Exactly. I agree with almost nothing with
@jordanbpeterson BUT I think he should have the right to say it. A civil society needs civil debate from multiple view points to be able to progress. -
Same here.

I'm genuinely curious if you can point out three or so things he has said that you disagree with. I want to make sure to avoid pinning myself in an echo chamber and have a hard time finding things I disagree with his explanations of.

His peculiar position on what's real. I say peculiar, because even most Pragmatists weren't that radical. His position on the value of organized religion, whereas he skips all the negative bits. His overly-simplistic explanation for what had happened in the 20th century.

There's more. But the most fundamental disagreement I have with Peterson is his putting Metaphysics before Physics, which even in Philosophy is a big no-no. That's the Jungian part.

It’s my impression he values metaphysics in the Jungian view. Empirical knowledge is caught by the a priori structure of cognition. But I’m out of my depth there. I don’t know if that can be interpreted as metaphysics > physics.

I can’t help but draw parallels on Scott Adam’s book ‘Win Bigly’ saying that it’s more the norm for people to be ‘rational’ 10% of the time and to be ‘irrational’ for the other 90%. He argues humans are not designed to be ‘rational’ or empirical.
-
I don't know. I'm not a Psychologist. And even though I don't believe that people are as irrational as Peterson claims, I don't have issues with his morality claims. But when it comes to Physics, Economics, or even just History... it's evident that HE'S out of his depth.
