if he'd just focused on helping young men without all the transphobia, misogyny, and Christian nationalism. It's obvious that there are unique problems men are facing, so why didn't JP just channel his energy and rhetoric into that alone, without blaming other marginalized groups and being a shitbag?

I mean, I guess he wouldn't have gotten rich and famous if he'd done that.

I mean you could technically say that about anyone. he initially became famous for transphobic fear-mongering, then he used that fame to sell a dumb self-help book

If he dropped all of his terrible qualities, he'd lose most of his audience.

That's funny cause I was thinking exactly this after that video of him getting emotional after being called the king of incels. Jordan Peterson could have been remembered as the guy who listened to and supported struggling depressed, lonely, and suicidal men when nobody else would. But we all know him for his crazy ideas and hating marginalized people.

...why?

Anyway, according to reviews of his college courses, he was more elocution than substance. There are plenty of psychologists who can really help people to grow and teach their goals, he just happened to have an audience.

People don't realize that his work as an academic psychologist is probably some of the most banal shit you'd ever read.

Like, I imagine the reason he delved into pop psych/evopsych shit is because it's more fun to bullshit the general public than to talk about personality factors correlate to 0.01% of the variance in life events.

I don't know, I have one guess but I don't think it's necessarily right. He is presenting a conservative worldview and there has to be something to be scared of at an emotional appeal level.
