@VonJay but the subject of psychology already assumes consciousness and goes from there, it's not an exercise in defining consciousness and/or deriving its origin, which is Penrose's (among others) battle. They left it with Descartes' "I think, therefore I am" because it's really not that helpful to spend more time on the origin of consciousness for the purposes of understanding human behaviour. I expect a psychologist to do what Peterson does, to talk about personality archetypes, behavioural traits and psychological differences between the genders, etc. He loves going out of his area, and we've established that's a real chore (and a bore) for people whose expertise it encroaches upon

@VonJay his area is psychology. He kills me when he discusses economics or nutrition, but then i remember he's a clinical psychologist, not an economist. Just bear it in mind

@VonJay “My point was that he has said nothing innovative involving his expertise” He hasn’t broken any new ground in his field, but he has been important in delineating psychological and behavioural differences in male and female psychology, since there are sex-based discrepancies which undermine the current narratives of transgenderism, gender fluidity and other such nonsense. In that regard, he’s been an objective, data-driven bulwark against this idiocy. “Jordan couldn’t bring up anything of relevance on the workings of the mind” It’s OK that he’s not the right man to help with Penrose’s work, it doesn’t make him useless. He's clearly doing something right if the authorities are worried about him, since he has done nothing illegal or unethical. There's clearly an agenda to confuse the sh1t out of people, and he's good at knocking back crazed members of the press (lots of proof of that in his interviews with journalists)

@VonJay "That’s called common sense" Well, common sense isn't that common, so we agree to disagree on his usefulness. Adios
