If I have seen further than most it is because I have stood on the shoulders of giants - Isaac Newton.

We are the straw men we are the hollow men this is the way the world ends not with a bang but with a whimper. T. S. Elliot.

“The burger joint around the bend where the meals thank Christ are skimpy. For you that’s how the world could end not with a bang but a Wimpy - John Cooper Clarke

Ideas evolve Cooper Clarke takes a line from an Elliot poem and transforms it into something else... something more contemporary. Something witty ... something that resonates with modern culture and times. It is not better it is just different.

Your world view is influenced by your education the books you read and your own social and economic situation. Since we are all different we all have different philosophies to live by.

It is very dogmatic to say everyone should believe the same way that you do or that you are right and Peterson or Kant or Keynes are wrong because your personal philosophy does not allow you to agree with them.

I expect that some of Peterson ideas are liberating for certain people and they find that personal responsibility and speaking the truth are quite revolutionary principles, yet you must also condemned them because they do not fit into your mould.

So for all the talk about equality and standing up for minorities you would dismiss and degrade anyone who does not fall into your camp.

I would call that prejudice... and being blinkered by your own ideas.

A listened to a recent debate and a black man Michael Dyson called Peterson a "mean white man" now the radical left would classify that as "hate speach"

Now if Peterson had called Dyson "a mean black man" all hell would have broken loose.

Just as a point of interest Peterson does not monetise his youtube videos so he gets no revenue from them even though he has over 2M SUBSCRIBERS and some of his videos have over 1M views. So let's say he is hitting a nerve somewhere.

In addition when the C16 debacle was taking place he opened up a Patreon account and he got support to the tune of 33,000 dollars a month. A tidy little sum, yet when Patreon began to show bias and terminate certain accounts because of the political views that were being expressed, Jordan viewed this as censorship and as an act of solidarity terminated his own Patreon account.

Not many people would have the ovaries to be so principled and give up on 33,000 a month.
