To be fair I only know two people in my circle who (at least admit to) drink the Jordan Peterson kool-aid. And yes, they're both angry manchilds who still live with their parents and do basically nothing with their lives. It's really unfortunate too, they used to be normal cool people until after college. Small sample size cause I'd rather not spend my time with people like that, but the ones I see online fit the mold as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Probably good for them then to listen to someone who tells them to get their shit together and adopt responsibility. Seems like at least they're looking for ways to get out of their situation.

dakur 460 Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Is this guy still relevant? I thought the hype was dead two months ago. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The guy says relatively little for how much he babbles on. Edited February 20, 2019 by Casual Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Their anger issues, he wants incels to listen and figure their shit out and give their lives meaning. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Incels that admit to liking this guy are basically crying out for help. As far as I can tell he's nothing but a positive force for people like that Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You can clearly tell that internet traffic is slowing down for this guy. Hell, you can tell that Sam Harris is not really relevant since halfway through 2018. That's what I love about alt-right'ers.........they don't have patience with their gimmicks. They move on to the next thing if they notice its not working. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Vini 430 Posted February 20, 2019 Author Share Posted February 20, 2019 Sam Harris was popularized by new atheists, not alt righters Peterson is vocally against the alt right or any type of political extremism Get your facts straight Quote Link to post Share on other sites
