He's just another Z-lister willing to do literally anything to stay in the public eye. Hasn't he basically founded a political party for absolute losers who feel aggrieved at stuff like not being able to call the local newsagent "the p**i shop"? He'll be literally begging for a sport on Celeb Big Brother when it's next on. I think Fox got on Question Time because he’d had a “political correctness gone mad” moment about that 1917 film showing some Sikh soldiers I’m sure he said something about ‘imposing diversity’ or some utter pish like that. A quick check shows he’s most recently upset because BBC radio one won’t broadcast the word “faggot” in that Pogues Christmas song, and will instead broadcast an alternative version. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn’t shock me. Still, the whole thing led to this, so all’s well that ends well. https://mobile.twitter.com/poguesofficial/status/1329394157354446850 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D Angelo Barksdale Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 Did Fox not say that he started this crusade because after the divorce, his kids are being exposed to 'PC culture' ? Literally the 'turned the weans against us' Party. Regardless, like Galloway, he's clearly being funded by shady c***s and naturally our MSM are absolutely fucking choking to give him a great big platform, no doubt on the full understanding that should it ever look likely that he would take actual votes away from the tories, he'll, like the Brexit Party, back down if required. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kejan Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 I had a Neil Oliver video suggested in my YouTube algorithm, fecking YIKES! Look at the nick of him! Stirling-On-Safari look. The long pauses and almost fake accent, to make him look and sound like the house Jock in chief. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just looked at his Twitter and it's absolutely top notch. He'll be full libertarian/freeman of the land nut job by March I reckon. Highlights include saying the government wants to destroy the private sector and self employed, that science needs a "reformation" and that all ideologies are parasitic and you should stand up for people instead (which reads like a live laugh love poster) Edited November 25, 2020 by Genuine Hibs Fan 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NotThePars Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 I actually feel bad for Jordan Peterson I think he’s a fanny and a bit of an idiot but I don’t think he deserves to have his organs harvested by Serbian bodybuilders while his daughter has his second book ghostwritten to fund her experimental Russian developed drug induced homeopathy regimen 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To add to what the good brother has said above he's also advocated dismantling academic subjects which he feels produce people with opinions he doesn't like, popularises "Cultural Marxist" rhetoric which is a far right conspiracy theory, and I believe he keeps a watchlist of professors he disagrees with. So I have absolutely zero sympathy for the stupid man's clever man (although by all accounts he's actually quite good in his actual field rather than the one he's become popular in). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I have absolutely zero sympathy for the stupid man's clever man (although by all accounts he's actually quite good in his actual field rather than the one he's become popular in). Goddamn the funniest part of the debate was that he was given a laptop for the debate (AFAIK Zizek declined) and despite having the entirety of the internet and his own writings to pick from was utterly unable to produce a single Cultural Marxist infesting academia when Zizek asked him to name one. Second funniest was Peterson copping to the fact that he’d only recently read the Communist Manifesto and doing a first semester surface reading of it. Just an all round colossal failure. The academic equivalent of the much-vaunted Iraqi army turning out to face ISIS in 2014 and melting away almost instantaneously except in this case his opponent pretty openly stated he didn’t see them as opponents. His book contains pretty useful basic psychology for the shut ins that love him but the problem is, aye, he then attempts to expand on that basic analysis into fields and concepts he absolutely does not understand. His attempts to talk about thinkers such as Derrida for example are almost as atrocious as my attempts to do the same in my first years of uni. Just basic Wiki searches and passing it off as my own understanding. He hasn't done or suggested any of these things. But this is the kind of nonsense that gets spread around when you take your source of information from a leftist with an agenda, rather than directly from the person you're accusing of suggesting those things. I think you’ll find I’ve read his book so who’s the owned one? (It’s me, his book is shit.) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
