Peterson’s daughter said doctors in the West didn't have "the guts" to medically detox her father. But experts say that’s a misleading narrative.

I've been an avid follower of his, reading his book (12 rules for life) and such. I now see the dangers of a persuasive demagogue, since i really believed his every word. He convince you of his beliefs of the world very effectively, with all its inaccuracies to reality.

As to his fallacies; he uses and believes metaphors are analogous and sequential to the actual truth, and not just as a metaphor as such....

My eyes uncovered. Now i get the criticism of Peterson. (Serious)

Jordan Peterson and things Russian

Check this out. Jordan Peterson reportedly had drug problems -- dependant on bezodiazines due to family stress. JP reportedly went to Russia for emergency drug detox.
(His adult daughter Mikhaila is the only source.)

Another tidbit:

Peterson became fascinated with Soviet realist art and artifacts -- perhaps obsessed is a better term. Here's a link:

[www.newsweek.com]

He tells the interviewer this interest of his was 'comical'.

Years later, he went to Russia for his medical treatment.

(The narrative gets cloudy as JP reportedly showed up at a Russian -run clinic in Serbia. Note how he plays victim at end of interview.)

Serbia? Strange.

The Serbian Orthodox Church has as toxic a nationalist agenda and as the Patriarchate of Moscow does.

Jordan Peterson has received close scrutiny because he has refused to address the centuries long persistence of antisemitism in a multitude of empires, religious settings, cultures, and nation-statess. Despite claiming he has been obsessed with the Holocaust from a young age, Peterson attributes this to 'human nature' and or the 'disproportionate success' of the Jewish people - a dogwhistle that combines backhanded compliment with victim blaming in a diabolically concise and elegant choice of words.

Kanye has also signalled his admiration for Jordan Peterson, the controversial University of Toronto professor who is the hero of those who have dubbed themselves lobsters — Peterson fans who believe, as he does, that political correctness has spiralled out of control.....The problems arise due to the fact that white supremacists, including the Ku Klux Klan, have embraced Trump. At the same time, they’ve found a philosophy in Peterson’s work that’s compatible with Trump’s anti-fact bias.

It’s not that Peterson is against facts, it’s that he appeals to people who do not require them to form an idea — including, apparently, Kanye West, who recently suggested that slavery was a choice.

Peterson argues that we’re all captives in a post-modern world, one in which nothing has more meaning that anything else. The issue is that his adherents are not informed enough to compare his philosophies with competing ideas.
