Holy hell Blonde

Did blonde backtrack on her comments regarding Peterson? I stopped listening the past couple weeks because that was the most alt right bullshit ive heard come from her mouth. Feel bad not listening to matt, but I can’t listen to someone say that someone else who put their career on the line for 2 years straight in defense of western values is ‘no use to us anymore’ because he made some ill informed tweets

Unsubbed her after 2 years of following as well

Not playing these ideological games

Ironic that you put it that way, because that's pretty much what he did.

What

It was in the context of a string of like a hundred tweets iirc and he later admitted it wasn’t a good idea to tweet that

But did he do that because it was a bad idea to tweet it, or because of the backlash?

He’s a Canadian psychologist looking into american politics and making bad judgements i admit

The idea that someone who has faced that kind of persecution themselves would suggest that we, in effect, throw someone in a similar situation to the wolves is a pretty big betrayal, and it doesn't get made all better by him saying 'lol, jk, sorry.'

You also can't claim to be for western values and preach what amounts to gnosticism

Cause you would know. Arent you still a teenager?

Regardless of what you all think of Peterson, I’d rather take his side than agree with blondes horseshoe bullshit

Who is that addressed to?

Constantine trying to undermine all of Peterson’s work with a casual comment even though he’s basically a kid

I wont claim to be for ‘your’ version of western values then

He's not wrong about it though. Peterson was always at his weakest when the topic veered too close to anything religious.

I won't tolerate heresy from Peterson or anyone else

Lol

I'm not entirely sure where the similarities are between the Peterson-Kavanaugh situation. I mean if you look at the 1 sentence prompt of being demanded to step down because of the outrage mob, sure. I get it. Then you look at the Tale of the Tape and you see where the dynamics change. Peterson: University professor, Social Engagement with him is optional, and was put on the chopping block because of protest of an upcoming (now on-the-books) law. Kavanaugh: (at the time, aspiring to be) Supreme Court Justice, Social Engagement with him is mandatory due to the nature of his government position), and was put on the chopping block based on an accusation that can neither be proven nor disproven (I still believe she's lying but I can't provide evidence to support that). The nature of their societal position as well as the reason they were demanded to be crucified are not the same by any means. I understand and agree that Peterson's probably in the wrong here. I don't think it's unreasonable to see that he does address a valid concern and mind you that this was on Twitter. Find me a well-thought out political position on Twitter and after that, by me a lottery ticket.

Well, I can see how Peterson could rationalize the comment. Getting Bret to resign would placate the left, but that wouldn’t mean they won the Supreme Court position. Trump could have nominated another constitutionalist and voted that person in. Peterson’s tweet may have been to try and keep the left at bay. I’ll admit that it’s a chamberlain like approach, but it’s still a strategy. Some people raised concerns about Bret because of his previous views that probably violate the 4th amendment (the patriot act I think). That’s something to think about.

Morning all!

Sup.

Chilling before football starts

Watching the Browns game?

Correct.

But not a Browns fan

You can placate the Left by never giving an inch and beating them.

You can't placate them by giving them victory after victory when their arguments are lies and slander

Much like the Browns

🤔

Wait, are a Browns fan?

Lmao no. I've never watched a sports event in my life

I just know they still suck tho

Lol.

This game will be the 3rd sports events I watched today.

I kinda like sports

However, this is my fourth year in a fantasy football league. As you can imagine, I've never one a game

I'm actually not even sure how I win points

But they invited me every year

I'd explain how scoring works, but I don't know your leagues rules.
