What do you think of Jordan Peterson?

The short answer for me is that I disagree with a lot of his politics but find his psychological insights fascinating (and ahem... useful).

He is certainly extremely intelligent and completely obliterates Kathy Newman in her awful interview. I'm reading his book and its really interesting.

I did not know him, and really like his views, and the fact that he gives solid arguments. The interviewer, on the other side, is really obnoxious and irritant, just parroting cliches.

Our problem is that the western world has become so obsessed with equality that we have become afraid of differences, seeing them as a synonime, or at least a seed of unequality, where very often have to do with being complimentary rather than being superior or inferior.

@Cierzo There is lots of stuff by him on YouTube and his book is interesting.
