A great intellectual exposing the radical left

likeupliftingfunny

Faux intellectual too lazy to critically engage in the issues of today, but because he presents a comforting image reflecting default social assumptions about the world he gets far more kudos than he deserves from other people who are tired of being called out

The well runs pretty deep with him, pulls from lots of history, theology, myth, psychology, and has a lot to say about human nature. I think his call to responsibility (over rights) is right on, and I can see why his message resonates with young men (who tend to be rather lost). He rightly says that you can't throw out religion without losing the morality (and system of meaning) that it underpins. I think that much of that he has to say really needs to be taken seriously.

However, I think he takes himself a little too seriously... He is too far up his own ass lately. And he hasn't done enough to squelch the ugliness of some of the right-wing dudebros who claim to be his followers.

On the whole, though, I have really enjoyed going down the YouTube rabbit hole with him.

Currently reading his book 12 Rules for Life, almost done. Great book. Especially love the chapters about children and pursuing what’s meaningful. He is promoting values such becoming a responsible adult who is able to handle life’s inevitable challenges. Not a popular view this days, especially among snowflakes :)

I think he’s a smart guy saying some things that need to be said, but sometimes goes a bit too far with this anti-left crusade. The book’s pretty good, but his performance in the recent Munk debate was abysmally unendearing and he came off a little butthurt. He needs to learn how to take himself less seriously.

like

His slide building skills are below par. No attention to details. I gave him a 4 on my project

like

Yes I saw the munk debate, Stephen fry was awesome

Relatable smart guy. He is very consistent in his arguments across multiple subjects. Even if I disagree with him I can understand his logic and how he arrived at his belief. His first interview with Sam Harris was horrendous but fault for that
lies as much with Sam as with Jordan.

So you're saying...
