He is a psychologist and author from Canada. Whether he is good or bad is an opinion and one you should decide based on what you learn about him. He is often labeled as a conservative but like most things it isn’t as black and white as that. He has expressed support for left leaning ideas like universal healthcare, and wealth redistribution and been a critic of ideas like postmodern feminism, white privileg, trans rights, and environmentalism. His Wikipedia page does a good job of explaining his views and the controversies that surround his ideas.
Hope that helps.
Edit: Seems like there are some on here who would prefer OP was told what to think and enjoy living in an echo chamber. I personally hate him and think he has done a lot of harm to society, but I believe OP can come to that conclusion on their own with a small amount of research.
For the libs, if you had an alternative explanation to evolution that was even 80% as valid as evolution, it might be worth considering to refute it or to see if anything might be gained from it.
If your explanation is alien cosmic ray bit flipping, which provides no useful information, then we have every right to dismiss it out of hand.
For that to be a justifiable strategy you need to exist in a context where that creates victory, and we do not. You must create propaganda to counter propaganda, rhetoric that meets rhetoric and the listener where they are, and most people don’t give a shit about rationality or ideological consistency or even factuality.
And some of what you said is blatantly false: he is conservative, and while he might like Canada’s healthcare system he also doesn’t like it, he actively hates wealth redistribution, and what he criticizes and how categorizes him pretty solidly in the fascist camp, and where not fascist then something even weirder (usually just ‘drug-addled’) but no less right-wing.

It’s not an echo chamber if its true. That’s like saying the scientific community is an echo chamber for accepting evolution.

Because he fundamentally doesn’t believe in wealth distribution, he believes in private property rights
