Jordan Peterson

Jordan Peterson is a Canadian clinical psychologist and professor who became a prominent public intellectual in the late 2010s.

He rose to fame opposing Canadian legislation on gender pronouns and through lectures on psychology, mythology, and self-help.

His advice to "clean your room" before criticizing the world became a meme.

Peterson attracts devoted followers and fierce critics—admirers see a voice for personal responsibility and traditional values, detractors see a gateway to reactionary politics.

My nephew got really into Jordan Peterson videos.
