I would like to hear what strikes people as so controversial about Peterson? He and Satoshi are poor examples for article. But besides that I cannot understand how he is controversial when he appears to say not very much, though something part of the population in parts wants and needs to hear. I just don't understand why interviewers take shots at him or why YouTubers make obnoxious video clips from his videos.
He argued against women having the right to be addressed by a gender inclusive pronoun in the 80s fell off the map and is now doing the same thing with minority and trans-people. Currently he is touted as a champion of freespeech while he is actively sueing a public university for defamation (millions).
His followers have absorbed some pretty terrible ideas from him. This was a comment about the recent decriminalization of homosexuality in India: https://i.imgur.com/W80VytS.png
Doesn’t defamation specifically require false statements represented at truths? I’m not sure free speech is meant to allow for that as well (negative truths, represented as truths, are fine though)
