I've finally gotten around to watching some Jordan Peterson, after seeing someone calling for his 'followers' to be shot. This is an eloquent, rational man, and I've seen a lot of strong evidence that his detractors are a bunch of murderous loons.
of course he's speaking normatively, this is the arrangement he's arguing for going "back" to (i say "back" because "the state that has existed throughout much of human history" is always fictional) because he's a trad and that's what trads are into

well the thing is there's a lot of different types of trads. I think he's basically a trad in a lot of his views, but as I said, at one point being a trad would have meant you were against free speech (at least for the masses). So I have to look into what kind of trad he is.
-
the kind of trad who's into free speech is the kind of trad who's losing
-
I agree he's not the type of trad who's winning, and they're not into free speech, yes.

In most of the stuff I've seen him saying so far he's been perfectly rational and reasonable, but I've not seen him commenting on the 'lonely men get violent' idea yet.

Well that would be jumping ahead a bit, wouldn't it? I'm going though videos now, after that I'll maybe get onto his twitter feed. Then maybe I'll buy his book or something. But I expect something to come up in the videos covering this issue.
