It's a short segment, but at least he didn't try to talk his way out of it and admitted to being wrong. Always interesting to see a different dynamic of interview, top comedians are amongst some of the more intelligent people in the public eye and their podcasts interviews etc can actually be far more enlightening than a sycophantic journalist terrified of upsetting their editor

You realise that was in an exchange with someone about trans people and him possibly being trans phobic right?

In fact he got into it with two people over it.

Here is an article about his Aspen visit

Yes. I watched the Aspen video w/ Bari Weiss, and was so delighted when he said that I typed it out and posted it. If you want to keep trying to make a transphobe out of him, good luck with that I suppose. Those who want to believe that will believe you for what that's worth.

Firstly i never called him that. if you read what i typed you will see i said he was in a discussion with someone about his views of possibly being one. Not my opinion nor my views.

Secondly I could care less about Jordan Peterson nor anything he does. I really don't give him much time at all and to be honest i just like reading this thread because its funny to see people fawn over him like groupie teen girls, talking about him like hes the messiah or their favorite band.

It just seems you posted something like an excitable teen without context. I saw some of it and read some articles purely as a remote colleague of mine was at the event in Aspen. He is a fan of his.
 
He not a transphobe. He's just an idiot who uses big words and fairly superficial references to psychology, evolution, and biblical lore to entrance those who are easily transfixed. He is Tony Robbins + Thesaurus + Wikipedia references. I'm continually baffled by those who are suckered into his word-salad tweets as well as his laborious 3-hour lectures that ultimately can be reduced to about 8-12 common-sense platitudes.

But by all means, please keep sending him your Patreon $$$.
 
To be honest I liked his first album, the new stuff is all a bit Ravi Shankar meets Westlife on mushies, never be as good as when he opened for Charlton Farlton at the NRA gig.

He's not immune to gotchas, my man Joe Rogan caught him out between 1:35 - 1:40 (that's hours:minutes) and then 1:55 - 2:00. Basically Peterson doesn't like Equality of Outcome except when it comes to pulling girls.

I still enjoy listening to the Prof, just that he's not always on-point.

Hope you're fine, Prev! Enjoy the rally :cheers:
