No jordan peterson thread

that's the unabomber manifesto and his definition of leftist in this instance is rather similar to peterson's ""post modern" progressive sjws"
>But what is leftism? During the first half of the 20th century leftism could have been practically identified with socialism. Today the movement is fragmented and it is not clear who can properly be called a leftist. When we speak of leftists in this article we have in mind mainly socialists, collectivists, "politically correct" types, feminists, gay and disability activists, animal rights activists and the like. But not everyone who is associated with one of these movements is a leftist. What we are trying to get at in discussing leftism is not so much a movement or an ideology as a psychological type, or rather a collection of related types. Thus, what we mean by "leftism" will emerge more clearly in the course of our discussion of leftist psychology
peterson thinks the same even if he hasn't explicitly said so

this has nothing to do with anything. just because two people say things about leftism doesn't mean they have anything in common. you might as well just call him a nazi.

peterson has quite a lot to say about collectivism, oversocialisation and feelings of insecurity and inferiority, you're just completely blind to it if you can't recognice that

still doesn't make any sense to compare him to a mentally deranged terrorist.

Teddy is more lucid than you will ever be, delete this post and then yourself

first, people discover (x). these are generally decent people.

then they make good strong posts on Veeky Forums about (x). second rate people see these posts, see they are good, and then go see (x). they probably like him, and now a good handful of people are talking about him on the chans.

there is a third wave of appreciation, but, more importantly, at this point, the general riff raff and average idiot of Veeky Forums, of which there are far more than either of the previous two groups, react. Primarily they hate on anything anyone likes. and the stuff people dislike too. there's lots of them, so their voice is loud. of course, some of them like (x) too, but they're not smart and do a bad job of liking him. dissuading other people.

the original people who liked him, and the people who appreciate him after those people mention him, get disgusted with Veeky Forums as usual, and stop mentioning him.

shortly thereafter, the hubbub dies down as the retards lose interest.

I guess no one should ever say anything in fear there words might resemble that of a raving crazy person. judge every group by their worst proponents as the old saying goes.

are you canadian or just a faggot

Yes.

And then there's people who are legitimately bad.

he makes me cringe

Sort yourself out.

this

He's just made another video with an Indegogo asking for a further $75,000. I guess the the $29,000 he's making a month from Patreon, the $14.95 for his self help program he plugs every 10 minutes and his salary isn't enough.

I'm starting to think he's just a greedy fuck who's cashing in on his 15 mins of fame.

This, you can tell he's a virgin. I'm right wing, but I don't rant on about it like him. I can imagine he was one of those kids in school that hung around with people, but nobody really liked him.

He doesn't do any favours for his movement by being such an autist. He needs to be more masculine.

The Unabomber was a legitimate genius

>When someone interprets as derogatory almost anything that is said about him (or about groups with whom he identifies) we conclude that he has inferiority feelings or low self-esteem. This tendency is pronounced among minority rights advocates, whether or not they belong to the minority groups whose rights they defend. They are hypersensitive about the words used to designate minorities ... Those who are most sensitive about "politically incorrect" terminology are not the average black ghetto-dweller, Asian immigrant, abused woman or disabled person, but a minority of activists, many of whom do not even belong to any "oppressed" group but come from privileged strata of society. Political correctness has its stronghold among university professors, who have secure employment with comfortable salaries, and the majority of whom are heterosexual, white males from middle-class families.

He saw it all coming 20 years ago

I'm not white and I like radical feminism and other such cuckery. Where should I start with Peterson?

stop shilling this sophist hack

Sorry, I don't think he finished the suicide guide yet.

My bad. Meant to put an [>inb4 kys] in my post. That's a pretty cat.

Leftism changed after the fall of the Berlin wall.
The end of the soviet union was one of the most pivotal points in history not only to leftism but the world.
The capitalist dorks even called it the end of history.
So what that leftism morph into.
Nothing but useful idiots for capitalism, neoliberals who trade in identity over workers rights.
The democratic party isnt in the union halls or middle america, they are in hollywood and the sociology department at yale.
So these identity espousing neoliberals help to divide people of the same material conditions, they scream all day about tranny toilets or how black lives matter, while the material conditions of the whole of the lower class decays.
They are managerial and work in favor of the donor class.
They would never let an actual leftist near the presidency.

So, leftism is no longer about workers, or economics, its about feelings, and emotions, and identity.

Dont get it twisted, the republicans play this game too, just with white identity.
Both parties espouse ideinty politics as window dressing while working in favor of oligarchs and the donor class

“As Tanzanian President Julius Nyerere quipped in the 1960s, when he was accused by the US of running a one-party state, ‘The United States is also a one-party state but, with typical American extravagance, they have two of them’.”

So very true.

I started reading Veeky Forums this monday. Already this guy has radically transformed my perception of my life and myself and made we want to be religious.

I started looking at the pronoun videos and it's like they're talking over each other. The only thing he really says on the actual gender issue is something like

> Biological sex and gender does not vary indipendently

Could someone please explain what he means by that? I'm swedish and we only have one word for sex/gender, so that might be hampering my comprehension. Also some background to what those four "layers" of gender is would be nice.

Your biological sex has a huge influence on what you'll identify as. Males will like male things due to their genetics and not simply because they're raised as male, same for females. I'm guessing the context is that he's criticizing people that want others to care about and/or respect their gender identity by publicly informing others of their preferences, but I wouldn't know.

>Males will like male things due to their genetics and not simply because they're raised as male, same for females.

Where does he claim this?

Gender refers to the mental and social aspects of being a man or a woman while sex refers to the physical aspects.
