All I needed to do was remember my dad telling me, "make your bed, go to college and don't expect any handouts from me, young hooligan!" and I'd already read "12 steps for being awesomeness" or whatever it's called.

As a gay male, I'm exquisitely tuned to the dog-whistles of the right. The world "values" gets my juices flowing, and not in a good way. Combined with "family" and you get "it's all the fault of the fags."

Jordan Peterson is a classic middle-aged white male homophobe, hangin' out with the boys in order to "mentor" them and claiming the left has put society in a handbasket and is skipping off to hell. It would be merely sad if it weren't so insidious.

And what makes you think the psychology classes of a man so lacking in self-awareness would be any better than his public appearances? He makes me long for cancel culture to exist.
