Dismantling Jordan Peterson?

in #psychology6 years ago (edited)

I don't think he dismantled Jordan Peterson, but I do think he's not nearly integrated enough to grasp the concepts being put forward by JP. The gentleman doing the presentation really doesn't seem to grasp the concept of emotionally motivated reasoning, and emotional polarization, for if he did, he would understand what JP is actually warning against. Nor does he understand internal vs external locus of control/identity, and how it relates to the unconscious shadow, shadow projection, and how people can be manipulated via their unconscious shadow.

JP's not worried about the right rising up and neutralizing the political left, he's worried about people on the right having their unconscious shadow manipulated in such a way as they lose their ability to reason, reflect, and stay in control of directing their lives, and shift from an internal locus to an external locus of identity. What's happening on the world stage is that people on the right are being provoked into a fight or flight response by unreasonable progressive ideologues, and are therefore having their critical ability to reason diminished, and now, even though they're on the side of enlightenment values, they're not actually tuned into them--instead, they're behaving emotionally and instinctually as an emotionally motivated reaction to the ideologues.
