It's a wonderful thing to see Petersen turning more lives around, for the better, than you two cocksuckers could ever hope for.

whose life has he turned around? Apart from his dealers that is ... I'm sure he made a lot of money from Peterson

No. he's clearly had a dramatic effect on many lives.

He can't leave his house without being approached and thanked by many for his help.

It overwhelms him, and causes him to break down in tears.

what overwhelms him is his sense of guilt at having so easily duped them all.

I suspect there is an element of shock that his advice has had such a dramatic effect on some.

But, as a practising clinical psychologist, he would have seen more than his fair share of hopeless cases that no one can help. So it could be just a sense of relief that his life's work didn't amount to nothing.

What's more disturbing are the thousands of comments in his support.

As a clinical psychologist, Peterson should know he's likely suffering from a psychotic episode.

And yet, he has a legion of disciples who are elevating him to prophet status, if not a messiah.

there's a few on here who do that just because he uses big words. Grin

No chance you then ey? Grin

he wouldn't even make it to the level of dog walker in my book, let alone prophet Roll Eyes

I honestly could not listen to more than about 5 or so minutes so I might be at a loss to anything he said later but my impression was that,filter rambling, he's unhappy the schism between left and right has grown to a chasm and the impact it is having on society. I understand the anxiety over this as it's a society turning on it's self. He sees it for what it is and it disturbs him, he's been a victim of it.

he's a CAUSE of it

I find it's his detractors that think anyone who listens to him sees him as a messiah.

Most people think he's an interesting guy with some great points, some not so great.
People who hate him put up a 90 second clips to prove their point when you need to listen to 30mins or so, but that requires an attention span.

I've listened to several of his interviews over the years. He's a charlatan. A very clever one but a charlatan nonetheless.

And whilst you might not see him as the messiah, he has many fans who do.

So that's a fail from you on both points.

Not that anyone is really surprised Roll Eyes

He is a professor of psychology. Definitely not a 'charlatan'.

And importantly, he is not saying anything new. As an educator, he is saying things that young people no longer hear from their other, tendentious, progressive, woke uni professors - he goes back to the source and listens to and explains the greats.

That is his sin - talking about the foundational ideas and books and ideas. THAT is why he has fans.

He leads young people to water and trey drink and are energised. Not by what Peterson says but by what he leads them to. That is the only point of everything he says and does as an educator - primary sources.
Idiotic Sicilians and Ukrainians are led to water but you can't make them think - so they just sneer.

Hard to say.

By his own admission, since his teen years, Peterson has been haunted by nightmares of impending doom. He cries at the drop of a hat during a conversation particularly when discussing how it feels when he's attacked online or when people thank him for changing their lives for the better.

Is he weeping for the world or just emotionally unstable?... He obliquely conceded the latter when he discussed how he was once thinking about a political career but didn't think in retrospect he would have been emotionally robust enough for it.

I honestly couldn't say. I've not followed him or his life, etc. I've watched a few videos that have been posted. I was just commenting on what I felt the first part of the OP video was trying to say. He certainly need to learn a bit of conciseness.

Yeah... But, on his way to taking a dump, Peterson would teach the mutt to self-actualise... And clean his own kennel.
