“Silencing” the moderate left, and leftists who care primarily about economic issues, has to be destructive for the left overall—even if it’s effective in the short run.pic.twitter.com/f7eKSbI074
I think it's a mistake to suggest people must be being disingenuous because of Peterson's obvious intelligence I watched this video and was honestly surprised at how stupid nearly every part of it was, even after everything I had read in the left press https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ofmuCXRMoSA …
It’s oft said that there are two JBPs, the academic social philosopher/psychologist and the culture warrior, who are quite different. Reactions may depend in part on which one someone encounters first.
It's become less "silencing" and a lot more "loud shushing" People are caught up in the semantics, but there are a lot of people who refuse to read any positive articles about the IDW as they are shushed loudly by more left-focused media/personalities.
