I definitely agree and I make it a point to not discuss these things with colleagues. The problem is he brought it up out of nowhere to all of us right before a presentation. He just felt the need to get it out there - uninvited.

Yes. We're barely out of the woods yet as a species - literally. All of these relatively peaceful societies and overarching absence of war are brand new concepts for us. We're still operating out of our primordial brains, fight or flight. Outrage, hysteria, and action before critical thought.

While that kept us safe throughout our evolution, it isn't necessary anymore given the world we now live in. It gets in our way now. The absence of critical thought when discussing important issues these days is just mind-numbing.

But evolution is slow. Maybe the tables will begin to tilt in the favor of critical thinking in a few thousand years. Then again, maybe not. Either way, I'll be long gone.

Leftist brains can't handle objection so their program defaults to throw out pop labels to try scare off anyone questioning their idiotic beliefs and attitude. When was the last time you heard the word racist being used properly? Exactly.

It's disgusting how educational institutions now are not even remotely impartial.

You should be happy that sheeple like that exist. If everybody had critical thinking skills, navigating Humanity would be like a Kafka-esque nightmare. Everybody would be like a boss fight. Idiots are there to be exploited

Yes. Colleges these days have become radical liberal indoctrination centers over and above institutes of higher learning. They're more interested in producing activists.

One of the tragic things is that, as you mentioned, the definition of racism becomes watered down over time and loses all of its meaning. These morons are directly negatively impacting the causes they claim to support. Toddler-adults with zero emotional regulation skills.

What I'm most annoyed at is how this one stuck. I try to brush it off because there isn't much I can do to cure idiocy, so I try and accept their ignorance and move on with my own life.

I mean I like Peterson, but those statements don't seem too far off

racist - no, he isn't
transphobic - I guess, if you accept transphobia is a thing he will fall somewhere in that statement
lunatic - well he certainely is a weirdo with all his Jungian rants

He's the blue pilled bard. Love some of his stuff but he's way too invested in Disney and the Bible to be taken seriously. His lectures on Jung, Nietzsche, Freud, Nazis, and Stalin are excellent though.

I'm really not into Peterson much. I've seen some of his videos and listened to a few interviews. What bothers me the most is the complete absence of critical thought and the immediate outrage. Hurling baseless accusations and basically regurgitating what you've heard without actually listening and making your own judgments.

His 12 rules for life lectures are okay, but I'd highly recommend his series of personality lectures. I think it was from 2015? He has tons of old material out from before his popularity took off.

I've been aware of his work for around a decade, particularly his personality research.

I don't envy his life at all. In order to make a mark you have to have particular idiosyncrasies. Even if I don't necessarily agree with everything they say, I do respect people that staunchly stick to their guns and don't waver from their beliefs. So, I do respect Peterson, and being in the spotlight like that and constantly have schmucks judging you critically must get really tedious.

so when you straight up asked "what exactly has he said that's racist?", what did the colleague in question say?

If the left really doesn’t want you to listen to someone you know it’s cause they’re speaking the truth.

Another small bit of info - this is a guy that has openly poked fun or mentioned my physique in the past. The type of skinny beta twink that will refer to anyone with a bit of muscle as 'big guy' or something like that.

Such convenient cognitive dissonance with these self-righteous twats.
