I actually ignored JP for a long time but I decided to give a try to his book after reading the ssc review and god damn it's so readable.
Why do people hate it again ?

My impression (without reading any) is that he's a good writer with some good advice who is egregiously wrong a lot.

where "wrong" means "disagreeing with left-wing orthodoxy". He is on the "wrong" side of the culture war.

op here,
he becomes kinda preacy at some point and some of his ideas make 0 sense like when he's saying that his kid has an obviously intristic need to cover his body once he reaches a certain age when pretty much everyone agrees that the kid just starts recognising norms
so of the passages are tiring if you're not familiar with him ( which I am not )
not dropping this yet tho
I'm also interested if any of you can recommend me some of his youtube series.

I was thinking of cases where "wrong" means "complete garbage".

His Maps of Meaning also gets Godel (among everything else) so horribly wrong.
Nigga too egotistical, assumes he has deep knowledge of logic and language, has never read Godel once. Many such cases.

funny how being a certain kind of wrong about IQ and heritability won't get you any ridicule from the people criticizing him publicly

IQ and heritability is enough of a minefield that avoiding it is reasonable. But I can't think of a good excuse to be wrong like that.

Peterson doesn't speak with any conviction about having religious beliefs, he says he "acts as if God exists" not that he believes. Providing a clear answer would alienate a large number of listeners, so for his own benefit as a salesman he plays it very very safe.
