Good idea mr Peterson. Will do so.
Balance your checkbook
Can you go in depth? Seems like Peterson was doing fine in the podcast. Harris was unable to process a mode of thought that he wasn't familiar with.
so, I just spent $1k in btc, after many years of knowing btc but never having more than a few dollars (I do have some other shitcoins, EBET and BMC, which I bought at some random ICO)
can anyone suggest some good coins to buy right now? what about, say, LTC? people say it's cheap currently, is that true? ETH seems expensive to me, though I barely have an idea of what I'm doing...
This dude is an absolute egomaniac with the knowledge of authoritarian systems(and he does use this knowledge very well btw).
He is also an idiot.
Can't stand him and his armchair psychology.
I understand that his talks helped some people but his views are on the spectrum common sense-totally ridiculous mambo jambo, not science based.
But he knows how to talk and he knows how to build a following.
Could you share a link?
Usually his interviews sound to me like an idiot discussing shit with another idiot.
No you are right. They are experiencing confirmation bias. Peterson triggered Harris into cognitive dissonance. I think Scott Adams did a blog about it.
How can you call him an armchair psychologist when he has many peer reviewed papers and a clinical practice? That is mere foolishness.
Clinical practice.
Yeah, he does. Based on Jung and other early philosophers.
That kind of therapy is nice and all but works as well as humanistic psychology...which is to say it doesn't.
He is not a clinical psychologist, not entirely. He spent 35 years doing social psychology/ historical research, and I bet that his work in this discipline is good(although, I have to admit I haven't read it)
But I did read his "therapy" guidelines and it is a joke.
Just in case you ever need a clinical psychologist to talk to please choose one that knows cognitive behavioral therapy. Not only this shit works, it works fast and is research based. Jung, Freud, Maslov...they were very smart people and contributed greatly to the field but unfortunately their results....suck.
I digress though.
What Peterson is doing is giving you(if you are a fan, follower or a listener) a good advice, most of the times. That's it.
I'm happy that he is helping people, really am. But actually these people are helping themselves and the guy is an idiot.
When a psychologist/scientist speaks they usually cite people that they base their theories on. They will show and discuss research. What Peterson does is " I'm DOCTOR Peterson, I just know this"
And it works on people who don't know psychology.
Cause saying that " women are unhappy when they settle for a beta male" and then saying: I'm a clinical psychologist so I can say that....it's ar best arrogance and at worst lack of knowledge and stupidity.
A normal scientist would cite examples and research and clarify that the generalization comes from being a social psychologist.....clinicists don't deal with huge groups and don't do huge studies. Psychologists do specialize, you know?
Its hard to take this dude seriously with that winey voice
Yeah because theres been heaps of studies done on that...
I think hes allowed an opinion on some things that are within his domain, she asked him why he has the right to that opinion or something along those lines. she of course has the right to not believe but to say he has no right to imply that is absurd
his pre-2017 lectures are fine
everything after he started his 50k $ (probably up to over 100k) patreon is cancer
