10/10 post. Would read again.
The little of JP I've seen included a lot of Fisher Price assumptions on how societies are structured - seemingly ignoring successful societies with different structures that survived far longer than modern social democractic ones have so far. Not that that inheritantly disproves him, but it seems like they have been ignored.

This discussion about Daddy Peters Peterson has gone almost exactly how I thought it would: massively off course and having to explain basic parts of philosophy and history.
Peterson is the philosophy equivalent of BLB: looks good when you’re first getting into the field but the longer you stick around the more surface you realise it is. People on the outside think that BLB is a good example of ‘that thing you’re into’, but you try explaining how a good steel bike with a campag shifter from the 1970s is actually shizznits now and they are going to act all confused.
