    Jordan Peterson is essential... especially for young men.

    He helped me drastically transform my life. He’s not a masculinity teacher. He’s not an alt-right troll. He’s not a Christian philosopher. He’s not the smartest man in the world...

    But his advice can really help you put your life together... some of it is simple, but some of it is beyond helpful.

    I was 20~ years old when I discovered him, and I’m 24 right now, and I couldn’t even imagine where I’d be without his advice and guidance.

    He taught psychology. He isnt a professor for any of the political or historical bullshit he pushes

    He’s a clinical psychologist, and he taught a class at Harvard (and possibly U of T) that went into the historical significance of biblical stories and mythology, his book Maps of Meaning came out 20~ years ago, and it extensively goes over history and religion... and he used that book as a textbook for his class.

    imagine giving another man this much control in your life

    the only advice young men need is M.O.B.

    Listening to someone who talks extensively about taking responsibility in your life is the opposite of him having control in your life. Literally... the opposite.

    peterson ultimately means well and is a pseudo-father figure for a lot of people who don't have one. i don't think he's an expert across the board. he's a psychologist whose self help stuff is good (albeit sometimes overrated) for people who need that type of advice, but that's where things kinda end.
    his weird dive into health advice (like the meat diet thing?) and political views are kind of unneeded and a result of him being pushed into the spotlight which inflated his ego imo. his actual psychology stuff i find okay and i don't think he's a bad person. i don't understand people that wish death on him.
    ultimately if he's a pseudo-father figure, you get the same effects as a real father figure; dads don't know everything, but they mean well. they have things they're good at and things they aren't, but both of those are gonna rub off on you either way just by notion of looking up to them. it's just emphasized a lot more because he has a celebrity following as opposed to just being the older dude in your home
