This guy just became my new favorite person. :pound:


Headline: Jordan Peterson Upset With Child for Using Same Circular Logic Traps He Always Uses

I can't think of a more disingenuous coward than Jordan Peterson.

PS - Rudely saying "don't be a smartass" right after saying "I don't know" how I'd define myself is the definition of hypocrisy and poor manners.

What I find even funnier are the folks defending Peterson because that young man talked over Peterson even though that is the MAGA "MO".

Also these same fools obviously have no clue what the whole premise of that youtube channel is if they are upset over those items.

We've seen a lot of that. They will retreat to manners since there is often no substance there.

Peterson does a similar move all the time - "well it depends how you define ________." He'll use this exhaustively with common words and phrases like an escape hatch. It's pathetic. Words have common meanings. Debates and interviews have rules. Politicians are using this tactic endlessly now and if a journalist presses them on it, they go to the rude card.

It's pathetic. And they are not held to account, but the journalists are blamed. Yes, the underpaid generally highly ethical people who expose corruption and greed for not much personal benefit are the issue. Ridiculous.

Wet Willy Clinton had a wonderful example of that
"it depends what your definition of 'is' is?"

Still chuckle over that one every now and then

It's such an obvious tactic to derail a thread of discussion when things aren't going their way. The sad part is that it can be easy to get roped into this tangential shit talking. It's happened to me.

Next time someone tries the " well define _______ bullshit" I hope I can stay composed enough to ask them if they really need my help defining simple words. It's dis-ingenuousness at it's peak.
