'Word salad of nonsense': scientists denounce Jordan Peterson's comments on climate models

Jordan Peterson is Canada’s Polymath William F. Buckley. He is intellectually precocious, with tremendous powers of vocabulary and recall of years of digesting facts and probably everything he’s ever read, and an intellectual vanity that has a hard time containing his disdain for folks that challenge or don’t agree with him. He prides himself on knowing everything about everything. We see this on full display with Buckley in a segment he did with Noam Chomsky years ago. He refuses to allow Chomsky a moment, a win on a detail.

Peterson has been called a generalist. I think that is too benign a description. Yet, I’m sure he is a nice fellow. However, one should not use their intellectual precocity to assist in the possible destruction of the planet.

You simply have to turn on the television to discover what Buckley left us.
