“Accept the terrible responsibility of life with eyes wide open.” — Jordan Peterson
(I struggled to get this one started! I suspected “BJR” being THE, but I wasn’t seeing . . . EYES! It certainly doesn’t help that I always save the T’s and the E’s for last.
Never heard of this dude Jordan Peterson before. But, after reading a few articles about him I’m quickly becoming a fan. His critics try to call him right-wing and conservative, but his views on the importance of language, and the ever increasing dangers of “political correctness” align with my views precisely. Most of you know my ideology to be pretty liberal or left-wing, but every day I am more and more alarmed by the increasingly – mindless and unfair – “groupthink”! I refuse to conform to what is shaping up to be an Orwellian existence. I believe we can all still work for social justice without having to sacrifice critical thought, or our independence. The PC movement started out with the best of intentions, but it has become a self-consuming monster. We all need to step back, and look to where this is all heading. I just hope it isn’t already too late.
The esteemed clinical psychologist, Dr. Jordan Peterson, has graced the Cryptoquote for the very first time today. I hope it won’t be the last. We welcome him to the Cryptoquote Club today. Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR
