Disco Pope posted:I never quite "got" Red Scare - I had a bit of a Cumtown/Chapo phase and I don't think every leftist can or should be those guys, but I do think they were important against the backdrop of #imwithher and pastel Instagram infographics style politics and the rise of the Peterson of this world. Red Scare just seemed to be operating on a level of insularity and irony that I couldn't crack, just two people sarcastically going "yuuuuuuh" at each other. The Chapo dudes and those of their ilk actually sincerely participated in the Bernie campaign, DSA, Justice Dems. And the crushing and salting of any impact of those groups probably contribute to your feeling of irrelevancy.

Shageletic posted:Eh disagree. Criticism of liberals from a leftist perspective is different than whatever the hell glenn is, as you point out, comes from a libertarian backgrounds. Oh, no arguments with this. It doesn't help that there are those in the first paragraph who deliberately obfuscate their position as being leftist, tho.

The thing about liberalism is that it’s incompatible with any other political position, so fascists will sound like leftists when they diagnose the problems with liberalism. You have to listen to the causes and solutions they suggest in order to realize what’s going on.

Case in point:Jorp.

Another Bill posted:I simply don't listen to fascists and get aggressively confrontational with them instead You raise a good point, which for me at least, is that I don't really know any fascists because I cut them off pretty fast. I do know several struggling guys who take up MMA and post "inspirational" videos with quotes from Peterson over photos of lions and swelling library piano music. Some of them pull-up and some of them get into toxic poo poo and I boot them (these are mostly acquaintances at best, maybe guys from school or three jobs back, that kind of thing). Generally, I have sympathy for them at first, because they're lost and grabbing at what seems like answers and sometimes they're able to apply critical thinking. Out of acquaintances, the ones who get hosed off with me tend to be the nose ring and dungaree teachers with craft-beer and beard "handsome men" boyfriends i met when I played roller derby when I'll share slides about how some pees are also poos who seem really into the aesthetics and language of social justice, without the actual social justice part.

Geek Social Fallacies don't just apply to geeks, basically. Fascists are a bit of a funny case here given literally their entire movement is built around this, the aesthetics and language are the point in themselves, and their actual beliefs are literally just that they should be justified in being the shittiest possible person, dressed up in endless meaningless rhetoric.

I don't know, Real Housewives? Is that still a show? They confuse dislike with critique.

See also how modern fascists in particular are completely obsessed with pornography, and believe it shows the hidden truths of the world.

Of course the strongest man in Israel is interviewing for the brokebrain dipshit who anti-Semites love. It's not like we actually have any principles, should I start working on mastering circuitous bloated arguments that lead nowhere and then bursting to tears?

Think I mentioned this ITT before, but I was surprised to learn Jorp lives close to my neighbourhood (he's somewhere near Christie Pits). I always figured he had some McMansion in 'Sauga. I would love to antagonize him in person. Especially with a nice fakeout; *gasp* "Doctor Peterson! ... You SUCK!!!" Honestly though I doubt he ever leaves his house.
