they did its CSPAM

They skipped right from hopeful activism to nihilism when less than 100% of things went their way. They're not even leftists at this point. It's grim in there.

this is all quite accurate. i went from 20 - 28 eating a horrendously unhealthy steady diet of spicy chicken sandwiches and big carl's (back when they USED to be $.99 and $1.99 a pop, respectively :sigh: ) from carl's jr (i believe you heathens on the east coast call them 'hardy's" or something to that effect). in fairness to myself, i knew that poo poo was unhealthy, but i barely had any money in those early years, and also didn't have access to a kitchen to cook my own food. though also in fairness to my critics, this was still an issue even after money was longer a problem and i could cook whatever the hell i wanted :shrug:

anyway, when i finally got a job that provided health insurance, i immediately took advantage by taking a physical. this was the first physical i had since probably i was 16 or something. i knew my eating habits were horrible, so i was expecting bad news. but the doctor didn't call me for like 2 weeks and so i eventually called them up. she put me on hold and then came back saying 'yeah, everything looks fine'. and i'm like '...uh, you sure about that?'. and she was like 'yes, all your cholesterol and glucose levels are all normal. keep up the good work'.

now, granted, i wasn't complaining or anything, but it was super surprising to me. figured i'd be pre-diabetic at the very least for sure!

Type 2 still has a genetic component. Which is why you can get people too fat to leave their house but don’t have diabetes.

This is a bizarre thread. Does Jordan Peterson live in all your heads rent free? Or is it just a whole "how dare anyone not be liberal like me?"

keep up granddad, we hate liberals more than republicans

My Take. I like his lectures on psychology. It's his cadence and passion and the information here is I think generally good. I think he's a lot like Kanye emotionally. He's very willing to speak on things he doesn't seem to understand at all! To me he just seems like a respectable conservative, but I think that's only because on the left and right there's no spiritual or moral core.

I always found this article interesting.

I hate leftists who just say "oh lol Peterson is for dumb people lol (not like me I'm so smart I have an undergraduate degree in philosophy!)". Way to be loving insufferable nerds. Peterson's credibility is so simple to temper yet almost all the criticisms I see are absolute loving bullshit garbage which seem hell bent on demonstrating how educated the person criticizing him is while completely ignoring the obvious fact that he offers something which strongly resonates with people across many different demographics! All that does is that just make him more appealing!

It's not like you can even claim the moral high ground because you haven't demonstrated that you have it! Oh great you're not superficially poo poo to minorities, wow congratulations. That such is even considered an achievement worthy of veneration is truly evidence of how low we all are.

He ate so meat he went into a meat sweat coma and was sent to a special Russian meat sweats hospital where his daughter performed a ritual forbidden in the psychologist world for over 300 years. She now puppetiers Jordan’s soulless husk, her astral fist jammed right up his psycho-colon. Now she preaches to her choir who slowly succumb to the words. They will know her, they will become her. Peterson will enter us all.

It wasn't a very good joke, but I did mean that socialism is presented as focusing on the traditional working class (factory workers, miners, farmers, etc) where they could seize control of the means of production, but those jobs are a small fraction of the modern workforce (official figures are around 20%, not the 10% that I posted).

Everyone else works in some kind of service or office job, where we are the means of production, and making my company worker owned won't change anything except the title of the managers forcing me to do unpaid overtime.


If you are the means of production and the place was worker owned you'd be getting paid via direct profits rather than a wage that is like 0.000001% of the profits.

lol at those somewhat reasonable people that don't realise the polarising has been and gone, ain't no one that isn't a brainwormed dumb gently caress interested in crypto

that poo poo is done, we just don't know who won yet because billionares keep throwing money at it and dragging the whole thing on. It's possible if they keep it going for a few more years all the new young adults with long covid will be more susceptible due to having what is known as "really hosed up brain :("
