On Jordan Peterson

Just watched a bit of an interview from this psychologist from Canada who is avowedly religious and conservative and has a big following on the Internet.

The interview was about a month ago, and he has some health problems and looks a bit unhealthfully thin. He can seem a bit strident. But I like him because he emphasizes moral values, and psychologists often seem to be relativists.

There is this idea of “virtue signaling” now, which basically seems to mean hypocrisy. But my argument is what else is there to signal? “Everyone thinks they are right.” Right.
