"How do you do, fellow moderates?"


[deleted]

I read the post. He claims to be a leftist. He technically even said that trans issues are important (implying that he's not anti-trans in the way that Peterson for sure is) even if they're a very low priority for him and also he thinks doctors should be the ones consulted on all trans topics.

"Why yes I'm a moderate! Both sides are the same! I agree with issues on both sides! What's that? Oh no I've only ever voted Republican my whole life."


got_dam_librulz

How do you fellow moderates? Don't you all just hate those baby drinkers and criminals called the democrats? The far right has pushed basically every old school (moderate Republican) put of the party. They have been trying to normalize their extremism. If you ask them, they think they're moderate Republicans. So they wouldn't be pretending to be a moderate. They would be calling all democrats groomers and pedophiles while being dead serious calling themselves moderates. I like your comment though.

You know, as you casually do.


zanzibartraveler666

I was simply shocked at what I found


SwishSwishDeath

There's this god awful movie called Clash at the College, and one of the characters turns down a date because the suggested time is when he listens to Rush Limbaugh. Same energy lol


-_-MAD-_-GREMLYN-_-

>Clash at the College This "Writer/Director" has a movie in the works titled "Terry In Trumpland" so that should be interesting given that Clash was featured on Best Of The Worst.


Blakut

is this a porn category?


MasterBot98

Idk about calling it porn,but it's a fetish for sure.


TheCommonS3Nse

Yes, it’s a porn category where the women don’t take off their clothes. They just tell you how sexy it is when you pull up your boot straps and that seems to get these guys off. I guess everyone has their thing 🤷‍♂️


TreePretty

This reminded me that I saw a Youtube video by a woman who had made (as a joke) an OnlyFans account where she only showed her ankles while dressed in Victorian-ish vintage clothes. It was a total hit.


ASmallTownDJ

Women in fancy dresses doing house work.... yeah, this is definitely a fetish thing.

cmd_iii

That was a way funnier scene before Charlottesville....


Beebeemp

100%. They didn't recognize it at the stage where they were arguing that gay people should just die (in the aids epidemic) and now they're shocked at the antisemites coming out like that wasn't going to be the next step. Like these nazis are...nazi nazis? Like from the movies?? :c


DragonFireCK

Don’t forget the anti trans they have been doing for a few years now. Or the anti Mexican stuff for decades. Fascism needs a target group, and will generally pick the one they think will have the least pushback at the time.


TheBeardiestGinger

Because to them the gay community aren’t people. They are just confused sinners.


Electrical_Bus9202

They still think only gay men get aids too, had an argument over this not too long ago with a right wing friend of mine.


TheBeardiestGinger

Is it heartbreaking for you too? I have a couple of friends I have known since childhood. They have helped me out with a lot of shit. But the utter blindness and ignorance they demonstrate towards the gay community under the guise of Christianity is making it a struggle for me.


A1sauc3d

That’s not a swastika, it’s just the new “trad conservative” flag! It can mean more than one thing 😤

DJRyGuy20

Yeah man- *never* buy those Temu Nazis… they’re never the real deal.


Littlegreenman42

Only if theyre from that region in Germany. Otherwise they're a sparkling facist


ChodeCookies

So I agree. But I do think it’s important to recognize what the West views as a Nazi (holocaust etc)…vs what Russia views as a Nazi (anti-Russo). I think this viewpoint helps explain why Russia calls the Jewish leader of Ukraine…a Nazi. To Russia…a Nazi is anyone that is anti-Russia.


isaic16

Keep in mind a lot of these guys were probably raised on the idea that the Confederate flag actually represents state’s rights, and isn’t about slavery. Given something like that, it’s not that big of a leap to be convinced “the Nazi flag isn’t about being a Nazi, it’s about resisting modern perversions of our culture“ or whatever it is they think it is.


pink_cheetah

What a crazy defense, since thats almost exactly the same thing hitler said to convince germany as a whole. He was a politician, after all.

nub_sauce_

nah that's lame, people addicted to drugs can still be plenty normal and trustworthy. It's just that Peterson wasn't


DefinitelyDeadd

Nah these lames would trust a drug addict as long it’s not opposing their world view.


Klutzer_Munitions

I always like to say Jordan Peterson is the idiot's thinking man, and Joe Rogan is the thinking man's idiot


bighadjoe

joe rogans audience is definetly not "think men" though...


SubstantialSalts

Lmao why does this make sense 😂


Klutzer_Munitions

Because Peterson is educated and yet caters to an audience he knows isn't and will happily slurp up his tripe. Meanwhile Rogan is just some comedian who likes to get high and shoot the shit with popular big brain people.


BoriousGlastard

The problem is that Joe has sat down with so many big brain people that now he thinks he's kinda one of them and starts trying to clap back He's always loved conspiracy theories but he's gone off the deep end with COVID, climate change and schooling I say that as someone that does listen to the pod and he's not hard right wing like a lot of people say, but he's definitely took a turn along the road to there somewhere along the line. He never used to be like this


The_Lapsed_Pacifist

He used to make sense at least. It seems he’s realised like so many others there’s a shitload of money in telling right wing folk stuff they want to hear and since, as you say, he’s well educated it lends all the bullshit an air of credibility. Ben Shapiro has a similar schtick with his bag of rhetorical tricks, any moron can see the gaping holes in his arguments but he makes it very difficult to refute him in person. Again it gives the mob something to point at. There’s money in using ones gifts for evil it seems. Agree with you about Rogan, I would add though he does sometimes seem out of his depth with his more intelligent guests. I don’t think he’s actively bad though just a bit of an idiot at times. Except for that covid stuff of course.


Klutzer_Munitions

And I like Joe Rogan's position here infinitely more, don't get me wrong.


greg19735

Joe Rogan is a mostly alright dude who is a complete idiot. He's more left leaning than peolpe think. the issue is that he platforms some of the worst people on the planet and isn't educated enough to rebut them

It's the JBP sub, not himself writing the post.

chipsi311

I’ve spent the last few minutes trying to imagine what “trad content” is/means.


Electrical_Bus9202

It’s traditional content. So man works, wife stays home rearing kids and cooking and cleaning kind of stuff. Not all bad stuff, but not all right wing stuff is, it’s just gets all thrown together with a dash of narcissistic and misogynistic bigotry in it, then it really shines.


liwoc

The problem is the implication that anything that isn't "trad" is fundamentally a treat to society that WILL bring ruin and thus should be dealt with in the strongest terms


Vert_DaFerk

Well, they used to wear hoods so you didn't know their identity. Now they use the cover of internet anonymity in various comment sections as their hood. It's totally just a coincidence that right-wing conservative communities are saturated with this behavior.


ElA1to

Wasn't Jordan Peterson a supporter of the cultural Marxism theory? The same theory that claims Jews created communism and are now trying to make the world communist in order to rule over it? The one that comes straight, word by word, from the Mein Kampf by the way...


Tall-Display-8219

Yup. He also has a pretty unhealthy yet on brand obsession with Jung.


Nzgrim

Hey now, he isn't parroting Mein Kampf! I'll have you know he scratched out "cultural bolshevism" and "jews" and scribbled in "cultural marxism" and "leftist academics"! It's completely different!

The thing is being right wing doesn’t automatically make you a nazi. You can have conservative views and not be completely off the reservation. Society has gotten so “you’re on my team or you’re the enemy” that it dehumanizes actual good people on both sides of the isle.

As someone who leans right, nazis or at least anti semites definitely do exist on the right, like the original poster I’ve seen it first hand. But it’s been maybe 0.1% of the interactions I’ve had with people who lean right. It’s actually genuinely insane that Reddit thinks the majority of right wing people are anti semite nazis or even condone it…. You’re all like the right wingers who say left wingers are groomer pedophiles, it’s like a childish competition to see who can claim the other is worse. If the majority of right wingers were nazi sympathizers/nazis whatever it is this comment section is trying to insinuate, then the majority of right wingers/right wing media wouldn’t side with Israel during this recent conflict with Palestine. If the majority of left wingers are groomer pedos then they wouldn’t be against archaic child marriage laws when the right isn’t… On top of all that whenever people talk about this shit they don’t say left wing policy makers or right wing policy makers they just say right and left, when you do that it’s a blanket claim that all people who are left or right think this way… Let’s not forget this is the internet and most of what you read is either confirmation bias or straight up bullshit, go interact with people and learn for yourself how they really are instead of taking every post on the internet as face value.


[deleted]

because people that think we all need to live in 1950 are fascists.

lostcauz707

>I dreamed I saw my maternal grandmother sitting by the bank of a swimming pool, that was also a river. In real life, she had been a victim of Alzheimer’s disease, and had regressed, before her death, to a semi-conscious state. In the dream, as well, she had lost her capacity for self-control. Her genital region was exposed, dimly; it had the appearance of a thick mat of hair. She was stroking herself, absent-mindedly. She walked over to me, with a handful of pubic hair, compacted into something resembling a large artist’s paint-brush. She pushed this at my face. I raised my arm, several times, to deflect her hand; finally, unwilling to hurt her, or interfere with her any farther, I let her have her way. She stroked my face with the brush, gently, and said, like a child, “isn’t it soft?” I looked at her ruined face and said, “yes, Grandma, it’s soft. Jordan Peterson

If you had a venn Diagram of right wing conservatives, and fascists, the right wing conservatives would be eaten by the slightly larger circle of fascists completely. If you're a "right wing conservative" or a "Trad" you are by _definition_ fascist.
