I am quite sure you admitted in the past that you have been in fights and knocked about. Now, the truth of all of that is down to you. All I know is that you do 'sound' rather angry when it comes to Robinson and Co. Nothing wrong with being passionate however. Mind you if somebody wanted to hit me on the head they would need a ladder. Sure, nothing wrong with being passionate, but let's play fair here, I mean, I do on occasion get called unhinged, extreme, and mentally ill myself on here. Tito is a riot when he gets into a flow. And no Tito I am not starting another war with you!
The politics itself IS nihilistic. The politics is what has opened borders. The politics is what has given rise to identity politics. The politics is what has killed millions of people around the world. The politics is what creates authoritarianism. The politics is what has driven mass inequality. Now on that final point I think inequality is natural and normal, but inequality driven by government policy is an abomination. Politics is incredibly nihilistic and unhelpful at its current juncture. In making these points I am not even referencing anything Peterson has said, but that is my own take on modern politics. I find it incredibly grim, incredibly unhelpful, and incredibly harmful. Nihilism is the lacking of morals and taking away meaning for ordinary people. I think making white working class children the worst performing members of society because all too many come from broken homes, are neglected, and have their own culture denigrated incredibly cruel and nihilistic. For sure politics at its current juncture is nihilistic and people are angry and this is seen in Brexit, in people dumping Labour and Tory, in people starting to lash out. The chap in New Zealand was created more by modern politics. He saw things he couldn't handle in France, he built up an incredible level of nihilism and lost all hope and lashed out in a horrible way. Rather than criminalizing manifestos, it is better to ask questions, debate, discuss, and ask what creates such monster. And I don't think you will find that Jordan Peterson creates them. It is more likely the politics of the last 20 years or so. And let us not pretend that these are the only monsters. We saw hundreds of Christians murdered only a few weeks ago in far greater numbers, there is no comparable outrage. Whenever kids get blown up in Manchester we are told 'It is not all Muslims'....'It is the religion of peace'. Do you really think Peterson says the same kinds of things quoted by 'those' terrorist attackers? What Peterson will admit to is that each of us has a darkness inside of us and that we must tend to that side with caution and wariness.
What is warped about not wanting to rape someone? Do you want to rape people? I know I don't! Do you not find it warped that Jess Phillips thinks it is hysterical that men seek health treatment more reluctantly than women and die earlier as a result. Is it funny that men kill themselves in such numbers? On this very forum we have had conversations on this kind of topic recently. It is NOT FUNNY! And she is a horrible person for mocking it. The media doesn't care about that! Now if Sargon wants to say that he will NOT rape someone then surely that is better form than laughing at men who kill themselves! It has been dragged up by the media 3 years later for ONE reason only and you KNOW exactly what that reason is. Nobody is getting raped over it and it is the media that keeps going on about an ANTI RAPE comment but keeps calling it a rape comment. Beanz, I wouldn't even rape you or anybody, so surely you can see that it is nothing comment. Walrus will probably like me for saying that. I am hardly pro rape am I? When Walrus said he simulated raping an old girlfriend I straight away said that it was a very weird thing. Even acting it out is way beyond my weird compass. Forgive me for not being open minded and post modern enough.
Those two are campaigning where they are for logistical reasons. Probably. The North probably has a lot of Robinson supporters. In fact most places outside of London want out of the EU. Robinson likely feels that is where he can have an influence. Now it is unknown if they will even be successful, but the response by the media is very telling indeed. People want Brexit and they are not going to rest until they have it. I don't particularly crave any notoriety either, but I do not flinch.
