I am not a judge, but I see a troubled woman who doesn't deserve to be cut down publicly, using terms like 'wacko'. She's a human being that made mistakes, like we all do, except her mistakes are put on display. It's okay to form an ill-judged opinion on those displays, but posting it as statement only points to your own short-comings. >> | |

I felt that way toward Aziz Ansari's accuser. As for Rose, hmm I'll remain on the fence about it until the smoke clears. | |

i haven't listened to the first podcast they did since it came out, and i remember it being such an unpleasant grind that i can't see much sense in going back to it again. they definitely went over religion during the 2nd show, and my take-away is that peterson has basically a fatalistic view of human nature, that there's only the thinnest sheen of civilization separating our current state from pure barbarism, and views religion as an integral part of the civilizing tool-kit.
without making this too p&r-ish, i'd say i somewhat agree with his pessimism, but think there's much to be said for the steven pinker argument laid out in better angels of our nature & his new book enlightenment now that modernism, cosmopolitinism, enlightenment values are the best arrows in our quiver for making more agreeable people. | |

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |
