People around here sometimes shit on Peterson because he's never come out that he's fully on the Trump train.
To me it doesn't matter, he speaks so much truth, and wants you to think for yourself. I believe he's one of the most important figures in this Culture War.
Jordan Peterson has done incredible work for millions of men, he's also de-radicalized a lot of people on the far right, which can only be a good thing for us.
He's absolutely an ally in this war, the same people who gatekeep supporting Trump are the same ones that never leave their house and live on the internet.
It's important to remember that if you became a leading member of the culture war, your character flaws would be on full display for everyone to see, and I know for one that my flaws are many and there would be a lot to criticize and rightly.
We're all imperfect, we should expect our allies to be imperfect as well.
The Nazis came to power because the German people were absolutely fucking terrified of the Bolshevik Reds taking over the country and watched in horror as the limp wristed Weimar Republic did nothing to stop the takeover.
They looked for a strong man to protect them and unfortunately, Hitler offered them a strong alternative but with enough socialism, to keep the average German happy.
The two people talking are Dianne Abbott (Labour) and Michael Portillo (Conservative) and the interviewer is Andrew Neil (who is tipped to be the next chairman of the BBC)
Neil: “Why is it right to wear a Maoist t-shirt, but obviously wrong, because it is, to wear a Hitler t-shirt?”
Abbott: “I suppose that some people would judge that, on balance, Mao did more good than harm; you can’t say that about the Nazis.”
In April 2020, she was appointed to the Home Affairs Select Committee.
ffs
The Home Affairs Committee is one of the House of Commons Select committees related to government departments: its terms of reference are to examine "the expenditure, administration and policy of the Home Office and its associated public bodies".
Communists are worse than Nazis because, whereas Nazis valued the highly competent experts that have enabled large populations to survive without dying of preventable maladies such as dyssentary and starvation for eons, communists tend to eradicate such necessary elements leading to mass starvation and sickness. After communism's initial growing pains, where tens to hundreds of millions of innocent people die, such societies either fail to compete with capitalist nations or they need to cheat and rig everything in their favor, ala China. It's the communist's denial of hard learned expertise of the ages that seems to be the core of their cruelty. Their preference for fantasy over reality has brought about the worst consequences yet experienced by mankind.
Is this the "nazism espouses hatred while communism espouses equality for all"? Doing some quick googling ... looks like Nazism killed probably around 15-20 million or so, communism: anywhere from 50-110 million.
Wow, ain't communism just the God Damn ideology of peace, ain't it? It's a fairytale joke. If humans were angels, we wouldn't even need a government; period. Let alone a communistic one.
And Jordan Peterson has several great videos on communism. Anyone who thinks "that wasn't real communism, someone could put someone in charge who could pull it off" is the most arrogant and deluded statement. Clearly they lack an understanding of government power structures: anyone even half as saintly as required for the position would be stabbed in the back and gutted so fast you'd puke up your entire week's food. Then fall unconscious and choke on it.

They are not as bad as the Nazis.

This is a dead on description. Well put.
Here's a video explaining it

Dianne was the shadow home secretary - if we they had won either of the two elections, she would have been in charge of the police and borders.
Abbot off her meds again?
That was in 2008

So she's probably helping to lock down that gang rape report, eh?

Thats because Russian communism was started by jews and jews have a great ability to set the baseline of conversations

Well, ain't that unhelpful.
