    You're editorializing. Tweet text: I'm an atheist, but I've enjoyed many of his religious allegories. So too his various definitions of masculinity. And I find him a far more rigorous thinker than his detractors the vast majority of the time. That he's ALSO entertaining is a cherry on top!

        It's part of the guidelines https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

        > If the title contains a gratuitous number or number + adjective, we'd appreciate it if you'd crop it. E.g. translate "10 Ways To Do X" to "How To Do X," and "14 Amazing Ys" to "Ys." Exception: when the number is meaningful, e.g. "The 5 Platonic Solids."

        > Otherwise please use the original title, unless it is misleading or linkbait; don't editorialize.

          Updated. Do you think the current one is ok?

    This is an opinion from a real intellectual https://youtu.be/6qnWqlYMipM?feature=shared

    And this is the article that he is mentioning https://www.currentaffairs.org/news/2018/03/the-intellectual...

    You can't expect everyone to be perfectly ideologically pure on every topic. I'm not a fan of Peterson and honestly, I think that after the whole benzo addiction and coma I think he's kind of lost it, he's always putting out strange statements. But he's not even saying that he agrees with Peterson on everything.

    Check out his conversation with Matt Dillahunty.

    So what? Differing opinions seem to upset so many so easily.

      "So what?"

      So some of the "successful" people in our industry never read anything other than technical books. And if they have read some, they never understood anything.

        I don't understand your point.
