Harvard is too big to be the basis of a connection on its own. Eric's only famous because his brother stood against anti white racism at evergreen state. Eric's connection to soros and coining of the term intellectual dark web does concern me a bit. Do we really need a new version of the atheist horsemen? If JP convinces people to avoid ideology and grow up, that's probably beneficial enough to overcome whatever nefarious connection this is alleging. Be a great spouse, parent, and professional - sounds like not a psyop.
What I gained from the post is the "grow up and avoid ideology" is directed at disillusioned white males. Redirecting their energy from potential action(they are the biggest threat to globalism and have the most to lose) to accept their fate and be happy with being societies workhorse and at the same time, the scapegoat. Placating that group to servitude and making them feel intellectually superior for it.
The thing that bothers me is why hasn't he been fired? The things he's said are way more offensive to progressives than stuff others have said and been fired over. Isn't that a bit bothersome? Why are they letting him keep his job and keep talking without retribution?
You're getting closer.Jordan Peterson is approved opposition of slight resistance to the Marxist language creep and strong resistance to the alt-right and specifically discouraging young white men from "degrading" to identity politics.

I would agree with you, other than two fronts.
He gained notoriety and has spoken widely about taking a stand for one's beliefs and understanding the negative consequences of doing so.
Secondly, I feel that the strength of the individual is paramount to strength of the group (whether that be family, society, nation, etc.)
But, I buy what he's selling for the most part so perhaps I'm biased against seeing his work in a negative light.
