i think a big part of his appeal to conservatives is this thing that, like, he's an academic and he's a little bit inscrutable. Like the joke during 27 was that his ben in jerry's flavor was, that's not what i meant. This is an excert from a very good neyor times profile of jordan peterson. Sohe is taking this sort of jungian idea about archetypes...and trying to express it in a way that seems very literal. Impossible to read this fucking man.
Oops all meat: How a '50s bodybuilder, a Grateful Dead roadie and an unreadable professor accidentally launched one of America's wildest fad diets.
Here's Mike's "Cancel Culture" video!
Note: In our discussion of Jordan Peterson’s political correctness lecture, I made a sarcastic comment about looking “slim in this dress.” After the episode came out, we started hearing from listeners that my comment reminded them of fatphobic jokes they’d heard in the past and didn’t feel consistent with the message of the show. They were right! It was a bad joke and we've removed it from the episode. We'll be discussing this and our approach to handling feedback and editing past episodes in more detail soon. Thanks to everyone who wrote in to let us know! — Mike
