Long before the Right (or the Left) noticed Jordan Peterson’s right-of-center political bend, he was a sound academic, an intellectually honest lecturer, and YouTube “star.” Which is why so many people can’t stand him, save for the few of course who love him. The few who love him do so precisely because of the reason everyone hates him.
Women on the Right especially love Peterson because he tells men to man up — see the “Tragic Story of the Man-Child” — and that’s why a lot of men abhor his take-it-or-leave-it call to manhood. More mature members of the millennial or Generation X generations appreciate reading or listening to his no-nonsense advice rooted in common sense and psychological underpinnings — which is exactly what most of the younger generations can’t stand. All this is why America needs this Canadian, and why he has become an “overnight” sensation that has been brewing for decades.
