Peterson's philosophy is making immense positive changes in the lives of many young men, of varying ethnicities, mind you, and although there is reason to object to and strongly criticize his political thinking, his influence in young men's lives is way more good than bad.

I agree. He’s right on many important things and what he’s wrong about doesn’t worry me.

Gulp! Why should I be worried? Yes, his biblical nonsense and retro stuff are silly but I don’t see a big danger there.

I will tag you into some of my conversations next time. They invariably start by saying Peterson does support objective truth and science and end with saying OK, he doesn't but actually narrative wisdom is worth more. Except I intend not to have any more of them

Ah right! Having not been is such convos, I missed the second part where narrative trumps objective truth. You know what I think about *that*.

I don't see how either tear something down to state that there is no objective truth...

You don't? Truth does not need to be objectively true. It can also be narrative wisdom. Therefore the objectivity of truth is denied. See also the conversation with Sam Harris in which he said this:pic.twitter.com/zddxguxpS4

I agree, but the point of postmodernism is that there are no truths, not that there are some truths to show us some path of where to go. So with postmodernism, you are 'free' to take any path you want. Even if it eventually hurts you.

That was Peterson, not postmodernism.
