It's not hard to vet your new friends, Dr Peterson. If I can do it, I'm sure you can.

It’s ironic (or perhaps darkly poetic?) - his message of “Clean Your Room” echos the age-old wisdom:
Peterson brought the idea of a rational faith (oxymoron? Not in my understanding) to a generation of Nietzscheian Atheist (the modern day culturally dominant religion) untermensches.
Then, instead of actually living the message of sacrifice which he rode to fame and wealth, he tried so desperately to cling to his worldly goods that his subsequent fall is utterly undeniable.
Like you say, everyone these days (not just the right imo) seeks a savior, a messiah, to take the yoke unto themselves alone - and it’s leading to false messiahs left and right. They don’t get that when we all take the yoke together, the weight ceases to be a burden.
Idk, hope that made sense, just a seemingly interesting parallel that came to mind reading your insightful comment.
