The Human Touch Revealing All that is Real
WATCH: Jordan Peterson Tells Bill Maher The Left Got ‘Oppressor’ Narrative Wrong On Israel And Consequences Will ‘Unfold Pretty Brutally’

Dr. Jordan B. Peterson stunned Bill Maher's live audience earlier this month when he declared that leftists got their typical "oppressor, oppressed" narrative wrong on the Israel-Hamas war and that the consequences will unfold "brutally."
The clinical psychologist and Daily Wire+ host told Maher that leftists have decided Palestinians are the "victims" and, therefore, "morally righteous."
"One of the things the Democrats also have to pay the price for, I would say, is their absolute refusal to draw a line between the moderate Democrats and the extremists. They're completely incapable of doing that," Peterson said during his November 10 appearance on HBO's "Real Time with Bill Maher."
Peterson said he has asked 40 members of Congress the same question, "When does the Left go too far?"
"Well we certainly bloody well saw it in the last month, didn't we? Cause they got the oppressor, oppressed narrative a little mucked up, we might say. And the consequences of that are going to unfold pretty brutally over the next few months," Peterson said.
Peterson said that in the context of the war between Israel and Palestinian terror group Hamas, "leftists have already decided the Palestinians are the victims."
"If you're a victim, then you're morally righteous. And even more conveniently, if you stand for the victim then you're morally righteous regardless of what you do with your own life," Peterson said.
On October 7, Hamas launched deadly terrorist attacks on Israel that killed more than 1,200 people, including women and children. Israel has responded with airstrikes and a ground offensive.
The problematic worldview festers on university campuses, Peterson explained.
"Part of the reason that you see all this foolishness on university campuses too is because people have bought this idiot meta-Marxism, which is that the way to look at every social relationship that people ever have is through the lens of power," Peterson said.
"And we can put that squarely at the feet of the universities as far as I'm concerned - marriage is a patriarchal institution, and business is nothing but oppression, and you have to view every single situation that emerged historically as oppressor vs. oppressed," the best-selling author continued. "And then once you get that, which you can get in about two minutes if you sit in a course that teaches that sort of thing, you have a lens to moralize about the whole world through."
"And that's at the hands of the radical Left too, Bill," he told Maher.
