Ep 6: Peterson > Taleb. Any Day

Ep 6: Peterson > Taleb. Any Day

I had a debate with my brother over a year ago now, about Taleb VS Peterson.

His conjecture was that Peterson’s work is just religious shit, whilst Taleb is a genius trader → and that’s all that apparently matters.

This triggered some thinking on my part, but it didn’t come up again until recently, over the course of the CoronaScam, where I’ve seen him throw out many of his purporter values.

This was further reinforced by his recent behaviour & comments about Bitcoiners too.

Now don’t get me wrong Taleb is a brilliant mind, but I think he’s a hypocrite in many ways (really fat & unhealthy guy who apparently deadlifts), so I question the authenticity of his character → the quality of his work notwithstanding

I enjoy both their work, but Peterson to me has a depth of authenticity, and a depth of character which I truly admire. And the more mature I become, the more I realise that is where the value lies in the humans we learn from & aspire to be.

I’ll let the video do the talking.
