TLDR: Jordan Peterson actually believes:
1. White privilege doesn't exist
2. African poverty isn't due to colonialism
3. Socioeconomic differences are mostly due to IQ
4. Societal hierarchies and inequality are natural and good and we shouldn't combat them
5. White men are discriminated against and have no chance in modern society
If you don't think he's a White Supremacist's wet dream then you aren't paying attention. Sure, he doesn't say anything "explicitly" racist, he's just constantly affirming every single argument the racists need to push their lies and claim they have intellectual support.
I'll help y'all out.
First of all, he's been constantly pushing the idea that White privilege isn't real and that claims of racial discrimination are exaggerated. This clip contains multiple historical falsehoods and either shows him to be incredibly ignorant on race history or just a straight liar.
Same claims go for the rest of the world - he claims Africa being poor isn't due to colonialization:
Peterson constantly pushes the idea that IQ is determinative in society, and that the people who have risen to the top in society do so merely because they have higher IQs, not because of any special advantage. He has explicitly posted this in racial terms when it comes to Jews.
Note that he doesn't say "that's why Black people are on the bottom", because he knows that saying that explicitly would confirm what people say about him, but the dog whistle is obvious. If he doesn't believe that white privilege exists, and he believes that IQ is the main determinate of socioeconomic success, and he believes group differences in IQ are large and real, then what does he think about Black people? In other essays he says there Black people aren't discriminated against in high-end fields, but there just aren't enough qualified ones to fill positions. If he thinks White privilege doesn't exist, and he thinks IQ is the #1 determinative factor, they why would he claim Black people are unqualified unless he believes they just plain aren't intelligent enough? That is the NATURAL conclusion from his position.
Amazingly, despite the massive glut of White men at the top of every high-end profession, he claims White men have no chance in society. He literally quit his job to defend them
Remember when this guy wanted to be called an intellectual? :francis: The amazing shyt is how strong the victimhood narrative is in this bullshyt even though he always claims he tells his incel white male audience not to be victims. :mjlol: Jordan Peterson: Why I am no longer a tenured...

The appalling ideology of diversity, inclusion and equity is demolishing education and business

Imagine claiming that White men have a negligible chance of employment (and remember, he thinks white privilege doesn't exist).
Imagine claiming that BIPOC people aren't qualified enough to be professors (and remember, he thinks IQ is the #1 determining factor of that, not discrimination)
Imagine suggesting that it's rational to immediately be skeptical of the credentials of any Black grad student or young professor.
How the fukk is this argument not justifying racism?
Now, on top of all this, he's contantly defending inequality and heirarchies as a good thing. He constantly argues against any societal effort to reduce inequality (unless the conversation goes to helping white male incels, when all of the sudden big interventions like forced monogamy are okay).
Put 2 and 2 together, please. He lets it all hang out there short of outright saying, "Black people are too stupid to succeed, so fukk them."
