Why not take his actual position and point out the flaws in it and the scholarship he doesn't acknowledge?
For one, the hypocrisy of your declaration on who is and who is not competent enough to make claims on the competence of other is not lost on anybody. How does one gain competence? By educating themselves and listening to the teachings of educated others.

Please, engage in a modicum of self-awareness before engaging in another childish authoritarian rant about who is competent enough to make judgements on the competence of others. Not only is it hypocritical, but it treads dangerously close to an ad hominem that’s simply meant to shut down free speech.

Further, if you read the rest of the articles (including the article that quote was pulled from) you’ll see they do just what you request. Enjoy it, or don’t, nobody is making you be here.

Knock your socks off. If you only saw one counterargument in all of those articles, you either didn’t read them, or, well, I don’t know. Either way I’m not concerned about you consuming loads of Peterson based on how much you got from those articles.
