      They’re a Jordan Peterson mod, don’t bother. The ultimate Idiot’s Genius. Imagine thinking the only reason to be concerned for the plight of others must be for selfish reasons. It says more about them than you. And it’s a deflection away from coming up with actually sound counterpoints. Mindless contrarianism.

        It’s sad but I totally agree with you. Used to love JBP. Watched his old biblical lecture series, read 12 rules for life, followed his podcast. Definitely after his health issues I feel like there’s been a drop in his faculties and it’s hard to really back him like I used to.

        Then to see his new Exodus series, which I was excited about, and for him to have fucking Dennis Prager as a host on it… What a fucking joke. If he will so readily and warmly welcome Prager on his platform I have no interest in it.

        To be clear, I’m an atheist. I didn’t watch any of his content expecting spiritual enrichment or whatever.
