    one day i was extremely bored and i downloaded a copy of his book maps of meaning which this is from (which i think is his only proper 'academic' book as a professor), and oh boy is it ever full of batshit diagrams like this

    i didnt read it because obviously, but its some thing about applying some jungian analysis to various creation myths or something like that. which explains the paradise garden and yahweh bit but not exactly the...rather large leap to "women are the chaos dragon in the matriarchal world of darkness"

    also while we're doing old jordan peterson i will never stop reposting this video because omg this will also never not be funny as hell (cw: misogyny)

      I've read a decent amount of his stuff, it's all based on vibes. X thing has y vibes. Y thing has z vibes, so even while x doesn't have z vibes, they are connected by vibe chain. So, if you compare this list of things that share vibes with z and things that share vibes with x, see the connection? (There is no connection) Thats why it's a common story trope for things with x vibes to interact with things in this way. And the reason why it's a story trope is because it's true. Things with these vibes always do this, you can see it.

      And there is never an end or point to any of it. The only material things are very generic generally good advice like organize things that you don't understand and it will be easier for you to understand. Cut up problems into smaller pieces of you can't handle everything at once. That kind of stuff.

        Scientology probably has some nuggets of wisdom within the alienating hypercapitalist hellscape of its doctrines, too.

      Since Jung was mentioned I want to point out that he was a quack and a sex creep. I think Freud disowned him because he wouldn't stop fucking his "patients". And all his "Theories" are just complete nonsense with no basis in reality.
