Caltrops - Jordan Peterson - Hero or Hate Crime?





	[quote name="Casual Man of the basement forums"][quote name="Mischief Maker"]I love how quickly you went from: "Hey bro, I'm like a super chill casual guy who doesn't have a dog in this fight and I'm just kinda curious why the left is so intolerant of this Peterson guy." to "You know what? Actually I <I>am</I> on Peterson's side! And you know what's really funny? The people who make fun of him! You hear that, snowflakes?! When you compare daddy to Don Knotts, <I>we're</I> the ones laughing at <I>you!!!</I>[/quote] That was your perception, I've been consistent on Peterson since we started arguing about him in other threads. [quote name="Elsewhere I"]Peterson sells olde tyme religion wrapped up in the practical application of basic "wash your ass before you attempt to split an atom" problem navigation. Affirms that your existence is perforce the only thing of value you have and the only value you can bring to others, so it must be examined and (to one's ability) optimized before engaging meaningfully with the exterior world. He also has a very high verbal IQ and the ability to temper his bullshit with humility and deft countersignalling, very powerful traits for media expression. Despite the fact that Peterson is a genuinely flawed human being (as are we all.) This has caused a reaction that I can only describe, personally, as hilarious. I had expected him to slam into the mountain months ago, but here he is, making the TYT/MM circle of the venn diagram incrementally more insane by the day.[/quote] I'll plainly admit I'm more on his side than yours, obviously or I wouldn't engage you on these fucking threads. You are a hundred miles left of me. I've also, obviously been baiting you on them because I suspect your distress/disclosure ratio regarding him might be hiding something funny. I then, generously, disclosed my intention was to coax comedy from the juxtaposition of your (though I wasn't specific) positions against his own, despite the fact that the motherfucker is whack as fuck on a personal level. You constantly provide. [quote name="Mischief Maker"]"AAAAAH!!! BOYS HAVE PEE PEES AND GIRLS HAVE WEE WEES!!! DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND SCI- oh shit! I got so pissed I posted the wrong video."[/quote] You brought up the Chad 'n Stacie meme, which directly addresses his positions on evolutionary biology. So I took shots at the neo-leftist narrative. Yes, you clearly couldn't address that so you capitalize on the fact that I wrote that shit while I was having my first cup of coffee and confused the Weinstein/Heyring/Rogan interview from memory. That was your "coup de gras." I am constantly willing to be educated by a thoughtful presentation of new insight. You have the capacity to talk me into thinking his is the bigger clownshoes by compelling argument. Instead you avoid the Weinstein/Heying interview, which I believe is far and away among the most compassionate discussions of modern concepts of gender while still being scientific beyond reproach, to deliver an embarrassing "GOTCHA!" punchline that doesn't land. Disappointing. I FUCKING LAID OUT THE BREADCRUMBS, SHIT, I'M TRYING TO PLAY TENNIS HERE, NOT JUST FIRE SHOTS AT YOUR JUNK. [/quote]
