Aspergers or something similar. Watch the Jordan Peterson interview. He's not well-spoken and he's not even that passionate. It's a joke the mainstream media is calling his memo a "manifesto" when it was just his attempt to analyze gender and diversity in his own socially awkward way. This really is about outrage culture.
- losteverything 9y agoWho is Jordan Peterson and whom did he interview?

- jshevek 9y agoJordan Peterson is great. He's a thoughtful, honest person who is delightfully transparent in his efforts to make sense of the universe. He publicly spoke up in support of free speech, and therefore become a target to be intimidated and harassed by - well, the usual suspects. When he refused to back down, he became a minor celebrity among those who value free speech and who are concerned by the recent rise of totalitarian ideology on the left.
- lanterk 9y agoExcept he blatantly misconstrued what Bill C-16 was.
- confounded 9y agoWhich totalitarian ideology is on the rise, on the left?
- mywittyname 9y agoHe definitely has that arrogance and entitlement complex that some Really Smart developers tend to have. I kind of got this impression from his email, especially when he postulates that competitiveness and self-reliance are traits of excellent developers while being collaborative and people-oriented are traits that bad developers have. Once I saw him in this video, it became pretty clear that he's one of those entitled developers that you really don't want to be stuck on a team with.
