    Going to rehab IS a way to pick yourself back up. It's recognising the problem and taking responsibility. I don't always agree with him, but he's been under a lot of stress recently. It does not deligitim8se his book, nor his teachings. I have a lot of respect for the guy. Doesn't mean I agree with everything, but his content has helped me a lot.

    I won't go out of my way to kick him, but I have no sympathy for a grifter hack who promotes bigotry, sexism, misinformation and anti science.

    a grifter hack who promotes bigotry, sexism, misinformation and anti science

    When has he ever done that? He always justifies his views and backs his claims. Care to provide some specific examples?

      Peterson has said much I agree with, and he’s touched on things I disagree with too. One thing that I do appreciate is that he’s a very complex thinker and isn’t afraid to speak his mind regardless of the popularity of his viewpoint or how well it’s going to be received. His biggest asset in this department is his ability to effectively reason out loud and convey his ideas in such a way where people can, in many cases, see where he is coming from.

      Have you ever criticized a leftist for spreading bad ideas?

        That's a very long text, would you mind mentioning some of his ideas that you consider as "bad"?
