No, it's not. Stoicism has much more depth and the Stoics would not agree with Peterson on many things. Stoicism also doesn't need to be updated.
- Balgair 8y agoI mean, his 12 points are pretty stock Stoicism, with a 21st century spin. By my reading, he's not entirely stoicism, true, but he sits in the adjacent seat. If he is this popular with (as I see it) his re-skinned stoicism, then the conclusion that 'stoicism needed an update' is not unreasonable, as it seems to resonate better with the re-skin than without. Caveats, obviously, apply.
- phaus 8y agoI think its unreasonable. Popularity and quality are often at odds with one another. Adam Sandler has earned people more money from movies than almost anyone. That doesn't mean Anthony Hopkins needed an update.
