Jordan Peterson isn't a dumbass, he's a fucking idiot, completely different, dumbasses are fun and have redeemable qualities about them, we don't know what we're doing, but we're having fun doing it, fucking idiots are just miserable sacks of shit with no redeemable qualities at all.
But I could be wrong , I don't know wtf I'm doing anymore.

I would describe the difference by how the person responds to the labeling.

I'm not sure. You are the one confused about you being Jordan Peterson or not.
I guess that the question boils down to to having redeemable qualities. At least using your own definition.
If you have them then you aren't Jordan Peterson, of you don't than I have bad news.
dumbass@aussie.zone · 10 pts · 314d
It was more a joke about me smoking weed and not being able to keep a room tidy for shit.
But just for the record: I do not, have never, nor will ever agree with the views of the crying lobster benzo bitch boy named Jordan Peterson, not in this reality or any of the other realities where he spouts this insane shit through more tears than an onion cutting convention.

Wait, he is a crackhead telling you to stop taking drugs and clean your room.. Of course cleaning your room is going to make you feel better you fucking moron, he needs to go back into that induced coma for a while.

So apparently benzo boi has some issues with taking the dirt road.
I've found some mud for my turtle over the years, but I don't recall ever slaying a dragon. Not even metaphorically. Some partners really liked it, though. My own attitude was more like "yeah, OK, if you're into it" rather then fetishizing it or elevating it to some cosmic battle between order and chaos.
captainlezbian@lemmy.world · 85 pts · 314d
I don't like the man, he seriously sucks, but he needs an official wellness check. He's clearly becoming increasingly mentally disabled and things like this keep happening in his daughter's custody.
That's not a spiritual attack, it's mold induced pneumonia in a man with brain damage. He could easily be less capable of resisting the mold. Why the fuck was a man with brain damage trying to clean a moldy room without assistanceā½
Like, seriously for all I hate the man I really get no joy from this, I don't want him taken away as punishment or anything, I'm mostly concerned for him. I don't think that the Peterson of a decade ago would be putting the Peterson of today in these positions.

spacemint_rhino@lemmy.ml · 22 pts · 314d
(Kermit voice) What do you mean by mold? Mold in the metaphysical interpretation is a the creeping darkness of social isolation in the post modern environment that young men find themselves. Mold is the hidden predator that consumes even the dragon, the darkness that reflects the greater unknown that surrounds even the leviathan. If you take Moby Dick for instance, mold is the true antagonist, the great depths that surround and threaten both the protagonist, your physical self, and the whale, your metaphysical antithesis! Itās perplexing and Iām just on the verge of being able to understand it and perceive it, itās right on the verge of my limitations to understand! tears up

Just keep on keepin' on. I'm surprised you haven't also got Morgellons and fibromyalgia. And get one of those mold testing kits from Home Depot and ask a responsible adult to swab a few samples and mail it back. At least that might narrow things down a bit.

This is the will of Elohim. Peterson is a wicked man, and he's being punished for his sins. He's violated the first commandment far more often than most people. He does it for every meal.

chillhelm@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 313d
Elohim is one if the possible interpretations of the Hebrew name of God (or maybe it was one of the words Orthodox Jewish people use to invoke God without saying their name).
Presumably the person you are replying to is referring to the American constitution (yay American defaultism). But that one can literally only be violated by the government which afaik is not Jordan Peterson.

Wasn't he constantly barred out on benzos a decade ago?
captainlezbian@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 309d
Yeah then he went to Russia to be put in a coma to get clean. He went to Russia because Canadian and American physicians refused. Since he woke up he's developed a reputation for crying in a lot of his public appearances including in situations where most people would be embarrassed to get that worked up. Like I think literary analysis is cool too and I can get emotional about it, but as a 30 year old woman I absolutely would not publish a take of a video in which I'm crying about the loyalty of the lancer to the hero and how it can serve to remind us of the value of friendship. Like the fact that that keeps happening to him indicates that he has a level of impairment to his emotional regulation.
And I'll admit he was always an emotional guy. And it's great that he was so willing to be vulnerable (though I suspect he'd be very unhappy with that description of himself), it's just that while "boys don't cry" is toxic masculinity, "there's a time and a place for crying" is a cultural expectation.
LustyArgonianMana@lemmy.world · -1 pts · 313d
It's genuinely possibly an experiment or poisoning by Russia. He was in Russia for a month or so in a coma to get off benzos. It could also be his sunstance use flaring up. I do not really believe the mold story from the daughter (who is very creepy).
captainlezbian@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 313d
Hanlon's razor here: he went looking for any doctors who would do the procedure he wanted and couldn't get it in north America or any of Europe west of Russia. That indicates that it's stupidly dangerous without any foul play
LustyArgonianMana@lemmy.world · -2 pts · 313d
Do you really believe that? That he couldn't find ANY doctors to do it except Russia? Or is that just a convenient excuse to go to Russia?

Benzos are super potent mast cell inhibitors, coming off that insane benzo addiction has probably highly sensitised his mast cells which signal for the immune system. Exposure to mold is a common trigger for those with mast cell related disease. As are many foods which he has eliminated
Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works · 8 pts · 314d
TIL.
This is fascinating, every once in a while you come across these comments that are truly edifying.
LustyArgonianMana@lemmy.world · 0 pts · 313d
Sure but when a mast cell degranulates, it releases histamine, prostaglandins, and other stuff. He isn't in the hospital for continuous anaphylaxis or pain/inflammation from like PGE2, he is there for a "mold infection." It seems more likely that his mast cells perhaps died off rather than sensitized due to lack of use / chronic suppression and now he has almost like self induced AIDs/weakened immune system. And probably some vitamin deficiencies exacerbating everything.
Looking through the literature, chronic benzo use is indeed associated with weakened immune systems AND paradoxically heightened immune responses, probably due to genetic and environmental variability in response to taking those.
I still think he did some weird ass treatment with his coma in Russia though that he isn't telling anyone about.

I had mast cell issues that resulted in me getting anaphylaxis to seemingly nothing several times, so everyone is different ofc.

ggtdbz@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 22 pts · 314d
I really do think thereās a very definite before and after. At one point, he seemed to figure out exactly the cadence and wording that young men especially wanted out of a wisdom-dispensing fatherly figure. He got a lot of mileage out of whining about that one Canadian law proposal, at a time when transgendery things were (for better or for worse) less understood by most people. So even if you were sympathetic to them, there was a chance that what he was describing would raise your eyebrow. In my case I didnāt think I had anything against them, but he painted this picture of a law that could be easily abused, even if it was ostensibly in good faith. And he was careful not to comment on whether or not he thought it was one. Didnāt matter that the narrative he was peddling was pretty much fiction in the first place.
And then COVID broke his brain, and he very suddenly became terrible at hiding his power level. Part of his audience just knew him as that guy who wrote that book, but after selling increasingly political books titled āAll you need to do to live (part 4, last one)ā and āAll you need to do to live (part 5, okay no this is the last one I promise.final)ā that illusion also fell apart.
Right now most of the people who looked up to him at the time, even those who both still are (and even those who acknowledge) that they are right wing, think heās lost the plot.
Itās not a great reassurance that those who let go of him may still have probably been swayed net-rightward by his stuff. But his spiral and widespread perception as a laughing stock, and as a clear example of lack of moral integrity on the right, is also a major piece of what he represents now. His red crying mug in his messy room has become a meme with a life of own. This is what he really is: a pompous, pontificating, fragile prick who canāt even use the good parts of his advice for his own sake. Even if itās as simple as touching grass and cleaning up your shit.
::: spoiler I guess Iām technically an ex-follower of his.
At one point in my life, during his rise, I had a vaguely positive view of him, after he was presented as a guest on what was definitely not a conservative podcast (great moves Ethan, proud of you!). I even bought his book. I viewed myself squarely as an open minded liberal person, and saw him as just a moderate. Coming from a socially conservative part of the world, no alarm bells rang for me. But after continued learning, and meeting new people, I was able to rebuild a much more robust and morally sound view of the world and how it works. I recognized how caustic a lot of my beliefs, many that he confirmed/reinforced, actually are.
One of the few things I miss from the old site is /r/ExLobster, it was so enlightening to see how many others went through the same process I did with this guy. It also took the edge off the embarrassment I felt about falling into his world in the first place. I was just vulnerable to his shit at that point in my life, it was literally designed for people in my situation, and thereās no shame in picking yourself up and moving forward. And then COVID happened, in parallel with a multidimensional meltdown in my country, and while he put himself in a coma and cooked his brain, I was out there, supporting the medical system, doing charitable work and then mutual aid work, and I came out the other side with a radically new and solid foundation for my beliefs. A model of how society should run that ran counter to a lot of what he preached as common sense.
But you know what was the tipping point for me? Itās a very silly little thing I saw, and I donāt recall particularly when. Probably while I was still a bit in it. I always used to intentionally avoid his subreddit because I thought I was an enlightened centrist (finding the good in his work but not uncritically engaging with it) who was above those weird right wingers who dominated that community. But I opened it on a whim once. And someone was asking about āJordan-Peterson ideology compatible Animeā. Not sure what the exact words were. But there you go. Sometimes you need to see a word salad like that to see how ridiculous the company youāre keeping actually is.
:::
I think heās a fascinating case study of the grift economy. I genuinely think that if he was truly the conservalib old-soul psychology professor with an interest in the way Christian theology and vague folktale cosmology influence modern worldviews and narratives, he would definitely be someone Iād pay attention to. At least for his areas of expertise. I still yearn for someone like that to exist. Shitheads should not monopolize any topic.
But we know now that he was always mad as a hatter, that he was trying to get famous a decade before he actually did, and that his actual beliefs donāt deserve an iota of public recognition. That the ways he couched them are the sum total of what he was bringing to the table.
The mythological Jordan Peterson isnāt necessarily a bad guy, the original character, as played in like 2016. The actual one is a pathetic, and now failed cult of personality grifter, an enabler of great evil.
I hope he feels a fraction of the pain he has caused before he kicks it.

Right? She was told to stop and took that as rape threat. Fucking bizarre.
She even went back to my account to spam a long diatribe, and then got banned by another mod team.
She's not acting in good faith.

Because I embarrassed them in front of others and their egos can't take the shame. I had a list of some of the threads of obscene misogynistic behavior I've seen on Lemmy and it included mods.

Given that this guy wrote about a dream he had wherein his grandmother grabbed a fistful of her pubes and stroked his face with them while asking him to comment on how soft they were, I think we can rule out demonic attack. They may be the minions of Satan, but even demons would be like "bro, what the fuck?!?"

I guarantee his daughter is poisoning him so she can take his place and make even more grifting money
Fedizen@lemmy.world · 9 pts · 313d
Legitimately. After seeing the vultures trying to put on Charlie Kirk's skinsuit it seems like the way to rise up in the grifting ranks is to kill the current grifter and take their place.
Edit: I don't think people state enough that charlie kirk had hundreds of millions of dollars at age 31. He was well on his way to retiring as a billionaire. The guy was literally a sellout and now there's at least a dozen grifters lining up to get at the billionaire money-faucets he had.

Yes, elsewhere itt I have speculated that JP illness could be from something the Russians did when he was there for his coma.

Something like this, polonium poisoning that affected maybe 700 other people before they realized what it was.
LustyArgonianMana@lemmy.world · -2 pts · 313d
It's probably Russia if anyone is poisoning him

he did go there to get a dangerous coma, that caused brain damage.

hes called a pseudointellectual, his psychobabble in his earlier years seem like its a good idea, but if you dissect it, its meaningless gibberish meant to give mostly Men false hope. someone like kirk is anti-intellectual and pseudointellectual.

I asked chat gpt and I understand now. Its a movement that opposes feminism. Im not American and I dont follow politics so maybe everyone knows this but I just havent come across it myself.
āAlt-right.ā Short for alternative right. It began around 2010 as a loose coalition rejecting mainstream conservatism in the United States. Early figures used the term to distance themselves from traditional Republican politics while promoting ideas around ethnic nationalism, āWestern civilization,ā and opposition to feminism and immigration. The ideology draws from far-right, white-identitarian, and sometimes explicitly racist or antisemitic thought. Its online presence flourished through imageboards (4chan, 8chan), blogs, and later social media.
āManosphere.ā An online network of forums, YouTube channels, and influencers focused on menās issues, often framed in opposition to feminism. Inside it are sub-groups: ā Menās Rights Activists (MRAs) who claim legal or social bias against men. ā Pickup Artists (PUAs) teaching manipulative dating tactics. ā Men Going Their Own Way (MGTOW) rejecting relationships with women entirely. ā Incel communities blaming women for sexual frustration.
While some participants discuss legitimate gender issues, the discourse commonly devolves into resentment toward women and social hierarchies based on dominance.

If you don't have three free hours to watch it, yes he says fucked up things in other videos. He's also smart enough to say the bullshit in a way that sounds reasonable to people who don't know any better.

In short he doesn't know what he's talking about, confidently spreads lies and misinformation, insists that trans folks are destroying the world, buries good faith debate in bullshit semantic circles, and cries like a baby when anyone calls him out on his bullshit.
