Peterson's 12 Rules For Life, have you heard of this?

He refers to women "as chaos" routinely once he's brought it up. There's loads of parts all about it, and how they're so unfair to the poor males. It's painful to me reading the book, I wanted to give you a clear example. If you don't find the style he's using there offensive, I doubt more examples would convince you. All I can say is get the book for yourself and come to your own conclusions.

Well, I'm perfectly happy agreeing with much of what he's said and done, which I strongly agree with, and discounting or disagreeing with other positions. I've watched a couple videos where he's addressing the God idea, and I don't find his definitions or his approach to that issue particularly compelling. And Tizheruk is right-- the respect that we generally have for you as a cool-minded person adds credibility to what you're saying that I wouldn't assume in his case. I suppose I'll have to buy the book myself and see what I can make of it, but I'm starting to suspect I may not enjoy it that much after all.

My opinion of humanity overall is fairly negative. More and more, I'm convinced by Khemikal and others in their arguments about free will being illusory, and the "Well, what then?" is best answered by evolution-- we act as we do because that's what we are.

I would say the majority of women ARE cunts. This is not exactly because they are female, but because human beings are petty, spiteful and selfish, and are so very much because of the success of their gradually-increasing cuntiness through millions of years of evolution. I would also say that the majority of men are fuckface assholes, for the same reason. So all this human drama that's unfolding about gender issues and so on is really just 4 billion cunts duking it out with 4 billion fuckface assholes in a pile of shit. I dislike about half the people I meet almost instantly, and I'm sure that at least that many hate me-- and boy, do we all deserve each other. And I think we all know this. For everyone woman his is enraged by misogynistic words used by men, I'd bet a hundred dollars she's thought, "That bitch in the supermarket was such a cunt" at least once or twice a week.

That's also why we can have the technology to save the world, but instead we use cat memes to explain why we don't care to bother. I feel sorry for all the other animals that have to stand by helplessly while we find new ways to fuck them.
