“I think the postmodern philosophy is intellectually vapid, nihilistic, malevolent, destructive, arrogant and narcisistic, and impratical as well, all at the same time."
Jordan Peterson does not mince words.

Excellent overall video talking about and showing the negative effects of postmodern ideology on the world. Jordan Peterson primarily talks about a radical leftist group that doesn’t want him in New Zealand. This long video includes, in the first 20 minutes, a great interview, with radical leftists rants about Jordan Peterson, blown apart with detailed facts by Sean Plunket. After that Jordan Peterson has a conversation directly with Sean Plunket. In the last 15 minutes, callers call in and ask their questions and make their comments, which were mostly about their revelation of personal responsibility, or “taking care of yourself.”

    The interview with the protest group person was really interesting from a psychological point of view. It was as if they were 100% convinced that their views were correct, but unsure exactly what those views are. Its not often that an interviewer has the patience to probe someone like that for so long.

      You don’t find that many people that are so stuck on their ideology that facts and details utterly contradicting their beliefs hardly sways them, or even encourages them relook at their own core “truth.” That’s why the category I picked for this topic was “philosophy.” Followers of postmodern idealism can be hard to argue with.
