Jordan Peterson is roughly a 2/10 in intelligence (1/10 being average). When I judge a person's intelligence I am not simply referring to intelligence in the classical sense, but basically every intellectual capacity someone could have including creativity, wisdom, knowledge on particular subjects etc.

So you are giving Jordan Peterson a 2/10 despite the fact that he is a senior professor of psychology at Toronto University?

FM, I think MathFan might be leading you into opinions like this deliberately because they are stupid and will see you mocked by every academic in existence, including the Marxists.

I disagree with almost everything Peterson says. That doesn't mean he's unintelligent. It just means we have different opinions on stuff.

I generally agree, though would put him at a 3/10

Good. Personally, the metric I use first looks at 2 staples, and then works to 'branch' & 'twig' areas thereafter. (1) Everyone is born into this life with their own personal 'chessboard'. How sensibly have they played that game? (2) Whether there is evidence of high level of success in areas that they apply themselves in. That is, are they good at what they do when they really try? After (1) & (2), I will analyze other areas, some of which you discussed in your response.

One out of two of the points goes to him for understanding psychology on an academic level

He does not--in fact, this is the first thing I noticed about him upon introduction. There are many examples that could be given to demonstrate this, though perhaps the most significant (and blatantly false) is his position on the matter of Ashkenazi Jew IQ. Peterson claimed the average IQ of Ashkenazi Jews is 115, which, if true, would necessitate for all other Jews on the planet (i.e. non-Ashkenazi) average IQ to be less than 85. See, Israel is 75% Jewish, from which 47.5% are Ashkenazi, making up 36% of the total population. Now, the reported Israeli IQ is 95, and the average reported Jordanian IQ of 84 standing for Arab Israelis, then an Ashkenazi average IQ of 115 would necessarily imply that all other Jews on Earth have an average IQ of 84--lower than African American, and a standard deviation below European whites. Does that sound correct to you? Or, rather, does it sound like a superficial thinker stating common, erroneous talking points without bothering to look into the matter personally, and is also statistically illiterate as he does not possess the requisite learning, nor Left-Brain strength, to interpret what he is looking at (the collective data points)?

the other is for his ability to form arguments and analyse.

This he has above average ability in, yes. Though, that is precisely why it would be intellectually honest to describe himself as a Philosopher pushing his own views/philosophy, rather than claim the authority of science, unwarranted. A person who demonstrates a severe lack of integrity on even one matter puts all other of his work into question.

One thing I've noticed is that he is not good at spotting alt accounts or telling when he is being trolled. His intelligence seems to be very technical and he is not very good at social "mindfuck" games or things such as manipulation.

This is a fair criticism, as I tend be naive in this regard--it leaves me particularly vulnerable to Gamma personality types (i.e. manipulative masterminds & deceivers who often pose as Betas or Deltas for leverage).

You seem to be entirely unaware of how unreasonable a claim that is.

I was being more than reasonable. Jordan Peterson himself has claimed publicly to have an IQ of above 150, which is quite believable based only on his considerably strong verbal command of English, independent of his academic qualifications. Hence, I was exceedingly generous in assuming you have an IQ ten points above average. In reality, I genuinely doubt this is the case.

For somebody who calls themselves MathFan, you don't appear to have a very strong understanding of maths, do you?
