  • Is Jordan Peterson racist? what do black people think of him?

    A good friend of mine who happens to be black the other day started talking about Jordan Peterson, he seems to think he is racist and that Petersons message wont work for everyone.

    I kind of held a neutral line on Peterson with him, didnt want to say that i have listened to much of his stuff, but I generally think Petersons message is quite positive, but my friend has a real negative view of him.

    My question is, do you like Jordan Petersons work? Do you think he is racist?

    What do you think of him if you are black?

    Is there any evidence of him saying racist stuff that you can link to? I cant see it.

      We really shouldnt just brand people "racist" or not. Things are too complex.

      I dont know what Peterson says that could be racist. But his ideas are worth listening to. Even if you disagree.

        I'm as black as Lomachenko, but Imma tell you Peterson isn't racist at all. Why you didn't include any of his quotes that may have a racist note? It's not fair because the way you asked the question without giving us any of his quotes, boxingscene members who never heard of him before will connect the word racist with his name, so when they hear anything about him in the future they may think "oh it's that racist guy I read about".

          Totally agree. I never heard anything racist from him.

            Not necessarily, although he is used by the far right to further their agenda. Not his fault, though he cashes their checks so theres that. I actually view him as a bit of a sophist as you have to have a PHD in some he explores topics to realise he's full of sht, which is quite dangerous. He's taken over from the PUA leaders in some respect.

              can someone embed the below pls, it's comedy central but you can see how his work feeds into the alt rights rhetoric.

                I have never heard anything racist from him. His fight is mostly against the LGBTQRSTUVWXYZ community....... He is adamant about not calling them anything other than "he" or "she". He was a professor of Ryerson University in Toronto and quit his job due to harassment from said group to become an activist.

                  Racist? No. Psychopath? Perhaps.

                    He's not even conservative. He's fond of Canadian socialism (just not of its current government).

                    If it were 2005 Peterson would be considered far-left, but since the antifa/communism/lgbt cult exploded, they just call anyone who disagrees with them on anything far-right, which has made the terms utterly meaningless.

                    I think he will "become" racist over time via the manipulation of select soundbites & laziness of the public.

                    Alinsky language tactics. The way Steve Bannon
                    "became" a white supremacist out of nowhere on every TV station within a span of hours. You just change the definition of white supremacist to fit the target, assume 90% of the audience has never heard of them before, and you've destroyed them.
