(Post Debate) Sam Harris VS Jordan Peterson | Sam Harris Fan Review

The review is in - Peterson thinks he's, like, super-smart and, like, sophisticated but he can't answer a straight question and his book Maps of Meaning was, like, boring and stuff, and I couldn't follow because it was, like, too complicated and stuff, and yeah we all know there are archetypes but, like, so fuckin' what right?

Also Peterson moves his hands around a lot when he talks, which distracts you from being able to understand what he's saying - 10:10.

I watched that 2 hour conversation Jordanson had with Sarris earlier. The video posted on this site misrepresented it IMO. I ended up agreeing more with Sarris' reasoning although there was a huge disconnect for which both share blame. Jordanson seemed to want to claim that 'wisdom' is 'truth' in order to add a subjective element. I really did not agree with his definition. Neither man was able to get across the principle that truth is external to the human experience.

TLDR; this is a pissing contest.
