Jordan Peterson is what a stupid person thinks a smart person sounds like. And, he loves making pronouncements on things about which he's completely ignorant.
My favorite example is when he said that Disney's Little Mermaid is superior to Disney's Frozen because one comes from classical mythology and one was written by SJWs. They were both written by Hans Christian Anderson.
And it's really rich that the alt-Right have made Jordan Peterson their champion. People who claim climate science is bogus are embracing..psychology!
Jordan Peterson is the televangelist of the alt-Right. Like Christina Hoff-Summers, he basically tells his flock what they want to hear and makes a nice living doing it. Fleecing the yokels is always a booming business.
Yes, because people enjoy a good fantasy that meshes with ideological beliefs.
So, let me get this straight -
Sales of a book that supports your worldview is proof that your worldview is correct, but......greater sales of a book that does not support your worldview is also proof that your worldview is correct.
Oh, how I wish I had your perfect ability to surrender to confirmation bias. I've tried it, but having a conscience gets in the way.
You THINK you're buying cookies but you're really getting the annual booster of the mind controlling drugs they put in the cookies.
In my sleepy little California town, the Girl Scouts are selling their cookies directly outside the door of the weed dispensary. HOW DEEP DOES THIS RABBIT HOLE GO?
From everything I've seen about them and their relationship, yes. Robert Mercer is "married" to Rebekah. I think it's one of the reasons Donald Trump was drawn to the Mercers. He understands the "special bond" between an ostensibly wealthy man and his daughter.
I figured out the female lead when the movie of this whole tawdry and treasonous Trump/Russia affair is made. This is the story of the nice-looking young lady who went undercover in the Russian troll farm and exposed them to the world.
"According to Buzzfeed" makes it final, right? Right?
Neither of the two links I provided is to Buzzfeed, and neither story mentions Buzzfeed. What does Buzzfeed have to do with this story or anything I've said?
Putin only tried to murder people in Britain with chemical weapons: Skripal and his daughter are still alive.
I have trouble keeping up with all the new stuff coming out. Isn't there some Russian oligarch whose name began with the letter "B" who was just found dead? He's the guy who was the business partner of the guy Felix Sater who was Cheetolini's business partner in the Trump Soho and the one who babysat L'il Don and Ivanka when they went to Moscow to kiss the ring.
Yeah, there's dead Russians turning up everywhere, and they all happen to be on Putin's enemies list. No wonder President Jackoff is afraid to say anything about sanctions. He's deathly afraid of Putin.
It's getting like the last part of Goodfellas where Henry's all coked up and paranoid and trying to move money and make a deal with the Feds to rat out Paulie and Jimmy while they're running around whacking guys to try to tidy up before their world ends. You gotta admit, it's entertaining in a Shakespearean/Gang That Couldn't Shoot Straight kind of way.
Cambridge Analytica is owned by SCL which is owned by the hedge fund billionaire Robert Mercer and his harridan daughter/wife, Rebekah. They also own the Breitbart septic tank, as well as the manchurian candidate known as Donald J Trump, who is currently on loan to some Russian oligarchs and a terrorist named Putin who just murdered people in Britain with chemical weapons. One of the people he murdered was business partner of a Russian-born business partner of Donald Trump, a guy named Sater, who is a double-agent and convicted money launderer who tried to get Trump financing for a Moscow Trump Tower and is now an informant for the Mueller investigation.
This is all gonna make a great movie after Trump is done. It's like Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy, except with vulgar, money-grubbing sleazebags, porn stars, Slovenian prostitutes and two large failsons who like to run around the world killing endangered animals and posting Pepe memes.
This is the best argument for why we need Net Neutrality rules and campaign finance laws:
"As intervenors in the case, the groups will file briefs in support of the net neutrality repeal order and may play a role in oral arguments. NCTA's motion noted that its members would once again be subject to "common-carriage regulation under Title II of the Communications Act" if the FCC were to lose the case. CTIA said that its members "would be adversely affected if the [net neutrality] Order were set aside and the prior Title II Order classification and rules were reinstated.""
The guy's name is Meow-Ludo Disco Gamma Meow-Meow.
Wait, is he from the Baltimore Meow-Meows? I think I went to school with one of his brothers.

So, he's probably a furry as well as a biohacker. Can I get one of the portable sterilization units over here right now? I think we have someone who must never be allowed to procreate.
like say, a terror attack, no one will know until the day after, because there wouldn't be internet access to report it.
Yes, in the days before the Internet, no one was able to find out what was happening in the world. People in the United States didn't know there had been a second World War until 1971, and they only found out through word of mouth.
I remember the early 1980s when the results of the Super Bowl had to be spread by town criers.
Look, I don't like the idea of a website like Slashdot banning anyone, because for the most part the moderation system works and it's entertaining to see what people have to say. And that has nothing to do with the fact that my own incredibly high karma has made me the most beloved Slashdot commenter four years in a row.
But for chrissake, can we please block anyone who posts shit that looks like this? I don't even want to know how come your apostrophes end up looking like your cat sat on your keyboard. Knock it the fuck off.
Cases like his are why I go to lengths to kick myself in the ass and bootstrap every day, even when I feel I would normally just shrivel up and rot away... a lot to live up to. (context: historically an anxiety/depression sufferer)
Good for you, brother. I hope the struggle gets easier for you.

Now can you figure out why Michael Isikoff's book about the collusion between Trump and Russia is selling way more than 12 Rules?
Is it because damn journalists know more about what's going on in the world than damn self-help psychologists?

OK, once again, I guess I have to post a definition of Net Neutrality. It has nothing to do with content, or speech, or "Network Neutrality".

You're right, it's the other way around.

Because she's worried about you molesting her again?
Since the Freedom Caucus doesn't publish a list or publicly identify its members, how do you know he's not?
And of course the Freedom Caucus keeps its membership secret, because they don't believe as a citizen you deserve to know who they are.
Yeah, but you do it with panache. Or is it grenache? It's one of those, I'm pretty sure.
Yes, in the days before the Internet, no one was able to find out what was happening in the world. People in the United States didn't know there had been a second World War until 1971, and they only found out through word of mouth.

And we used to roast pedants around here too.
Sadly, standards are slipping.
Clearly.
Brother, don't debase yourself for convenience. Have some standards.
I love it when the ACs start to speak in poesy.
I disagree. If you're posting to Slashdot from your fucking telephone, you don't deserve to be here.
If God meant for us to use Slashdot on a fucking telephone, He'd have created a fucking Slashdot app.
Then why am I able to post 'all ' the ' fucking ' apostrophes ' I want without making a mess of it?
