I'm not one for self help gurus, endearing foibles are the spice of life.

Ya... pretty much...

We got nothing.

So it really wasn't a debate at all. Just an admission.

At least he admits he doesn't have the answers, unlike absurdly holier than thou know it all Peterson.

Zizek's critique of the left is bang on, Peterson just drones on from the pulpit; meh.

Zizek's Perverts Guide is pure genius, I wouldn't give you a nickel for Peterson's laughable self help book.

I would say that Peterson's critique of the left was better articulated... and certainly accurate.
Zizek didn't showcase much of his material in the debate... he just seemed to nitpick here and there...
I'm sure the debate didn't do him justice.

Pure genius. Psychoanalytic deconstruction. It's right in your wheelhouse.
