Helen Pluckrose added,
While that's an excellent rebuttal, I have to say I'm getting a little concerned about all this JBP dogpiling. It's really starting to look like the same 'purity testing' we mock in the PoMo circles.
That assumes we have the same goals and are in the same circles to begin with & pounce on people who don't approach them correctly. I disagree with Peterson for the same reason I disagree with other deniers of the objectivity of truth and other social conservatives. Consistently.
Fair enough. I suppose I'm not getting concerned because you SPECIFICALLY, @GodDoesnt, or a few others criticise (it's your right).
Just that my timeline has been FILLED with it the last month or so. Looks like a lynch mob.
Judge them on what they are criticising him for, whether it is reasonable and related to what he is saying. He's a significant voice now with much influence. The problem is that he is a one-man phenomenon so criticism of his ideas ends up indistinguishable from criticism of him.
This makes me uncomfortable too because I can criticise far-right & far-left & religious & anti-SJW views without targetting individuals & just focusing on ideas. But he, as I said, is a one-man phenomenon so this doesn't work. It matters tho. It need to be addressed.
Yeah. If there were 5, 10, or 100 JBPs, this wouldn't look so much like a dogpile.
