      Silly. It is the will to fight, the ‘thumos’ that matters, not the capacity.

      Oh please. The willingness to try and physically hurt people for disagreeing with you makes you a thug, not someone I'd respect.

      Yes. As does the response that followed it. Pointing out that some idiot may mug me some day isn't an argument.

      No. You seem to be entirely reliant upon the State to protect you. I am saying that this is both unmanly and imprudent.

      On the state?! Was Kevin suggesting state should protect him from people disagreeing with him? No. Why does this require state or violence?

      The original point made by Peterson was that men are usually polite to one another due to the potential for violence. 1/

      2/ No one said that violence was an argument, this was the misunderstanding on the part of Kevin, and now apparently by you.

      The potential for violence if words cross a line. Someone would have to hit first. Someone would have to be violent coz didn't like words

          As opposed to throwing little baby fits and fighting people over words. May want to quit while you're behind.

          Is everybody else here American? Brits have this perception of Americans as having the healthiest attitude to free exchange of ideas.

          Suddenly speech we don't like is unendurable & people must be fired or punched for it.

          OK. I accept you read this as him simply observing that there is always a threat of violence behind men's speech rather than approving it

          In this case, it was forming a movement and calling people Nazis. In other cases, its OK to punch ppl for saying Nazi things. Its pathetic
