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

[bennyboy]

OFC you are.  You're a victim even if you fight back..but I think it's interesting that you're trying to rehabilitate this view as soon as I frame it in right wing paranoia speak. 

I've already framed it this way, several pages ago.

 
So you aren't being white genocided or identity politiced to death........?  Imagine that.  

I can't take responsibility for saying any of that. I'm saying that I've been on the receiving end of identity politics, that the effects are real, and that this puts me against much of the "left."

Although, I frankly don't see them as the left, because when ideas are forced to be accepted at the point of social consequence, we're talking about a fascism of the left, not the supportive, loving laborers that I grew up knowing as democrats.

You virtue signaled and got nothing.  Why do you think that is?  

Because it's a pointless and valueless endeavor, and I shouldn't have done it.

The most dishonest person is one who pretends even to himself to have feelings, because he's been told he's supposed to.  And there's a lot of that, in every walk of life.  So in order for me to speak with real integrity, I have to say-- I simply don't give a shit about any of these issues.  Can't make me.  Not gonna do it.

You think so?  Maybe..and I'm just spitballing..but it might actually be the case that people who say they're disgusted by right wing shit..... actually are disgusted by rightwing shit? 

I didn't say that many left wing people aren't sincere about their politics. I'm saying that if I pretend to identify with identity-based politics of the kind we're talking about, "I" would be insincere and dishonest.

Well..sure, if you really are a dick then yeah..you should own it. But if you're a dick because dishonest people have manipulated you into thinking insane things by leveraging your pathological phobias.........

I know what I like and dislike, and how I want to live. That's my political position. Fuck the college PC crowd for covering their incompetency in PC dogma. And fuck the American right for putting a fucking orangutan in the office of the president.

"Dick" is just shorthand for "refuse to adopt my world view, and unapologetic about it."

You think the left wing would bring education and music and making money to a screeching halt? That's.......incredibly interesting.  

No, I don't think that nor did I say it. I think that if I were to involve myself in left wing identity politics, which I care little about except when it inconveniences me-- if I were to INVEST myself in those ideas and causes in order not to be called a dick, then that would bring MY personal growth to a screeching halt. I have way more on my plate than I can handle, and I pump out achievements that make me happy for about an hour before I go the next item on my list. That's my "way of the warrior."
