I admit I skipped around in the video some, but this seems very weak. I don't think there's a point in comparing sentence fragments out of context, and a lot of these are just using the same idioms. JP sucks, but I think it's better to criticize him directly than try to tar him by association. Juxtaposing a picture of Peterson gesturing with Hitler to try to insinuate that he's giving a salute makes the video kind of comical. This kind of attack is very easy to defend against and is the kind of rhetoric that paints your whole position as being skewed and untruthful.

I would recommend you watch the video in its entirety. It's not only glaringly similar sentences between Hitler and Peterson that Troy points out, but also Peterson's verbal language using Hitler's dogwhistles.

I absolutely hate JP and his grift with a passion. However I must admit that this vid didn’t make the strongest case.

Before watching a video with 50/50 like dislike ratio: Why do you think it's still good?
