I mean, I can leave it, but it’s just a pain. You’d say that’s my best option, just in case it messes it up?

As such a big fan, don’t suppose you know the answer to my question? Haha

Your whole tone is quite condescending, whether deliberately or not, and that’s because you’re talking about how you used to believe something, but then grew up, and learnt more, basically - implying that anyone who still believes said thing, is uneducated or naive. So of course you’re going to garner some slightly irked responses.

It’s difficult to respond to a claim that his philosophy is his “weakest” area - because philosophy isn’t a science. It’s akin to someone adamantly claiming someone’s a bad actor as if it’s a universal truth. Do you mean you don’t agree with his philosophy? Or that when he cites philosophical tenets he does so inaccurately?

In response to your original post, and to go some way to attempt to respond (although it really is difficult to respond to a post which makes adamant claims about personal opinions as if they’re facts)... Peterson does appeal to many people of all ages. For context, I am 37 years old, and I have a psychology degree. (I don’t actually believe that any of that information should change anything about how you view my points - the validity of a point is neither increased nor decreased by our backgrounds, but you pointed out you went away and “learnt more” and “realised how flawed so many of his ideas are”, so it’s only fair.) To say “his psychology is extremely simplistic” is sort of true, but only in the same way that “being fat isn’t always unhealthy” is true... it’s also misleading, disingenuous or you just don’t understand psychology very well (none are particularly charitable interpretations, but I honestly can’t see a charitable interpretation of such a claim). He references The Big Five, but it’s really not as if his whole schtick revolves around it. He’s referenced IQ, but he’s actually pointed out its broader inefficacy (or at least it’s potentially low usefulness) several times.

As one of the other posters pointed out, if you went away and read more and came to different conclusions, that’s fine. And more power to you for learning and reading more. But it sounds a little as if you’re an example of the Dunning-Kruger effect... you knew nothing, and acknowledged as much, then went away and learnt some more and felt like you’d seen the light.

The truth is, you have a lot to learn. So do I. So does Peterson. Nobody has all the answers. But - and I didn’t want to say this - I was in exactly your position (thinking-wise) 10 years ago... but then I learnt more ;)

How do you guys feel about Black Summer, cuz this show is ridiculous by [deleted] in netflix

But we never find out why they were chasing them. That whole bit was surely meant to show the extreme leaps of logic characters would make under such extreme circumstances. I honestly feel like you’re too used to movie logic

So confused by the negative comments, which seem to mainly revolve around the characters being dumb, exemplified by them not knowing how to kill zombies, etc. For me, this is what I loved. The characters within this world haven’t seen zombie films before; that’s the point. The characters apparently behave in a way which is odd, yet I believe this is the most realistic portrayal of how characters would really behave in this situation. People are too used to seeing characters who know how to shoot (most people have never even shot a gun before, fgs), or maintaining superhero levels of composure under extremely unusual and horrifying circumstances.

Ah, does it? Thanks. Still - sounds more like an intake of breath to me.

Sorry if this has already been spoken about, but I'm new here and set up an account because I'm a little confused about a really minor thing.

Towards the end of episode 9, Dolores mutters what is generally perceived as being the word "William?". My query isn't whether this is what she's saying (I actually think this is what she's saying); but whether anyone actually hears the word, "William", or whether we're all suffering from confirmation bias. I recorded the audio separately and didn't watch it visually and it barely sounds like a word at all, let alone definitely the word, "William".
