He can't, even for one split second, hide or look past his hatred for Trudeau.

In case anyone doesn't know what's going on, a Conservative MP denounced Trudeau over this whole convoy bullshit, and he responded by saying that if conservatives want to stand with those people who wave swastikas or confederate flags (which have been seen quite a bit at these convoy protests), they can do that, but he's going to stand for the rest of Canada. So the MP fires back that she's Jewish and she can't believe he'd accuse her of standing with swastikas.

Meanwhile, I'm over here wondering why she, a Jewish politician, is attacking the guy who called out her party for supporting the protests, rather than attacking whichever of her constituents is siding with the anti-semitic protesters :psyduck:

He read it the weekend before his big debate with Zizek, although he said he was quoting it when he discussed the dictatorship of the proletariat, a phrase and arguably a concept that does not appear in the communist manifesto. Jorp completely misunderstands its meaning and tries to infer what it means by using a lay definition of dictatorship, suggesting that the point of communism is for the poor to get revenge on the rich by ruling over them as dictators.

Which is a little weird, given that Jorp and his ilk are incredibly attached to 'the individual' and how you 'can't put people in boxes' and are against 'identity politics'. He worked himself up into a weepy mess on a vlog, mourning the death of individual in Western society. Can't remember why; probably because a Marvel film demonstrated achievement by teamwork or something.

They should love this idea of individual experience and being able to define your own reading of the world and not being restricted by norms and generalisations. But JP is really hot on social norms, rigid definitions, binaries and hierarchies. Because it benefits people like him as individuals.

I think it is because 'individualism' is a 'manly' concept, but deviation from the established norm challenges 'manliness'. So he rails against the very thing that he uses.

Much like with UK politics the missing piece of the puzzle is unfortunately probably Zionism.

Basically the core of standard conservative 'rugged individualism' is that you can be an independent individual so long as you exactly follow a rigid set of societal standards no matter whether they are actually realistic, healthy, or available.

He basically told someone to "go die then" in a discussion about overpopulation or something, I think it's right there in the screen cap. Of course he didn't say exactly that and will shrug and do that incredibly disingenuous thing that he does, but I think the College of Psychologists is going to see right through that.

I'm not trying to be reactionary or anything but there's very little else to take from his tweet, other than "killing yourself is a solution for you", and that is a whole pile of :stare:

If he or anyone flat-out stated that in the tweet, there would be hell to pay. I think and hope the same applies here, even if he worded it differently.

I mean he also published a book where a whole chapter purported to be an invitation to be a good listener, but actually was just a long rant about how one of his clients was a worthless waste of space who probably didn't even get raped because she was also an alcoholic and being too drunk to say no doesn't really count.

He also hates children. A good amount of 12 Rules is about how it's not only good but necessary to beat your kids otherwise they'll never respect you. Hell one of the rules is specifically "Don't allow your kids to do anything you hate" and goes into extremly strange tangents about yelling at a friend's toddler that he WILL go to sleep right this instance or he will regret it and other equally concerning anecdotes. These are written in a way that makes it clear that Peterson thinks he is the perfect parent with no parenting faults.
