Jordan Peterson disciplinary action for alleged behaviour that violated his code of conduct as a psychologist.
  1. “Women, gays and blacks exist in a strata below white males because lobsters.”

I cannot understand how you folks who love to defend this cretin can overlook this utter malarkey and focus on ‘make your bed’.

Look at some of his old tweets. He’s racist and not as intelligent as he wants you to believe. It’s not complicated in this case.

Wait. He wants us to believe that he is intelligent? I’ve known toddlers that have an easier time getting words out.

I thought his whole shtick was portraying himself a bumbling idiot to bring out the hyperemotional crazies who get worked up about people not being just so? It is always fun watching the hyperemotional crazies.

Absolutely he wants to and a lot of people buy it.

For sure. A lot may even be an understatement for how many hyperemotional crazies have bought into his schtick.

How did you get that out of the book?

I believe the lobster bollocks is actually Rule # 1. ‘Stand up straight’ or some shit (which lobsters also do not do because, well, they are lobsters).

Have you read the book?

I have read the book yes, and the lobster stuff is in chapter 1 indeed.

I don’t think that chapter was particularly enlightening, as far as I remember it was mainly about how evolutionary selection results in hierarchies in al species (hence the lobsters), and standing up straight gets you higher in the hierarchy because of something something confidence.

The evolution stuff is not wrong, and the stand up straight is… Eh… weird psychology stuff? However it didn’t mention women or gays as you said.

And how do you understand “hierarchies” in the context of human sociology?

Your message is notable in that it’s the first time I have realised that his readers may not even be reading this drivel at the level at which it was written, which is already laughably stupid.

You got to expand a bit on your question, I don’t know what you want to hear.

Regarding hierarchy in the animal kingdom, it’s this: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dominance_hierarchy
