Last night.
BBC Question Time.
Via The National:
The outrage focused on a discussion around the experiences of racism described to MPs by former Yorkshire cricketer Azeem Rafiq.
When talking about the issue on the BBC, Peterson twice used “air quotes” around the word “racism” – a choice questioned by SNP MP Stephen Flynn.
Peterson said: “‘Racism’ is a global and vague term.”
He was then interrupted by Flynn, who asked what he’d meant by the use of the air quotes around the term racism.
“Why would you possibly do that? What did that mean?” Flynn asked, adding: “The inverted commas as if it’s not a real thing?”
Peterson answered: “That isn’t what it meant. It meant that it’s indicative of low-resolution thinking.”

The man is an imbecile.
Also, since we’re doing air-quotes… the “anti-semitism” from Rafiq was pretty classy too…

So nice we’re in a society where we can hate everybody all of the time …
Meanwhile Azzim has apologised for anti semitic tweets. And is going to discuss this and ” all other forms of racism ” with a journo. Can’t wait.
Jews don’t count in wokeism. What a crazy world.
In fairness, if it wasn’t for that ‘low resolution thinking’ Peterson talks about the comment threads on here would be really short
“Boom-Boom!”
Indeed
Peterson is what eMatty tries to model himself on.
My TV is HD.
Just sayin’ :)
Jordan Peterson is a dangerous man.
Why do you think that?
He’s a dog-whistle to people like you.
“ people like you”
Would ya listen to yourself man.
Jordan Peterson is more a man’s man than a woman’s man.
Low resolution thinking
In fairness
I’ll be hacking that
But yeah air quote racism air quote
Disposable creature
Damn autothingie
Despicable, not disposable
he’s so wrong on so many things and gets so aggressive and angry when even slightly challenged on his thoughts. He says near the end of that show, that you can’t be corrupt and successful. Says that politicians who choose to be corrupt are never successful. Lady in the audience paints out quite well, why that’s rubbish, and he cuts her off and just repeats what he said louder and angrier. He’s a faux intellect.
That David Bowie’s “Heroes” ….
