I Never Thought I’d Be This Disappointed In Jordan Peterson
Ashley (Kimber)

(snipped)

I just saw this on my Twitter feed. I’m dumbfounded. I’m legitimately speechless.

WHAT?

So basically if confirmed… we should capitulate to the screaming Democrats to confirm that screaming bloody murder and STOOPING LOWER THAN WE THOUGHT WAS EVER POSSIBLE gets you what you want?!

Never saw this website before. Their point seems well-taken. Sometimes, even folks whose views we admire let us down greatly.

Just sometimes? There are no perfect people and can't be because your perfect and my perfect can't perfectly align.

I don't think Peterson fully understands the American right, and has bought into some of the propaganda from the left with regard to the right.  But - he does a good job of keeping us honest.  Some of the things we do are boneheaded and lacking logic and integrity.

I used to be a regular reader of the Chicks on the Right, but then Daisy and Mock hired two millenial J-school grads to write for them, and I quickly tired of the "He's just totes with the idea!!" phraseology.

Happy Saturday, Fred.

I slept all day yesterday. I was extremely ill for a week, then worked a 40 hour week in 3 days.

I had another thought on this topic. It seems like he is saying it would be enough to count this as a psychological win instead of a real, tangible win for Conservatism.

People (Conservatives) have tended towards fighting a more ideological war than an actual put your money where your mouth is and keep it there war.

Information is useless unless it is put to use.

That's a great point, Fred.  I get terribly frustrated with those of us who think fighting on the internet is somehow an adequate contribution on their part.

You feeling OK now?

I'm tired. I had some kind of stomach virus and didn't eat much of anything, except a few crackers, for four days. Didn't get much rest/sleep and then did three long work days. Too much stress also. So instead of half crazy been pretty much full on crazy.

If you mean fishing, it is cold and raining. Maybe tomorrow. But in bed with a heat pad watching tv. I am eating, too.

I think I understand Peterson's meaning on the complexity. To put it simply. Anything (information) that exposes a lie isn't, or doesn't necessarily mean, it is the truth. Objective vs subjective.

Interesting point.  I'll have to think on it a bit.

Because Peterson makes strong arguments against the New Leftist social justice, progressivism, many mistakenly call him a "conservative."

The IDW is not a "conservative" happening, despite efforts (by liberal mainstream critics) to characterize it as such.

I am surprised he offered an opinion on Kavanaugh.

Yes, I found that very surprising too.  But, he is very concerned about the trajectory of our society right now and he may see this event as being significant to comment on.

I have always regarded Peterson as a sort of conservative liberal, i.e. a liberal in the classical sense.  (Overall, I still like him--but I agree with your assessment that he doesn't yet understand the American right.)

Tom, your comment is not on the topic of the IDW and has been deleted.  Do not bring personal insults and grudges in here.  I hope you understand why this is a grudge-free, insult-free zone.

JBP has stated that based on his training and experience, he believes he can tell when someone has been hurt versus when they're lying and just claiming harm for political purposes (e.g., whether "the right pronoun" really is important to a supposedly aggrieved party).

Perhaps what he's saying here is that he believes her, based on his training and experience.

Peterson is a Classical Liberal, as was Milton Friedman and others.


Mny similar figures, go back and forthbetween libertarian, and slassical figure. Larry Elder being one such.

David Rubin who toured with Peterson, now identifies as classical liberal.
