I’ve been of the opinion for some time that university/college academia is a lost cause, selling Cultural Marxist groupthink rather than unadulterated education. I’m sure that many of you feel the same way. Thankfully there are a few voices of reason – insurgents from within campuses littered with safe spaces, fake hate crime hoaxes, and reports of micro-aggressions in plague proportions.
One of these voices of reason is clinical psychologist and tenured professor of psychology at the University of Toronto Jordan Peterson. His deconstruction of the myth of benevolent communism alone is fascinating, not to mention his take on all the other hot-button Cultural Marxist topics.
The best introduction to Professor Peterson can be found here:
His candid conversation with Joe Rogan makes for essential summer viewing not only for XYZ readers, but for undecided friends and family who are still on the fence regarding the Culture War. It’s fascinating and rare to see someone (and a professor, no less) taking an unbiased analytical look at these issues exactly as should be done.
Peterson makes observations like: “If gender is merely a social construct, why are they undergoing hormone therapy?”. Boom.
The academic challenges and debunks a wide array of leftist doctrine in the time he spends with Joe Rogan, and it’s difficult to find fault with any of it. The episode can be viewed on You Tube, or downloaded free on iTunes.
