I heard Peterson rip a well known anti-trans and racist writer a new one. He saw right through her down to the deepest lie and told her to her face her position was based in her personal white supremacist arrogance . She paused for a short moment then continued.
Nothing will stop these haters, nothing. Because it is irrational. Her followers are also irrational and do not care about refutation. His interview was very instructive on what these people are like because it was real and in real time.
I am not so naïve to think that an interviewer necessarily agrees with what the interviewee says . I also think an interviewer doesn't have to label or spell out to the audience what they should think.
Should we avoid listening to things that are difficult? Of course not. If we want to change the world we have to learn how to do it.
