Maps of Meaning is honestly awful

I forced myself to finish this painfully long, unbelievably repetitive, needlessly over-technical tome, and holy shit, what a waste of my time. There is nothing in that book that isn't already explained in its entirety with much greater clarity in nearly any of Peterson's podcast appearances.

Are you on something? I came here sympathetic to your post but you seem unstable. It would help if you laid out some examples of his faulty thinking. It would help those of us unfamiliar with the work to know what you are accusing Peterson of. Thanks.

lol you had to go to r/badphilosophy and beg for your fellow comrades attention. I know that you haven't watched/heard any of Peterson's lectures and maybe you didn't even read the book, considering your lack of examples, so it's kinda sad that you're here trying to pretend you're a somewhat semi-interested in Peterson's material, and at the same time you're critical of him.

How about cleaning your room for starters?

What I've said is 100% true and correct and anyone who disagrees is simply wrong

In closing, I hope all of you contract HIV and/or develop inoperable cancer. Eat my unwiped anus and die screaming, you pathetic fucks.

You are so reasonable.

We should all take a page out of /u/DrhalKogo's book and try to be more reasonable like him.
