      the diagram is explained. you just admitted that you refuse to listen to the explanation. you desire to criticize a diagram out of its context. that's the definition of a straw man. make better criticisms.

      my claim is that Peterson's communication is muddled and unclear. That his diagram would require two hours of explanation is not inconsistent with that

      funny, I'm reading a book on quantum mechanics and it takes them a page at most

      after you've acquired several years worth of math and physics as background, sure. You don't think, maybe, you're looking at something you don't have requisite background in?

      last time I studied physics was 10 years ago, whereas I deal with philosophical stuff every day. Therefore I'm much less confident in understanding quantum physicists than I am philsophy

      let's just cut to the end. you've got a political dispute with Peterson which is why you want to criticize him. you don't care much about the academic subject matter, do you? don't suppose you've spent a lot of energy criticizing any other psychologists.

      and that's fine. I disagree with a lot of his political stances too. why not critique those directly though?

      it's a strange way to have a discourse, ya know? Speaker: "I advocate Policy A to address rising anomie and economic problems in society" Critic: "your work on the migratory patterns of sea-birds in Chile is second rate!"

      I'm not talking about his academic work though, am I? I'm talking about his weird self-help stuff, which is why he's famous. I've shown you explicit quotes which somehow are irrelevant because I haven't spent hours trawling through his work

      yes, of limited relevance because shallow understanding of complicated subject matter does not produce highly relevant criticisms. repeating myself: make better criticisms. practice steel-manning. practice charitable interpretation. engage with material before dismissing it.

          we're all heavily time constrained so I don't expect everyone to want to or be able to do this. that's totally fine. criticize something else in that case. there's lots of easy political bad-takes to criticize.

          yes and a lot of them come from Peterson, including the takes that explicitly prompted the thread I linked to in the OP

          absolutely. he is a shit-take factory. it's a target rich environment and it would be more profitable to pick out the shit-takes as worthy of criticizing. but dismissing psychological explanations of mythical symbology without understanding the context? come on.
