Les leçons d’un concert en campagne
Un article de Henry Bonner Les gens ont tendance à accaparer les ressources dont ils ont envie et ce afin de poursuivre les projets ou plaisirs qui leur tiennent à cœur, et c’est d’autant plus vrai lorsqu’il s’agit des ressources des autres : ils trouvent ainsi presque toujours le moyen de justifier l’usage de l’argent des […] ⌘ Read more

L’inflation n’est pas près de s’arrêter
Un article de Henry Bonner L’inflation baisse de mois en mois. Néanmoins, les hausses de taux ne produisent pour le moment ni krach, ni récession. En fait, les taux d’intérêts qui sont actuellement sous le niveau de l’inflation reviennent à des soutiens par les banques centrales afin de financer les déficits. Sans surprise, sous peu, […] ⌘ Read more

for context, Peterson and a bunch of other know-nothing men are reacting on twitter to an article in The Atlantic co-authored by Applebaum, who has quite a bit of expertise on the subject she’s writing about. That doesn’t seem to matter at all to Peterson, who knows nothing of these subjects but opines about them anyway. She’s been tweeting about these reactions and the screencapture I posted previously is one of hers about Peterson.

@prologic@twtxt.net Maybe so, but that’s not because of the people who are objecting to Jordan Peterson, that’s for sure. You really need to read the articles I’ve posted before going there. Really.

@prologic@twtxt.net

Taking Jordan Peterson asn an example, the only thing he “preaches” (if you want to call it that) is to be honest with yourself and to take responsibility.

This is simply untrue. Read the articles I posted, seriously.

In a tweet in one of the articles I posted, Peterson states there is no white supremacy in Canada. This is blatantly false. It is disinformation. Peterson has made statements that rape is OK (he uses “fancy” language like “women should be naturally converted into mothers” but unpack that a bit–what he means is legalized rape followed by forced conception). He is openly anti-LGBTQ and refuses to use peoples’ preferred pronouns. He seems to believe that women who wear makeup at work are asking to be sexually harassed.

He’s using his platform in academia to pretend that straight, white men are somehow the most aggrieved group in the world and everyone else is just whining and can get fucked. The patron saint of Men’s Rights Activists and incels. I find him odious.

@prologic@twtxt.net nah, not inclined to do that. The articles suffice–have a read of those when you get the chance.

1. To be murdered is potentially painful.
