It does sound like something he would say XD

Jordan Peterson, the crying man depicted at the bottom, is known for his, uh, very... abstractly worded defenses of conservative positions like 'women need to be controlled' and 'any deviation from my upper-middle class norms is the fall of Western Civilization(tm)'.

"This follows the French gambit archetype, a story that's been in our culture for hundreds of generations, where women are depicted as subjects who assert their need for fortification from external threats... and that's why women should be subservient to men."

Fake quote, but it does sound like the kind of thing he'd say. Unfortunately, he's pretty bad at making his reasoning sound, and he likes to cite stories as if they imply anything about what anyone should do.

As a west coast Canadian teen/young adult in the 90s I can’t humbly disagree more.

These should be reversed.

It's supposed to be as if Jordan Peterson is saying it.

It's intentionally wack.

Ahh shit thanks. I didn’t recognize the person at all and decided it was rando after double checking it wasn’t RFK Jr.

I’ve just now realised that Jordan Peterson and RFK Jr are not the same person.

one of them sounds like Kermit, the other sounds like Cookie Monster.
