... "hardcore not-hating-women and generally not caring too much about skin color, with extreme passion"?
Less sarcastic: You're equating "conservatism" with "racism and misogyny". And while I tend to agree with that, the reverse does not work: not hating women, for example, does not make one a communist.
- pochamago 6y agoYou don't think specifically carving out an exception for hate speech against "the majority" is likely to embolden the far left?
- deadgunslinger 6y ago"Not caring too much about skin colour" The people who only talk about skin colour and have brought it to the forefront of our collective thought, even for people who genuinely didn't think about skin colour. That made me laugh - hard.
- AnthonyMouse 6y agoThe following is an un-nuanced, sarcastic, flippant dismissal of left-wing arguments about racism. You can even guess from the URL what it's going to look like. https://www.reddit.com/r/JordanPeterson/comments/8etk0w/this_picture_is_racist_and_i_am_racist_for/ https://www.reddit.com/r/JordanPeterson/comments/8etk0w/this... It isn't a particularly reasonable criticism of honest intellectuals on the left. It's a completely accurate depiction of low-brow populist left-wing extremists, because they disregard the nuance of their own side's positions and just do the thing in the picture, and then use the conclusion to rationalize vicious hostility and censorship. The mirror image of irrationally hating members of the Blue Tribe isn't rationally hating no one, it's irrationally hating members of the Red Tribe.
