So basically, taking the #RedPill in 2018 just means that you are a neo-traditionalist reactionary with some fancy Jungian gloss?

I definitely think that the fascist/nazi references are way out of line. But not a reactionary, with his incessant talk of 'cultural marxism'? Please.

it depends on what you mean by reactionary. I agree that is reacting against a trend in the academic left. I usually use the word reactionary to refer to someone supporting a program to, for example, restore monarchical rule or some kind of similar retrograde.

Sure, definitions are important. I am arguing the former kind. But he is doing it in a completely straw-man and hysterical way, which can be dangerous. See this article, for example:https://www.viewpointmag.com/2018/01/23/postmodernism-not-take-place-jordan-petersons-12-rules-life/ …

yes, it's a character flaw of his. he's high-strung and argumentative. I wouldn't call it a strawman precisely but more of a loss of precision due to constraints on communication. He would be better served with more precise speech on that topic.

I think that is an understatement, but sure
