      He hasn't slept in 25 days.
      Side note: I once managed to stay up for 3 whole days and things definitely got strange. I was playing Black Ops zombies with the homie and we were at that point having runs that would go for 8 plus hours each (often only ending when we got bored of the map, or to find more players online.) Fan on the console type gameplay. We were perfecting our strategies by exploiting each level to the max, getting better as a team. People would die and then stay in the lobby and watch for hours sometimes, commenting here and there or sometimes asking questions. This was hard science for us. My mom had gotten vendor-size (16-can) cases of full size Monster Java "White Russian" real cheap, which we basically lived on. We had basically a mini-fridge packed with Monster, a huge boon, a true bounty. That and cigarettes. And the odd McChicken run. Copious amounts of high-quality cannabis. Cannot tell you what amounts of these things I consumed, not out of secrecy, but instead out of honesty. It was... enough. So too much. Like, entirely too much.
      By the end of the final night I was seeing translucent zombies manifesting off in the distance of the overgrown field across from my porch. They'd rapidly come into a starkly more detailed form under the streetlamp, dash, and vanish just as fast. I was hearing all of the different sounds from the game going off in my head, as though the sound was physically in my cranium, not just my mind. Grenade explosions, gunfire, screams and shit. Those damned monkeys. The cartoonishly overacted voiceover lines for the player characters were reverberating endlessly in my braincase. Maddening. It DID make me smoke far less, which I guess was good (glad I quit that years ago.) It's not worth it if I gotta hang out with the zombies just to catch a square mannn. It's bad enough I'm already having auditory war flashbacks. I couldn't with the zombies. I was all discombobulated - it felt like nothing in the world around me made any sense and it left me perturbed, even baseline agitated.
      At no point did I not know it wasn't real, but it was definitely unsettling. There was a weird static over everything, electrical auras around objects. Everything seemed strange, kind of the opposite of deja vu. I know my surroundings are very familiar, but I literally feel like I'm in another town where everyone is an alien. I couldn't begin to pin down a track of mind. The part of me acting was just doing normal things but I swear I was out to lunch.
      And even THEN, I did not find myself experiencing ANY aspirations to make weird children's propaganda about postmodernist philosophers generally not known of outside of academic circles.
      What I'm saying is, I can't PROVE he's on the cider. But I suspect the cider is the missing component to why I personally was not utterly consumed by a desire to impute my absolute moral will in the form of a judgy puppet-show music video. I think there might be something to it. We all know how his constitution settles with it... direly. I am glad I did not consume any cider that evening, though admittedly I seem to tolerate it better than he does. Who knows what could've happened, y'know?

    So apparently those Russian doctors who did that bizarre coma treatment on him also diagnosed him with a form of schizophrenia but he rejected their diagnosis. This could explain A LOT of his behavior. Emotional instability, hyper religious thinking, delusions of grandeur etc. His loved ones need to take him out of the public eye. But I think there are a lot of people around him who he's a gravy train for, particularly his daughter who co created this humiliating video.
    EDIT: apparently it was Canadian doctors who diagnosed him with schizophrenia, his daughter convinced him this was wrong, and directed him towards that sketchy Russian coma treatment that almost killed him. Wild. She is something else.

      It was Canadian doctors who diagnosed him with schizophrenia, those Russian doctors just took his money and did whatever Lobsterson asked them to do. He got diagnosed when he tried figuring out what was wrong with him and no doctor in North America would agree to put Jordy in his insane coma treatment (that his daughter, an internet blogger, recommended). The Petersons rejected the diagnosis because his daughter didn't agree with the diagnosis because, according to her medical knowledge, Peterson's symptoms didn't align with her understanding of schizophrenia. The irony is his daughter, with the sheer confidence only a gifter like her has, praises the Russian "doctors" for putting her father in a coma. The same coma that resulted in multiple seizures, brain damage, and Peterson needing to relearn how to walk and talk.
      Final Note: It can't be stressed enough how stupid Peterson's plan was. The sheer irony in him doing what he did when he presents himself as an authority on neuroscience is truly something. His entire plan to cure him (his illness has changed various times btw) was to sleep through his addiction cravings...only problem is addiction literally rewires your brain meaning he can starve the cravings as long as he want, if he doesn't try to form new habits (rewire those addictive neuronal pathways/address triggers), those cravings will still be there once he wakes up from the coma. This is one of the reasons addiction is incredibly difficult to overcome. If I, who took neurobiology in undergrad and have a surface level understanding of addiction came to this realization, how did the smartest man in the world not realize this?

The book misattributes quotes all throughout it and misrepresents the views of nearly all the philosophers it covers. So even within the context of this weird world he thinks we live in where everyone on the left is into Foucault and Derrida, he’s still wrong.

    It seems like the whole point of Peterson's song is to try and skewer the ideas of postmodern philosophers, but never manages to actually achieve that goal in any way. Instead the lyrics just rapidly name-checks a bunch of postmodernists before assertively declaring some lame variation of "that person sucks". I know that structurally it's actually based on 'Lily the Pink', but given the subject matter, Monty Python's Philosophers Song is still the most relevant comparison. Monty Python's song worked because it was never really about making fun of the ideas of the philosophers mentioned in the lyrics, but more about making fun of those singing the song - who in the original skit were a bunch of beer swilling Australian "philosophy professors" all named Bruce, sitting there wearing stereotypical slouch hats and crocodile hunter style outfits. The gag was that the only thing they really knew about the famous philosophers was that they "probably drank a lot". That's what made it actually funny. This on the other hand is not funny - just cringeworthy and pathetic.

      Even with Lily the Pink, you're given characters and their problems, along with how they're solved (sorta) by Lily's medicinal compond. Peterson's version just feels like the world's worst diss track as he lists off the writers he has grievances with.

      I now think they are supposed to be visibly mocking the Left. In other words, what Taco guy sees on his screen, is a mix of mainstream media being a Trojan horse for leftism, the pomo villains Foucault and Derrida who provide the intellectual rationale for the new left in power, and the ragtag iconoclasts of the Daily Wire, who are meanwhile mocking the leftist clown-world around them, e.g. by "drinking to those who won't think".

      Thing is he couldent have been right upstairs to start with, anyone who knows anything about drug use, let alone a supposedly licensed medical "professional" would know that the only thing putting yourself in a coma through a benzo withdrawl will do is let you sleep through your neuron terminals being fried. A long and slow taper is the only way to manage that kind of physical dependence without causing brain damage. He would know this through his schooling, the only way he thought what he was doing was a good idea would be if he was magically thinking he was a "special" one who was immune to it

    I dunno, I find his music video to be unintentionally insightful. It's a glimpse into the mind of someone that has had a psychotic break with reality fueled by right-wing hysteria. The person is both the consumer and intended audience yet also a subject of derision but that derision is less direct towards them than the bigotry and ridicule of others. Thus, they are not uplifted but put upon and then given an object to vent at. Fueled by paranoia and constant noise, they do not question the propaganda but blast it and accept it. They lash out at their fellow worker whose position is similar to theirs. Not an individual but one and the same with the propagandist they listen to...
    admittedly, that is an interpretation of my own and in no way reflective of the authors intent. The author has no coherent intent here. They are too lost in the sauce to have a coherent or concise point. They are just a talking head, listening to themselves from another place.

      But really, there's so much irony and in-joke in the video, that I could still be missing a big part of what it's about.

    "Lily the Pink" is a 1968 song released by the UK comedy group The Scaffold, which reached No. 1 in the UK Singles Chart. It is a modernisation of an older folk song titled "The Ballad of Lydia Pinkham". The lyrics celebrate the "medicinal compound" invented by Lily the Pink, and humorously chronicle the "efficacious" cures it has brought about, such as inducing morbid obesity to cure a weak appetite, or bringing about a sex change as a remedy for freckles.
