Ohboohoolittlegirl · 2018-02-08T09:10:36+00:00

I truly do not care. I do what I want to do and let people live their lives in peace. Why would I spend my time on someone I will most likely not meet.

2018-02-08T08:47:22+00:00

No.

Obviously I disagree with him on some of his conclusions, but he makes sense on a lot of topics.

ThisIsSevenOfSwords · 2018-02-08T08:57:16+00:00

Yeah. He's a tradcuck. He supports the gynocracy by encouraging young men that they need to have children and have kids in order to consider themselves as an adult/validated. He can burn with the SJWs and fascists.

BoskOfPortKar · 2018-02-08T09:23:15+00:00

He is one of the most dangerous cucks.

Seems to be on our side and then... "Hey guys, come back to the plantation ! It is your duty as men !"

RadicalAsceticMonk · 2018-02-08T12:25:57+00:00

He hires the worst, most obvious shills, that's for sure.

Xein · 2018-02-08T15:18:53+00:00

As a Psychologist, I really appreciate him. The field is EXTREMELY bluepilled and more like him are needed to help combat SJWs. He makes a lot of good points, but ultimately advocates for getting back to the plantation.

I do think people are getting carried away with basically worshiping this guy.

gMoneytz · 2018-02-08T13:51:52+00:00

I dont care if he agrees with MGTOW or not.

He makes lots of good points on many issues, and I'm not joining any jackass hivemind to "go to war" against him because I demand that he has to agree with this one thing.

The world is too damn volatile right now to make good the enemy of perfect needlessly.

DagonNaxos · 2018-02-08T17:42:38+00:00

I think he's a bright guy with a lot of good points. I happen to like the way he explains things. He's made me not absolutely haye religion for the first time in 25 years, even though I'm still very mich anti theistic. Same goes for women and relationships. His biological essentialism makes interesting points. He doesn't like MGTOW because he is a TradCon and has a view of the way the world used to and probably should function, based on biological success of the species. The key with him and in life is that it's okay to listen to opposing viewpoints, but still realize the sovereign nature of ones own self. In short, as was said above, chew the meat but spit out the bones.

ColdStoryBro · 2018-02-08T20:58:27+00:00

The things he says aren't particularly transformative. They are common sense conclusions that we've made for quite a long time. What really surprises me is the amount of praise he gets for making the same basic common sense explanations (really goes to show how brainwashed and desperate people are for a backlash movement). He's beginning to become a poster child of the anti-SJW/feminism resistance because he is articulate and has an esteemed position in his field. But to say he's "one of the greatest minds of our time" is obnoxious.

MGTOW-Philosopher · 2018-02-09T23:35:06+00:00

I talked about him in my most recent podcast. Linked below. I think he is a smart guy, but I also think he is a dishonest One. He willfully ignores that which is inconvenient to him, while castigating that which is not. Essentially he tells the truth when it's convenient, and only when it's convenient. When it comes to the rest he simply ignores it for fear of offending his base, or he actually believes certain things that are anathema to what objective reality tells us.

I like much of what he says, but I also dislike his blue pilled approach to relationships, and his trad con bent. He is being willfully ignorant in these regards. Basically he does not deserve to be worshiped as a hero.

I don't even see that as a question.

CriticalVariation · 2018-02-13T08:25:12+00:00

After watching many hours of his lectures, I can say that while I greatly enjoy his content, he has failed to convince me that being anything but a MGTOW is the right course of action in this day and age. Ultimately, the tradcons have lost the argument.
