My main annoyance with Peterson
(FB 1541956556 Timestamp) —“I admire Peterson’s ability to articulate himself and handle the dishonest tactics that are thrown at him by interviewers and debaters. But by the same turn my main annoyance with him, and others like him such as Moly is that they seem to think that being articulate is the best way or perhaps only way to confront dishonest tactics, and that they resort to the same tactics themselves as a means of doing so. Not everyone can articulate themselves that well, especially during a confrontation. I certainly can not do it, in fact I am often stunned speechless when people use sophistry against me. To live in a society where these tactics are the norm is a nightmare for me, and it would not matter how many men like Peterson stand up against it since they are still perpetuating the problem. I like his stance against regulation of speech, and I think it is important but it is only a stop gap measure.”—Jennifer Dean

(FB 1541965134 Timestamp) TALKING TO THEM IS NOT THE SOLUTION. By John Mark The thing is, it doesn’t matter how good we get at pincer attacks on leftist “arguments”. It doesn’t matter if we are all JP-level debaters times 1000. The left will never change just because we win a debate. Midterm results show that although JP may help free some people from leftism, in the grand scheme it’s but a blip. There’s close to zero effect statistically from all our debating the left. They don’t care what we say. They want what they want, they carry out their instinctive strategy, period. They’ve been doing it for thousands of years. The few sincere truth-seekers who change their minds and join our side are not enough to turn the tide. They’re a lone ship drowning in a massive sea of instinctive leftists who will never change. Add in mass 3rd world immigration, and all our “gotcha” moments in conversations with leftists mean even less than they already do. TALKING TO THEM IS NOT THE SOLUTION.

(FB 1541964384 Timestamp) THE ENEMY DOESN’T REQUIRE INTENT, ONLY FAILURE OF DUE DILIGENCE by John Mark This is massively important. Being sincerely wrong because you didn’t do due diligence (you didn’t study and question your priors sufficiently) is just as destructive as being malicious. And it allows you to be a useful idiot tool in the hands of those who would destroy all we value. This is why I have started telling civnats that still believe in the false religion of equality, “You are my enemy, because you are unwittingly working for my enemy, and until you fix that, I must treat you as an enemy.”

(FB 1541959215 Timestamp) As eli so thoroughly demonstrates, we don’t prosecute you on your intentions alone, but on your failure to perform due diligence. This eliminates the ((())) model under which one can claim innocence of intent under conditions of creating moral hazard, which one then benefits from.
