    True, wealth of itself I don't have any issues with; how we go about it can be problematic; where are we putting something above others that matter, the love of money has many issues attached to it.
    I think Jordan Peterson makes an awful lot of money from

    kind of pitching himself to insecure, hapless, misogynistic teenage men,

    from kind of pitching himself to misery-guts, defeatist, misanthropic rightwing Christians,

    from kind of pitching himself to racists,

    from kind of pitching himself to Trump supporters,

    from kind of pitching himself to supporters of the patriarchy,

    from kind of pitching himself to climate change deniers,

    from kind of pitching himself to neo-fascists,

    ...and he is able to draw upon his own profound anger and misanthropy as he does so.

    As I say, you may not know much about the economics of podcasting.

    As I said, how we go about acquiring wealth is a different topic from having it.

    This Speech Will NEVER Be Forgotten | Delivered In Tears by Jordan Peterson
    Man, this guy needs to lighten up, go have a few beers or whatever. If your life isn't crap already it soon will be.
    I did sit through it, and most of it I've already forgotten, the rest I will forget when I've written this.
    Sorry, what was I writing about?

    I think you missed the point.
    I'm never surprised that people say this a) when the person criticized is someone they admire, or b) when the criticizer is a woman.

    or c) when there isn't really a point to get the point of.

    I don't care that you are a woman, your an individual as far as I'm concerned, missing the point didn't have anything to do with your sex.

    It's unlikely that @Suzianne would ever miss the point. I also imagine that she is always aware of the surrounds. Are you?

    You seem to be upset with me again Kevin Eleven. I can’t imagine why.

    I've decided, after reading and laughing, that I'd rather remain confused than try and cipher out the meaning and purpose of this thread.

    Too much cryptographic mud slinging.
