Huge props to Peterson for being able to realize and admit his mistakes. That shit is rare nowadays.

[Lawrencembugua]

I listened to that debate and I felt the same. Am glad JP is reflecting on it.

[firefly]

Jordan have Vietnam flashbacks of that debate🤣

[mega]

You're a fucking legend for being able to admit humility and turn it into wisdom. A truly rare skill in humanity.

Stone met the Rock. I like Jordan Peterson, he couldn’t perform well like he usually does because Sam Harris is not a regular person, I think JP somehow got intimidated by Sam’s calmness, sharpness and great sense of humor.

[marveen]

Sam Harris had the upper hand the whole time

[lingy]

He seems like such a tortured soul while Sam has the clarity and calm of a stoic

[MsCoolGemini]

He sure got upset and admitted in a British GQ convo that his greatest fear is to look stupid.😅

I want to see J P address Matt Dillahunty clearly displaying the true lack of intellect in Jordan's points. I watched that entire debate twice now and every time...as unbiased as I tried to be- I cannot make reason of or come to understand anything Peterson is saying. One of the worst and definitely weirdest of men trying to defend their imaginary friend

[joshuaatkins]

Ive followed both Jordan and Sam. When I heard they were going to have a sit-down I was very excited. Watching the sit-down was very difficult. They seemed much further apart than they would have been.

[steve]

there’s level to this. jordan peterson and shapiro are good but sam harris is on another level then hitchens is totally untouchable by these people. harris comes from the point of discussion while peterson is trying to attack and comes from a place of insecurity.

[gqccghh]

ok, not my favorite guy but to see him admit that earns him some points for sure

[AM_o]

Harris uses long words when they're the right tool for the job. Peterson uses long words to obfuscate, equivocate and prevaricate.

[matthewelmes]

What went wrong was that Peterson tried to debate someone that was smarter than him.

[RedJoker]

Glad he accepted his mistake. I was like "WTF do you mean if I'm 100% objective id be omniscient" in debate. I thought "he must be in a hard place not to respond coherently". You saw his anger too.

[godless]

He wanted to "win" and he realized that he couldn't do that if he simply answered Sam's questions honestly.

Yeah JP . . . Everyone who was actually listening already knew this.

[grglvr]

Will he ever realize that inadequacy is the center of his obsession? And that's no virtue.

[philsmith]

And still he sounds confused, desperate to find a way to fit the world to his beliefs.

[aguy]

JP used semantics and sophistry to spout religion affirming nonsense during that discussion.

And since that time he has doubled down his defense of religion, just as nonsensically as before, ESPECIALLY with regard to the Bible.

I don’t see him rectifying that here.

[thorstenmarquardt]

The problem is that Peterson doesn’t think based on facts and logic.

So he is not compatible in terms of communication.

It’s easier for him to get along with Islamists just like he has started doing recently
