A trademark trait of depression is honing in on the negative, interpreting things negatively, tunnel visioning on what is negative and being imperviou...

Humans aren't driven by logic, they're driven by emotion and logic usually just accommodates how people feel. I don't think suicide is illogical, I th...

Am I to understand that your solution is to... demand that people behave themselves? BLM and Antifa are using free speech too, what do you suggest be ...

Whether people do or do not see it that way is just another part of the story they're telling, about themselves and their lives. A fiction book is a f...

You logically justify your depression like others logically justify their happiness, truthfully, neither of you are correct. It's just that you can't ...

It is near-universal that people want to live. I do not think people want to live due to "the good things", it's just normal, healthy psychology to wa...

We are storytellers who tell stories that could only have been told by us. Imperfect stories that don't capture the full truth and can't. If we were o...

The issue with social media is that it has empowered a very small minority to have a very large voice, it's really got not much to do with larger soci...

You're a human, who cares about things being in their "natural state", complaining about humans treating dogs without compassion, thinking only of the...
January 28, 2021 at 12:27
Not really, the reality is that when your dog misbehaves, the dog is the one who is punished. A better comparison for humans would be for example, whe...

What do you think about the nationalisation of land and lending of land like what exists in Singapore? Or advocating for a smart tax system and econom...

Reusing my criticisms of you again? Okay, these three pieces of evidence are what you're sticking with, lmao. Yep, he is saying women should be forced...

You are the most uncharitable, unreliable narrator, I have come across and I am in the middle of telling you as such. If you think that characterising...

I knew this but I really need the context on why Peterson made the various claims about "these housewives". Do you know anything about that?
January 23, 2021 at 15:34
I didn't claim to be an expert on Peterson, I just said I'm very familiar. I don't know the context, who are "these" suburban housewives, I imagine he...

You're logically minded but the logic you're using, about reproduction and survival, has led you to a depressing conclusion. Your species doesn't need...
January 23, 2021 at 07:21
No... What I meant was the "effort to dismiss you by giving you this label". There is a serious difference between the average anti-prejudice/discrimi...

Thanks, I'll check it out If I am wrong, that'd just be mislabeling, what logic is at play there? I don't study the terms, I just hear the terms being...

You're such a hypocrite, you are the one poster who is most egregious in this area. You have on numerous occasions called people "right-wing" and accu...

Did you just parrot back the very same thing I just said to you? Call me a fascist, alt-right, racist, I don't care. If anyone on this forum hasn't le...
January 22, 2021 at 11:53
The evidence you "dug up" refuted the very thing I was claiming you had spoken untruly about. Why is this not a contradiction in your eyes? Every bit ...

You wish to label me alt-right even though I say I despise the alt-right because you think it sounds right. In the very same post that you criticise m...
January 21, 2021 at 22:44
Umm, are you kidding me? If I can't avoid this comment when I literally condemn the alt-right in the last comment, then it's a lost cause. You really ...

I don't know if I've been misunderstood or what but I felt that this was the point I was arguing, I agree with your conclusions. You just argued that ...
January 21, 2021 at 13:52
To hear such criticism of this argument format from you of all people... I assume you are just rephrasing the comments about Marxism. As I already ind...

I don't like the alt-right, I really despise their ideology and reject it as strongly as you do. I feel similarly about intersectional feminism, at le...
January 21, 2021 at 12:16
It doesn't matter that you "specifically" explained your narrative, I asked for any evidence. If you don't have any, that's fine, I was just asking. J...

Are you trying to suggest that a large percentage of JP's base was alt-right? If so, do you have any evidence for this and if not, why are you talking...
January 21, 2021 at 10:35
I suppose that makes sense. JP really likes focusing on personal responsibility, that seems to me to be the central theme of his philosophy. He believ...
January 21, 2021 at 10:01

Hats off to the elite, they got us good.

Yet the list of potential ulterior motives is much longer than that. You asked "is it altruistic" and the answer is at a minimum "not necessarily". Fr...
