Need a plate of generic, insipid platitudes with a giant helping of bad science and misogyny?

    Never take advice on personal responsibility from a guy who intentionally put himself in a coma to avoid taking responsibility for his addiction to a narcotic with zero medicinal properties.

      It’s so weird for me that he seemed surprised that benzos are, in fact, highly addictive with severe withdraw symptoms. Isn’t he a psychologist and potentially someone who is allowed to prescribe such drugs?

        “Depression is a myth; tidy your room. Also, I’ve been clinically depressed for my whole adult life and I shamble from one crisis to another.”

          Does he say depression is a myth? And when you get a little respite from the darkness, picking up the depression den a bit feels amazing.

    Haven’t heard about him in ages. I just assumed Joe Rogan had nicked his audience.

    Oh god, this is so embarassing for us as a society. Young men look for guidance, and all they find is Rape Tate who tells you to be an alpha male by just being obnoxiously “superior” to others.
    John Peanutbutter who tells you to be an alpha male but with science in your brain
    fresh and fit who tell you to be alpha males but by figuratively just shaming women
    and on the opposite side you have nothing for a while and then you have destiny and hasan who try to make you debate like highschoolers.

    Is the world just full of grifters now?

    I like how every year he somehow gets worse. I didn’t think he could descend further from professor so annoying he refuses to call students by their preferred names. After the Zizek debate where he had no clue what he was talking about, he’s become like a Charles Dickens character. He’s like a crazy uncle kept in the attic because he’s lost his mind from laudanum.

      I hate Zizek but boy did Zizek make Peterson look bad in that debate (though, it’s not hard)

    I can help you as well. Just turn to Hedonism, which is pretty much the opposite of what Jelly B Peanutbutter tells you to do.
    Quit your job, become an artist. Heck, become a twitch streamer, I don’t care. Try to do what brings you joy. And remember to eat the rich.
