So... he created his own safe space?
Only real men who have their house in order, at the peak of human intelligence, grift the most mentally unstable, and attack the most vulnerable, members of society; get addicted to benzos and fly to Russia to be put in a medically induced coma to avoid enduring the consequences of their actions, ostracise themselves professionally, then spend the rest of their lives a talking head for the right wing propaganda machine.
You're just to woke to understand his genius...

So, another PragerU?
KermitU
That is an insult to the Muppets and the memory of Jim Henson.
I feel bad for it.

Jordan Peterson announces he's launching a new scam.
It’s better to do something badly than to not do it at all.
His own quote. I can't make this shit up.
I think he should take up skydiving.

I hope someday he gets the help he needs so he can leave everyone alone.
He tried to get the help he needed in Russia. It did not go well.
At least he didn't go to China. I've seen what they do to people there. Peterson showed me.
A new age of anti-intellectualism awaits us.
The new age of anti-intellectualism persists. Continues. Stubbornly endures.
Those who can, do.
Those who can't, open their own university and grift people.
I can't believe this dude finds anyone gullible enough to listen to him after the times he's been utterly wrecked in debates.
all you really need to do is say stuff with conviction that supports a groups politics and sound vaguely plausable/intelligent while you do it. they will then tout you as an infallible expert
I’m neither smart nor well educated, but the biggest mistake I made in my life was underestimating how widespread deep stupidity seems to be.
George Carlin — 'Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.'
Funny part is that technically even that statement is wrong.
This is true for the median intelligence, not the average.
Although both numbers are probably very close it's still funny to me.

Cool, well, HR software can add a filter for his university so apps get auto rejected.
Grifters gonna grift.
Haven't we already tried Trump U and Praeger U?
This is just one more embarrassment for the conservative movement.
The former psychology professor vowed the program would be 95% less expensive than a typical university.
Not that hard when I look at what the hell American universities cost.
Of course, they give you real degrees.
jordan peterson cooking up a whole new type of idiot. can't wait to see the first cohort of freethinkers launch a series of startups based on stuff like reselling the breadsticks from olive garden
Now the right is devaluing the word university. SMH…
They've been doing that for a long time.
PragerU has been infecting education since its inception and is now having its propaganda adopted by right wingers as official course material in genuine schools.
Trump University was disbanded in 2010.
Brigham Young has been around well over a century, started by an outspoken racist shitbag and still having extreme right wing and racist policies and views today.
They know full well that controlling and infecting education is the only way to breed sufficient amounts of people dumb and prejudiced enough to vote for their side.
It's why cutting public education has been a number 1 target for the right wing since forever.
BYU, no matter it's history, is at least accredited and has a decent academic reputation. You can get your degree from there and it means something. You might not want to go there if you're not Mormon (or are a Mormon who doesnt "look" like one), but it's not like you are setting your career back if you do.
For a while I kept getting Liberty U ads on my LinkedIn feed even though I kept reporting them.

I thought he did this 5 years ago, and then never heard anything of it again. Was that a fever dream, or did he fail to find his blackjack and hookers?
I think back then he was going to create an alternative to Patreon.
I think it was before that, but after publishing lists of U of T faculty he wanted his incel army to harass and threaten.

Narcissism never ends.
"We'll see who cancels who!"
Spreading this sort of announcement only gives these people more motivation to continue devaluing the country as is.
Because people on Lemmy will be inspired to take his "university" courses? I doubt it.
