And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

This guy is just fascinating
And he hands a smug, shallow thinking fool her ass, on a platter.
The thing is, JP *isn't* particularly a conservative. If any label fits, he's much more of a Classical Liberal. But he is a deep thinker and a very intelligent and well-read person.
Comments about the changing definition of "conservative" over the last 50 years redacted, other than to note that the key part of "neo-con" is the second syllable.
He's my guru! Don't let emotional spasms rule your life. Critical thinking is the answer. Although I must say I disagree with Jordan's assessment when he thinks the planet isn't over populated.
That sucked me right in, I only meant to watch for a few minutes but saw it all. It seemed to last about 10 minutes, subjective time!
That interviewer was a great example of an "educated moron." She wasn't aware that she kept getting her ass handed to her, but carried right on as if she were making sense.
I agree with MikeC above: Peterson seems more of a classic liberal than a conservative. He seems by his very existence to be hated by both the far-Left and the far-Right, and I find him fascinating! Anyone who has that many enemies must be on to something, and I really enjoy the way he takes on all comers and destroys them, in the nicest and most polite way!
Peterson's the boss. Liberals are traditionally shallow thinkers. Peterson, a conservative, is not.

Thank God for him. More people need to be listening...

ReplyDeletePeterson is amazing. I had to turn it off after about 10 minutes. That slag was beginning to piss me off.
