>he writes self help jargon and he’s also mentally weak

Man who would of guessed

Literally everyone who talks shit about "nazis" is like that.
National socialism is still not healthy compared to other, pre-modern societal models, but it's the healthiest model that is still applicable today, both physically and psychically.
Everyone who opposes it and related ideologies, and I mean literally everyone, has some deep weaknesses and malfunctions insides that eventually come up to cases such a Peterson's or other diseases
The only exception are people that, mostly ignorant and uncaring about politics, instinctively have national socialist principles, but don't call them that because they didn't know they are.
Try to find a single (1) exception about this

Peterson has sympathy for people who are in dark places in life, why can't you do the same?

this
National Socialism is the radical idea of loving oneself and one's nation, and too seek the betterment of both.
A rejection of these ideals is toxic, spiritually and physically.

Hitler and every high level nazi was an amphetamine-riddled junkie, fuck off

having a life partner is not a crutch

>>13857700
You just fell for another hoax. Hitler's Jewish doctor poisoned him by prescribing him all sorts of malarkey.

>>13857573
people have given literally millions of shekel to this hysterical illiterate drug addict.

>Addicted to clonazepam
Literally Xanax-light
It’s like being addicted to 3.2% alcohol beer

>>turning to drugs when your wife can't be a crutch anymore

Wait, what?

>be jordan peterson
>go to group therapy
>young boy sitting across from him
>s-so I thought I would start with saying what has made me cope better with addiction and understand what I have to do in order to overcome it
>it's actually this book i found a few weeks ago in the 'self help quackery/bullshit' section.
>it's called '12 Rules for life' by one Jordan Peterson
>i can already feel the effect it's having on me; can't get to get better so i can find who the author is, hopefully i can meet him some day
>jordan stares in the distance

I didn't get why Peterson is so hated on 4chan when it has the demographic that would benefit the most from following his advice but then I realized that's precisely why people here hate him

>>13857821
It's a big part of it, funny thing is, he needs to be her crutch now, why is he acting weak then? Idk it sounds like behind all the reasonig is someone weak, if cancer hits you or your loved ones you need BALLS and be a crutch that's it, set aside your "wisdom" and "knowledge" and do what you are supposed to do, and don't fall apart obviously, same thing with DFW just big brain but zero balls, zero guts.
>muh chemical imbalance
Probably there's a genetic factor with these people, even if this is the case my point still stands

>>13857899
/lit/ isn't Peterson's demographic.

>>13857864
So clonazapam is weaker than xanax?
I feel more man now

>>13857573
this website is truly a cesspool of psueds

>>13857899
projecting there, bucko?

>>13857922
I was talking about 4chan in general. Especially /r9k/, that place is literally the demographic his advice would apply the most and they absolutely despise him.

>>13857899
He is a decent man who is trying to help people. Of course he is going to make the mentally ill leftists and poltards seethe. They are insufferable.

>>13857925
Yes, it’s still an addictive drug and you’ll form a dependence on it but it’s not as powerful as Xanax. As far as I know. I’m not a pharmacologist though. Maybe they just prescribe it in lower doses

>>13857573
>is there truly anything more pathetic, especially coming from a self-help author?
You mean truly anything more unsurprising. No one is perfect, and some Anglo self-help Christlarping professor in the 21st century is one of the farthest away from perfection you can find.

>>13857899
I don’t hate him. I think he’s a genuinely good and thoughtful person who has plenty of valuable things to say. He has never once claimed that his ideas are original or that he came up with them. He just conveys things to people in an easier to understand way. “He’s just rehashing old ideas” is not a valid criticism in my opinion.
I guarantee he has changed plenty of peoples lives.

>>13857936
That's because /r9k/ is a tranny psyop and doesn't like to be told to clean their rooms.

>>13857899
I don't hate Pererson--he's merely another pseudo-intellectual, God knows we've got enough of them. I do, however, despise his approach to subjects like National Socialism and Marxism, not to speak of his constant consultation of Jung: every nut-job's go-to psychologist.
Peterson's gravest offense however, is his misunderstanding of Nietzsche, and how he passes on his views of as fact.

His fans are even worse, as there's no way to convince them that they're being lied to and manipulated; Peterson is essentially the modern day Jim Jones.

>>13857573
He has never hidden his depression or his use of anti-depressants. I don't think he's ever claimed that cleaning your room or learning social skills will cure depression or mental illness. His primary audience has been borderline incel guys that need to organize their lives and fold into society rather than purely anti-social far right guys.

All these pathetic defenders of a fraud. Peterson came to public light based on a lie, sustained himself by repackaging the old "cultural Marxist" trope, and told people, "aw shucks, to deal with the problems inherent to liberal individualistic capitalism you just need liberal individualistic capitalism".

Zizek and countless others have took down every leg upholding Peterslam, and yet there's dolts here that still claim to see the light.

I judge a man by his actions not his words so no i dont want live advice from someone who's mentally ill and gets fucked up on stupid medication.

>>using your wife as an emotional crutch
Literally the whole point of an SO, incel
>>turning to drugs when your wife can't be a crutch anymore
Anyone can fall prey to addiction. It doesn't negate everything else they have done.

>>13857846
>Jewish doctor
Ah yes, the one Jew who somehow managed to evade detection.
You neo-nazis are so transparently disingenuous with your bald faced lies

>>13857899
It's the internet hate machine. Paradoxically it only loves hate.

>>13857899
His solutions work for a very particular type of person. A psychopath, say.

>>13857579

>>13857899
Peterson is just the secular version of a Sunday school teacher or a youth pastor. Are his suggestions for life wrong? No, they're all entirely correct. It's just that all this should be obvious. A grown man doesn't need to be told to make his bed or make something of himself, he just does it. Peterson basically targets individuals operating on a teenage level. For teenagers it's great, but there are lots of manchildren nowadays who are mental teenagers well into their twenties and beyond, and it's this sad audience that taints Peterson's image.

LMFAO
This is great. He ought to suffer. Fuck that psued. I suffered with the EXACT same withdrawal syndrome, so I know how much he is suffering. Had seizures and hallucinations, nearly died from this. Now it's his turn.

>>13858134
neo nazis are hollywoods children, im simply a national socialist.

That said what about eduard bloch you fucking retard?

He was hitlers jewish family doctor who attempted to save his mother klara from breast cancer, she died on the table, years later hitler contacted bloch in 42 if i recall and offered him and his family a private ticket out of germany to anywhere as a gift and thanks for trying to save his mother.

Go on look it up, so now what for your hollywood version of Adolf?

>>13858011
>that pic
I mean... he's not wrong

>>13858011
I never defended Peterson, you utter retard. Read my post, which is the first one you replied to.

>>13858391
Oh yes, that instance where the exception proved the rule. Good point.

>>13857596

I don't want to address this but I'll say this once, I didnt know who this Jordan Peterson was but by referencing tweets I immediately knew that this was some incel meme exactly when a friend of mine mentioned foucault as I initially thought of Larochefoucald instead, as Foucault is overrated outside of circles, so I'm posting this message to say that he is overrated and a pseud, having watched the beginning of his debate with Zizek

>>13858885
Based out of the loop/sleeping under a rock poster.

So the entire saga of Peterson is eventually going to make for a fascinating book, isn't it? His rise, his prime, his fall, it's worthy of a novel.

>>13857579
Yep

>>13857579
boom shakalaka

>>13857590
>Man who would of guessed

it's would HAVE guessed. WOULD'VE is the abbreviation not would of. jesus how stupid are you?

>>13857899
Peterson is an opportunist.

I have nothing wrong with his writings or lectures, but the way he jumped on the 'culture war' bandwagon was cheap and scummy. I don't believe for a second he genuinely felt his free speech was threatened by Bill C-16. It was playing the victim.

>>13857579
based first poster how does s/he do it

>>13857899
He a damn anglo-saxon liberal, that's why. He's not religious, he not well read, he's not radical and doesn't understand politics. Also he wrote one actual book that is just Jung-lite. Very pathetic actually. Dumb anglos are never true reactionaries.

>>13858011
I'm natsoc and even if you are a commie you're still right about this jewish cock sucker.
