Redit makes you a university professor overnight!

What I do not see or hear in JP's material are broad sweeping generalizations, partly reasoned conclusions or an overreaching use of I'll defined terminology or acronyms. You cannot do other than respect the arguments of one with a clear agenda of promoting self improvement beginning with a high standard of clarity of meaning, an insistence on semantics, if you will.

Pretty good prose, that! Right?

Too many seem to think that their pet opinions, based on little more than their personal brain fog of the day or better still, derivative ideas, are proper grist for the redit publication mill. Frankly most pseudo-intellectual drivel on this thread appears written by people or bots posing as intellectuals. Now I'm not saying everyone needs to obtain a gradual degree in philosophy or even a basic course in elementary formal logic, but it is clearly evident many posters are so self impressed to believe their comments add to the intelligent discussions others attempt to engage in by these posts.

It appears that as a partjcipant in proper forum for debate, one ought to put in some deep thought before posting. Genuine intellectual thought takes effort. It considers the merits of opposing arguments. It uses occams razor to cull or prune lines of thinking which cannot be justified. It deeply considers opposing views and accepts a very real probability that it's own bastions of reason have faulty foundations.

So just being a redit reader, a Jordan Peterson fan or follower, does not instantly endow you with a PhD. By same reasoning I also openly admit the realm of the intellectual is not the exclusive domain of the formally educated. True intellectual creds are established on personal effort and discipline.

Being on this tread and posting to it, does not make you an instant intellectual or part of the illuminati elite.
