No thank you
I been threatened with all sorts of things off Facebook tonight on my West Brom Site, apparently they don't like our excessive sexual references. After studying all the posts it's seems our striker Daryl Dike,who has scored in a friendly tonight, is the culprit with his dodgy name, had to tell the members to refer to him.as Big D ?

The latest strike in the Culture Wars has taken an interesting twist...one for the Jordan Peterson fans:

Who could have guessed that his official youtube channel would be full of positive comments? It's almost as if people who subscribe to his channel might like his content and views.
Got to love him telling people to get on with each other and reach out whilst he spends every day on Twitter rambling like a deranged mentalist about how evil the left are.
The disingenuous grifty dipshit.

I don’t understand people who are offended on behalf of other people.
Also people who apologies for something on behalf of everyone else when most people don’t actually care.
Just a load of busybodies, get a life you sad people.

A bit of a long one... I actually don't mind Jordan Peterson.
I've listened to some of his audio books and podcasts (the Stephen fry one is good) and while I don't like how heavily he leans on theology, and how it influences his thinking, he is clearly an intelligent fella who is well read.
Where I disagree with him is that he seems to like playing agent provocateur, which is fine in a reasoned and rational society (my opinion is that no topic should be taboo and we should be able to put forward an extreme counter view with the goal of sparking debate). However, his views are often picked up by the extremist groups (and morons) who take his words as gospel and hold him up as some sort of guru.
That in itself is not his fault, and if he is truly doing what he does with that purist view that no debate should be stifled then it is hard to criticise him. I think it's similar to how Elon musk is worshiped by idiots like some kind of God because he is "just like Tony stark", posts memes on twitter and one of his companies made a flamethrower. It says more about the dolts who follow them, to be honest.
However, he needs to be aware of his profile and influence and should also be aware that people deliberately misuse his words, sometimes with violent consequences. Sadly, l think he is well aware but has such a purist view in freedom of speech that he sees how others act on them as nothing more than collateral damage.

Nope it was all in the first person, so I think we’re in the clear….
One of the most long-winded “support me on patreon/sign-up for my new online academy” videos I’ve ever listened to. Basically JP is the first grifter to expand into a new demographic, like when KFC pioneeringly established its first restaurant in China in the late 80s. Others soon followed.
