Analysis of Jordan Peterson's interview with Cathy Newman

Peterson argues that social hierarchy is a natural result of human evolution, and that competition and inequality are naturally determined. He also says that men and women are genetically programmed to behave in certain ways and there is nothing we can do about that.

I debunk all of that in this video. It blows my mind that this guy has such a massive following, considering how flawed and easy to pick apart his arguments are.
