That's now how any of this works. The plan enables servos to raise their take from a litre of fuel to $1.20 without worrying about the fuel excise driving people away. Servo profits will sky rocket.

Yeah see one thing you will typically find that is universal amongst respectable Australians is a disdain for people for gently caress kids. Unfortunately the Liberal party and Murdoch media are totally devoid of any respectability these days and probably get into a bit of it themselves tbh.

And the first 6 or seven subsequent uploads are all pandering to the same right wing nutters? I think ABC's social media manager is in on the joke. Almost all of the viewer tweets that were displayed on that episode were mocking and dismissive in tone.

Peterson's deliberately vague and waffling style is pretty much impossible to summarily debunk because he throws out so much bullshit that it's impossible to address it all, and if you pass over even a single point his supporters will jump on that as proof he's right and you're wrong.

Don't engage them. Make fun of them but don't ever try to debate that RWNJ scum, because they will never, ever engage in a reasoned debate. They will shift the goalposts ad infinitum until you get sick of trying and then claim victory. Just call them out for being a sad misogynist and move on.

I saw someone on the train reading the Peterson book, it was 35 degrees and he was wearing a full suit and vest and fedora despite also having some surf brand hot blue backpack and weedy facial hair, it really confirmed what I thought of his supporters

LIVE AMMO ROLEPLAY posted:Jesus how many of your friends are into this nut? My close friends: 0. The host of the party is a clinical psych that hates Peterson but she also can't be hosed engaging with it while trying to have fun. It's interesting because I think Zizek is so entertaining but I'd never really bother talking about him at a birthday party (unless I was with my Marxist hypernerd friends). People that like Peterson seem to think they've discovered something amazing that you genuinely need in your life. I don't know what his trick is. I wish I understood the appeal.

The guy in Sydney is a Christian and I was like fine, but when this one raised it I was like what the gently caress. The book is a bestseller and it's on the recommended shelf in like every book shop. I'm not sure how it's hard to believe that people have read it. E: I don't want to talk about it and this is going on too long. It was just a fresh memory and I don't understand why people are flocking to this stupid self help book.

JBP posted:I don't have any transgender friends. Why does this not surprise me, lmao I read Peterson's book when it came out, didn't know who he was, was vaguely aware of some of the refusal to use preferred pronouns stuff, but thought I'd give it a go. I thought the first half/two-thirds of the book weren't bad as a kind of parable, he mentions some ideas that made some sense and that you have to think about a little bit. Reading through that first section I was definitely thinking along the lines of "this guy has some idea what he's saying", and was warming up to him. In the last half/third of the book though he takes a sharp right turn out of what he can reasonably be expected to know as a shrink, like how your thoughts work and how to build self confidence and poo poo, into loving weird territory like biotruths and gender binaries, and it goes completely off the rails and he reveals himself for the manic crank that he is, trying to push a specific agenda. By the time I'd finished reading I'd written him off as a guy trying to ride the crest of social media fame with a self-help book, and I think that's pretty much what happened. I'd be interested to know how far through the book the people you know have read, and whether they've looked into any of the videos he uploads online. I'd think that people would begin to realise that he's a loving moron if they made it that far. I hope.

Zizek needs to work on his messaging while Petersen comes up with dumb messages dumb boys can pick up. Zizeks messaging is more like approaching a 15 year old boy and yelling at him why he prefers the heat death of the universe over dismantling capitalism. Petersen will just tell the boy nothing is his fault, society is female, wash your dick and clean your room.
