To the OP:
Jordan B. Peterson is not easily pigeonholed because his thinking is expansive and nuanced. As such it is easy to project your own angels and demons into what he presents. Here is list I found of topics he frequently discusses...
The evolutionary basis for human morality, social structure, and individual and collective psychology
Comparative mythology; cross-cultural archetypal stories and narratives
Practical self development advice
Ideology, belief, and the importance of free thought and speech
Jungian psychology, with emphasis on archetypes and the “shadow”
Anti-communism and anti-postmodernism/Neo-Marxism
Insights from experience in clinical practice
Christian revivalism
Practical implications of personality psychology, psychometrics and IQ
Nietzsche, Dostoyevsky, Solzhenitsyn, lobsters and more…
This seems pretty accurate. To my ears he is a Jungian through and through with the attending insights that are simultaneously unsurprising and profoundly insightful if you like that kind of thing. Very similar to Joseph Campbell in the 1990's.
