So... he created his own safe space?

- Only real men who have their house in order, at the peak of human intelligence, grift the most mentally unstable, and attack the most vulnerable, members of society; get addicted to benzos and fly to Russia to be put in a medically induced coma to avoid enduring the consequences of their actions, ostracise themselves professionally, then spend the rest of their lives a talking head for the right wing propaganda machine.
  
  You're just to woke to understand his genius...

  Hi, woke moralist here. Please reconsider framing addiction as a moral failing. It's a disease.

It’s better to do something badly than to not do it at all.

His own quote. I can't make this shit up.

- I think he should take up skydiving.

I hope someday he gets the help he needs so he can leave everyone alone.

- He tried to get the help he needed in Russia. It did not go well.

  At least he didn't go to China. I've seen what they do to people there. Peterson showed me.

Those who can, do.

Those who can't, open their own university and grift people.

I can't believe this dude finds anyone gullible enough to listen to him after the times he's been utterly wrecked in debates.

- all you really need to do is say stuff with conviction that supports a groups politics and sound vaguely plausable/intelligent while you do it. they will then tout you as an infallible expert

- I’m neither smart nor well educated, but the biggest mistake I made in my life was underestimating how widespread deep stupidity seems to be.

  It’s not only deep stupidity, it’s also a concerted effort to seek out a specific confirmation of reality that insulates them from the actual problems in the world that are scary and difficult to solve

Haven't we already tried Trump U and Praeger U?

This is just one more embarrassment for the conservative movement.

Cool, well, HR software can add a filter for his university so apps get auto rejected.

Grifters gonna grift.

jordan peterson cooking up a whole new type of idiot. can't wait to see the first cohort of freethinkers launch a series of startups based on stuff like reselling the breadsticks from olive garden

Now the right is devaluing the word university. SMH…

Spreading this sort of announcement only gives these people more motivation to continue devaluing the country as is.

- Because people on Lemmy will be inspired to take his "university" courses? I doubt it.

  That isn’t what I meant. If you are in a room full of a thousand people and one person in the back, the loudest, is shouting hate, why would you listen to it and then announce it to others
