Peterson showed why he is loved by alienated, angry, young, white men. Imagines himself as far more intelligent that he actually is, all he needs to understand reality are his senses. Make some shit up that sounds good because either people won't know better to call you on it or they'll accept it because they want it to be true. Take complex ideas and reduce them so much that the lay person can understand them, even though they've lost all meaning at that point.
Same thing with Shapiro and Kirk and whatever other "intellectual" young, right-wing people claim.
