The article really tries hard to paint Jordan Peterson (JP) as a controversial figure who espouses fringe messages. The article uses adjectives like "controversial" and "polarizing" to describe JP. His public presence is "notoriety". His followers are said to be "something akin to a cult following". He "appears on TV, including on Fox & Friends, President Trump’s preferred morning show". WoW so edgy.
But is JP really the one who is controversial and polarizing?
- JP is against the Pomo stuff that passes for scholarship now a days. https://twitter.com/realpeerreview?lang=en https://twitter.com/realpeerreview?lang=en
- We have professors university calling for violence against his political opponents.

- We had a Antifa professor who nearly killed a guy hitting someone with a heavy bike lock. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9qKCl9NL1Cg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9qKCl9NL1Cg (WARNING: GRAPHIC)
Is JP really the one who is polarizing and extreme here? The left academic really dropped the ball not pointing out their own dirty laundry and cleaning out their own cesspool of fake academics and violent thugs.
- superquest 9y agoI think the article was pretty fair. He is controversial and polarizing: many people hate him and many people love him. https://www.reddit.com/r/JordanPeterson/ https://www.reddit.com/r/JordanPeterson/ and https://www.reddit.com/r/Jordan_Peterson_Memes/ https://www.reddit.com/r/Jordan_Peterson_Memes/ are kind of cultish. It's a very ironic cult, but a bit of a cult nonetheless.
