Need a plate of generic, insipid platitudes with a giant helping of bad science and misogyny?

I hate Zizek but boy did Zizek make Peterson look bad in that debate (though, it’s not hard)

My favorite part is where Zizek, in good faith, asked Peterson to name a few of the Marxist professors. (Peterson at this point of the debate had been saying academia had been seized by Marxist malefactors). Peterson couldn't name any.

Zizek offered the name David Harvey, a highly influential British Marxist professor known for his commentary on Capital. Peterson had never heard of him.
