Interesting read. I don't entirely agree though.
While I think a lot of what Peterson says is right there is an underlying issue that I can't seem to shake. His focus of attack is primarily leftists on campus and how they are neutering free speech. Fair enough considering his background and experience. Since his crusade has really caught on he continues to sing the same hymn. Maybe it's through no fault of his own that he's being consistent but I think that there is a responsibility to discuss a wider spectrum when you have an audience and a platform as big as he does, otherwise he comes off as a biased, dishonest actor posing as the voice of reason.
I guess I wish that he'd spend as much time knocking down the logical fallacies of the right as he does the left, but he tends to just brush it off. So, the left, rightly or wrongly sees him as the enemy because that's how he's positioned himself. As a result, none of us should be surprised by these attacks from the left.
