I'm glad that he's back. There really was a void for awhile there that he seems to fill for intellectual honesty (I get that there are others as well- but he has something unique.)

Maybe we need Dr MD MD to make some sense of this.

“Political correctness and its guillotine blade, cancel culture, is the palsy of our days. There is no vaccine for this scourge, and there is no one looking for a vaccine. Peterson’s resistance against both is, in my view, one of the truly virtuous and courageous actions of our time. No wonder he is so viciously maligned.”

Probably the only real journalist in Canada is Murphy.

Has Mr. Murphy ever been on American television, wonders I? And what would they make of him?

We get CBC up here, he is great but I suspect his tea is taken with rather too much lemon.

Access to the CBC have I but such outright propaganda is it now that never do I watch it anymore. He is the exception to the rule.

I had assumed that he was a "thing of the past." You are telling me that the communist broadcasting corporation allows him on still? I may have to look him up.

I know not. Years has it been since I have watched because of their horrible propagandizing. Makes sense it does given their shameless communist propagandizing that they would try to get rid of him though.

Peterson is a word salad BS specialist, a humbug, and a pussy. He put out this book giving life advice to young people, then it turned out he got hooked on painkillers. He wasn't man enough to go through withdrawal so he had himself put into a coma and had health complications as a result. Another one of these dodgy characters that the right see as some sort of hero. He isn't, he's a useless cunt.

Honest the last thing, is he. Heard the dumb bastard talk about truth, have you? He can't even accept that there are verifiable facts about the world, he's too busy waffling on about 'narratives '

Specifically, what advice of his disagree with you do and why?

Hold their breath waiting for an answer no one should.

All this advice he gives comes under the heading of being a 'deepity'.

'A deepity is a proposition that seems to be profound because it is actually logically ill-formed. It has (at least) two readings and balances precariously between them. On one reading it is true but trivial. And on another reading it is false, but would be earth-shattering if true.'

If he says something true it is trivial and obvious. If he says something profound it is false. For instance: his claim that something is true if it is useful, and he uses that false premise to smuggle in religious belief as necessarily true. What JP does is the sort of dialectical logic-chopping that gives the left a bad name and would normally be scoffed at by the right if it wasn't coming from their own side.

Yes, convinced me have you of how truly evil he is. ::)
