"There are plenty of reasons for individual readers to dislike Jordan Peterson. . . . There are many legitimate reasons to disagree with him on a number of subjects, and many people of good will do. But there is no coherent reason for the left's obliterating and irrational hatred of Jordan Peterson. What, then, accounts for it?
It is because the left, while it currently seems ascendant in our houses of culture and art, has in fact entered its decadent late phase, and it is deeply vulnerable. The left is afraid not of Peterson, but of the ideas he promotes, which are completely inconsistent with identity politics of any kind."

I do not understand why anyone would dislike Jordan Peterson, his suggestions and advice are so spot on.
I know. He is common sense and wisdom personified. The only reason for dislike is fear, and the quote explains the 'why'. Thanks for leaving a comment, Tom!
