1/ So... Jordan Peterson thinks that not only is Russia attacking Ukraine because the US is 'degenerate,' but that they are justified in doing so. This is getting kind of scary, and not just because of the supervillain routine he's doing in his vids lately.
2/ To explain why Russia is attacking Ukraine, he goes on a long diatribe about Ketanji Brown Jackson. He complains about Biden looking for a black woman and that she wouldn't answer the question "what is a woman."
3/ In fact, wanting to nominate a woman while denying women exist "violates the principle of noncontradiction" proving that we have become logically and societally degenerate.
4/ He thinks that therefore, we don't have the moral high ground against russia, because we are degenerate.
5/ And he says the Russians think they have a duty to fight off this degeneracy, and they're right!
6/ Wow! That is some dark stuff. What he's saying is not funny, but do watch the videos if you want to see the actually deranged extent to which he hams it up.
end/ And here's a little bonus clip of him admonishing us for not really caring about Ukraine because unlike him we've never heard of the "Holomodor" (it's actually called the Holodomor).
If I were Jordan Peterson's publicist I would gently recommend that he not make "fighting degeneracy" one of his talking points. But I think it's probably on brand for the Daily Wire so they might supersede me.

1/ I read the article looking for something to dunk on David Fuller about, but nothing raised my hackles too badly so instead I'll just say a bunch of my opinions.

I think people should be extremely skeptical of public intellectuals. No one can produce enough
2/ original, true, and interesting research to be interesting for more than an hour or so per year. So the job selects for narcissistic charlatans (read: Weinsteins) with godly talents for speaking in a way that's entrancing. It doesn't hurt to be shameless about stepping out
3/ of your lane. Peterson is a false epiphany machine. Worse, he can tell people just about anything and make them believe it's science. So I think anyone who ever took him seriously is a fool.

1/ Youtube made me watch this (don't blame me). I've read Helen Joyce's book and it's designed to stoke fear about trans people - how disgusting their surgeries are, how they will prey on you in the bathroom, and how the movement is out of control. Image
2/ One irritating thing about reading and listening to people like Helen Joyce is that while I consider myself quite pro-trans, I don't feel my views are ever really rebutted. Joyce is much more interested in repeatedly attacking a "sex denialist movement."
3/ Like the Weinsteins, she likes to pull out the "evolution happened, and males make sperm and females make eggs" factoid. I regret to say that I and every trans person I know or have listened to speak is keenly aware of this.

1/ The theme of today's Darkhorse Podcast #126 was "sophistry." Bret has been noticing lately that his critics are all brainwashed NPC cuck sophists. Could this be a growing threat to the West?
2/ In this episode, Bret and Heather are kind enough to provide us with an illustrative example of sophistry in action. At least, I hope they don't really believe this, do they!?
3/ Basically, Bret and Heather regurgitate an antivax talking point from a few days ago (brownstone.org/articles/have-…) that the mRNA vaccines do not decrease all-cause mortality.

1/ It's episode 123 of your reactionary podcast and if you ever had anything to say, you certainly have run out by now. Your brain goes into overdrive and randomly chooses two topics you have some tortured misunderstanding of to link together:
2/ That's right, everything that was once binary has become a spectrum and everything that was once a spectrum is now a binary. Ever tried to talk to an SJW about the visible light spectrum? It's impossible
3/ Heather is such a confusingly stupid person. She believes that the concept of gender roles is good (and xxxtra evolutionary), but gender identity is bad and sexist. But when she describes what she thinks gender identity is, she is actually describing gender roles.

1/ I'm so sorry but this is another John Campbell thread. This one is actually about bad statistics though so I feel obligated. Plus, John and his guest have asked for an explanation of this data! I'm sure they'll be happy to receive it.
2/ John has "Jessica from Queensland" on to give her bespoke analysis of Australian excess deaths data. (The antivax time-series tea leaf reading is unending - it's a major staple of Darkhorse podcast reference roundingtheearth.substack.com).
3/ Jessica tells us she is not a statistician or a health care professional, but she has some *concerns* that she found while randomly analyzing Australian mortality data (just a zany saturday activity, I guess)

1/ Let us not forget to keep up with the Weinsteins. Here are some intriguing moments from episode 119 😲

First, a short announcement so you can lose faith in humanity in advance:
2/ Heather and Bret seem worried that The Discourse has shifted to the invasion of Ukraine. They haven't come up with a conspiracy theory about it yet, so they are buying time until they can figure out what it's gonna be:
3/ One thing they are sure of is that it has something to do with trans people.
