He’s very smart. I have incredibly frustrated disagreements with him (metaphorically that is, as I’ve never met him). He also has significant blind spots.

But I actually think he has valid insights into human nature. Even if I don’t take the same lessons from those insights into the political sphere as he does.

Mike, he’s so shitcoin, tho. Since you are saying he’s ā€œvery smart,ā€ i feel i want to investigate… is there a particular podcast episode you would recommend?

I am capable of acknowledging ghat people I strongly disagree with can be intelligent and knowledgeable, yes. I am not a defender of Peterson's politics. In fact, I'm highly critical of them.

yes. you are one of very few who makes acknowledgments where due despite disagreement. thanks for clarifying for me what you meant. i no longer feel the need to look into it further. thank goodness 🤣🤣🤣🤣🄲

I am always curious to hear well-articulated arguments from those who disagree with me. I think surrounding yourself with unchecked agreement, is a form of unconsciousness.

I’m always willing to learn if you have something to teach.

Pain, will you return it?

yeah, good practice. we do not want a world of zombies, which diverse discussion including disagreements helps prevent. maybe i’ll listen to a petersen pod later… 🫣🤭
