If you're a professor who challenges the identity politics of the far left and far right, the leftist media call you "alt right intellectual"

Did this happen to you. Or is there an article you are referring to?

@Ynotisay Go ahead, continue to not read books and then tell people about your opinions on those books. You'll go far.

@Ynotisay What is wrong with having read his book/s?

Btw I never read 12 rules. I had to listen to it on audible. It is [b]not[/b] a self help book. It remains primarily a psychology book which offers proposals in prioritising and productivity. Based off of his years of clinical work with patients.

It is a heavy read. Not one for "cowardly, white boys."

Therefore I feel that my having scrutinised his work over various mediums rather that just lapping up yt videos, would be a positive in my favour? 🤔

Follower? Pfft! I'll let that one go seeing as you don't know me. 😉

Again, while I admire and agree with some of his work. I am not inclined to just accept any and all works 'just because.' No I didn't know about the lecture. Thank you for pointing it out. But. It is not evidence enough to prove your point. The guy is a clinical psychologist. Discussing topics and playing devils advocate comes with the territory.

@QuixoticSoul who on earth is "Memerson"?

True, & the right media call them alt left. That's why we need to just be ourselves & ignore others labels.

@cunningcrocodile You don’t need an arbiter for these things - retards are going to be retarded whether I am here or not. It’s like being an arbiter of gravity - shit will still fall down even when you’re off the clock.

@QuixoticSoul The existence of gravity does not depend on the subjective views of the person experiencing it, they will be effected by it regardless as you say. In contrast to someone being retarded depending entirely on whether they agree with you or not. Thanks for proving my point.

@cunningcrocodile Who said anything about agreeing with anyone? That’s not the criteria. I don’t agree with Hitler, Mao, or Memerson either - but they’re not retarded.

He’d be retarded in a forest where nobody could hear him being retarded too. It’s just his nature.

Yeah, but the media will call anyone to the right of Stalin alt-right something.
cunningcrocodile · 31-35, F
@Sicarium And then when it starts to look stupid, as they push the centre to the left more and more, turning even more reasonable people to the right of them, they change the label to "troll" because that can refer to anything they like.

The Leftist Media, huh?
Uh...sure thing.
cunningcrocodile · 31-35, F
@Ynotisay Come to the UK and see how much of a bias leaning towards the left, they have (Y)

I am a professor. Naturally I’m liberal.
cunningcrocodile · 31-35, F
@Serendipitymaybe Yeah, that's how far your stupid "progressiveness" gets you. It turns women on like a gutted fish.
Serendipitymaybe · 51-55, M
Wasn’t trying to get in your pants but rather pontificate a bit about life.
cunningcrocodile · 31-35, F
@Serendipitymaybe Fine, but you DM me first.

Are we talking about Memerson here?
