It's a wild statement to insinuate that your family voting for Trump somehow makes them bad people. Likewise, Peterson has some decent advice that I think should not fully be written off due to his personal life.
I haven't really seen anyone in this thread disqualify his argument based on merits and only using their own feelings to say he's wrong.
In all honesty, I don't have a horse in this race, but I don't think Peterson is a terrible as everyone seems to think. Maybe I'm crazy
Objectively it does.
Or just dumb.
I mean, just voting for Trump doesn't objectively make you a bad person... That's the definition of being subjective. Also, I'm confident in my intelligence, please don't make lemmy the dumpster fire that is Reddit.
I'm not saying that Trump is a good person, again this is a discussion of Peterson, but one could argue that aside from Trump's character he wasn't the worst president the US has had.
Your argument is purely semantic and not really substantive unless you define what a "bad person" is. That'll be different to everyone, so without a common operating definition of a "bad person" your point, while technically true, doesn't really mean anything.
