Jordan Peterson BTFO

Holy shit, how can he ever recover?

The supposed distinction between 'exploring the human condition/eternal truths' and 'politically didactic' prevalent in older literary criticism is a silly and false one, anyway. That isn't to say there isn't a hierarchy of loftier goals and explorations, of course.

Do you mean the distinction between the concepts, or the distinction between works which "serve" those concepts?

If the former then fuck you

Peterson believes that Dostoevsky brought both sides of the argument in his novels. He did not make one side weak and his favored side strong in order to persuade the reader to agree with him. I'm assuming his attack of Frozen was that it does not do the same. That it makes one side weak and another strong in order to persuade the viewer.

How can a work of fiction possibly demonstrate anything about the real world? I can write a book where Jews aren't insidious nation wreckers, what does that prove?

My god reddit are stupid. Something in their brain lights up 'ah I can get him in a trap!!!' then get 50 upvotes. All to defend a shitty disney movie?

hahaha

To be fair, I think many people literally don't understand the distinction.

not to necessarily defend a disney movie, but present a strong counterargument for a ridiculous argument made by jordan peterson.

but anyway dont get this guy, does he feel threatened by the movie? and why cant a movie show that a woman doesnt need a man to be succesful. that shouldnt even be considered a political message

prove, prove, prove

is that the only word you positivist niggers know?
