Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

He's not confused about what fascism is, he knows and he wants it. Just like any fascist, you can't take what he says at face value, it's all trolling games like the Sartre quote.
With Peterson, he did make himself sick with that “carnivore” diet. He’s been huffing his own fumes so long that I think it’s fucked with his cognitive abilities.
I’ve listened to his class lectures - I do not understand how he earned a doctorate, and I do not understand why anyone taken the shit that comes out of his mouth seriously. It’s just misinterpreted Jung with some Manichean/Christian influence.
No he got sick from having a paradoxical reaction to benzos and then trying to quit them by going into a medically induced coma in Russia where I GUARANTEE YOU the fsb undoubtedly took blackmail video of him cheating on his wife. His wife had terminal kidney cancer but then miraculously recovered as well while on the carnivore diet so I doubt it is all that harmful.
I heard Peterson described as Joe Rogan with an education and vocabulary, who occasionally has a cry lol
For sure, he wasn't the smartest to begin with and he's gone downhill. Even so, he's not so dumb that he doesn't know what he wants is to subjugate women and non-whites, and he will say whatever he thinks will make that happen regardless of whether he believes it or it even sounds plausible.
That's it exactly. JBP, JD Vance, etc., play word games of rhetoric to get what they want. It's like they are defence lawyers and morality is a legal system they are trying to game - they argue whatever just to win.
