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

Equity is a murderous doctrine..in his opinion.  He doesn't make any bones about it.  He doesn't deny it.  It's his entire act.  

He felt like sharing that in response to a tweet about a womens march, and how we all support womens rights.  Somehow...that's going to get us all killed - just like it did in soviet russia!  (lol)

Is he a political scientist or historian?  No.

No, I set off to google her, because it's the only part of that sentence which can be googled.  I wanted to see why he would say such a thing.  I still don't know why, because I haven't had time to research her, or really even to learn what he means by murderous equity.

I suspect he's talking about a very deep hatred of identity politics, and specifically of communist identity politics that have lead to a loss of free speech and the deaths of hundreds of millions of people.

If so, I'm not sure how he can draw any parallel to this person or the Liberal government of Canada.  It seems like a major stretch indeed.

One thing I can infer is that he has a deep hatred for the Liberal party, including Justin Trudeau, who is an absolute darling of the left.  (Even I have a bit of a hard-on for Trudeau tbh, because he makes Canada look so fucking cool and awesome compared to Trump.)

It doesn't say what he says it does.  Fact.  

Quote:2)  Why the fuck would he respond to a women's march in that way?  What do the words mean, and what, exactly, is his beef with the woman he called out?  (we could actually learn why they despise each other so much)
Because he's a fucking loon..Benny.  I keep telling you this...and it doesn't have anything in specific to do with -her-......stahp

Quote:3)  Why does he keep referring to women in his book as "chaos"?  And why are there so many articles and interviews with academic women who seem so solidly interested in, and in support of, his ideas, if he's such a woman-hating pig?  (we could see what those female academics SAY in their overt agreement with his stance, even his stance on women and men in society)
Because that's how it's conceptualized in many examples of religious literature.  Another of his fetishes.  

Quote:All of these might reveal him to be as you've portrayed him.  But until you do the actual groundwork, I have to believe that you're just making shit up, i.e. projecting your own anxieties and insecurities as a liberal white man onto a bunch of out-of-context one-liners.
You don't have to believe that..you want to..and you're wrong.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight.

Benny seems stuck on this idea that members of a group supporting him does not mean hes's against that group.

I've told you multiple times what he means..I've been laughing at him about it for almost the entirety of this thread..even.

Then he is exactly what I've been telling you he is.  Since I've been telling you that he's a loon who says crazy shit out of a fear of cryptomarxists doing things to him that no one is doing to him.

For the record...and I find it amusing that I'm correcting yet another peterson kinda guy on this..but I'm not actually a liberal.

All credit to jorg, I enjoy this one so much I don't feel the need to quibble..I'm a loopy techno-fascist.  Don't bother goggling it,  the definition won't fit it's use in context, lol. I understand why people think I am, though..since I happen to agree with the libs on social issues and the general idiocy and indecency of the gop.

No doubt.  With this, I can't disagree.

Let's read it, then, and see if what you are saying IS a fact.

Nope, it's because the internet is a pile of unsubstantiated bullshit, and I always assume that unless someone can provide support for their position. So far, you have a lot of metacommentary, one dubious link from Twitter (though it is kind of a problem for me), and nothing else.

If you could provide another half-dozen links, or a couple really solid passages, or a single really compelling video clip, then we'd be done here.
