As for rage, most of what Peterson teaches and argues for is aimed at controlling rage not embracing it. I don't get this idea he's some sort of incel icon because all the problems with incels is the stuff he warns against - taking no accountability, always blaming others, never trying to better yourself, having toxic friendships etc. He tries to get people to lead their lives in a way whereby they don't succumb to rage or despair

Repression, well I don't know about that. Child psychology might not be his forte

On the final point, I think Peterson has talked about the killing done in Christianity's name before but yeah if you're anti-religious you probably won't like the fact that Christianity does influence him quite a lot

I think that's what people are saying though that yes he's done good things for men on the one hand but he's also on the other made very questionable/could be interpreted as pretty incel like (and pushing responsibility for violent men on to women) statements too
