Jordan Peterson v Milo: how the Trickster lost his mojo : Comments

By Jason Beale, published 12/3/2019

Milo's pitiful comments to Andrew Bolt seem very out of character for the self-described 'fabulous troll' of the Internet.

Leftist PC evangelizing and moralizing is on the wane in the west, my dear Jason Beale. And you don't like that, do you?

Your response, is to take two very high profile anti PC notables with very different delivery styles, and try to discredit both of them by implying animosity between them. Since in politics, disunity is death. Then trying to present a schism in the anti PC right's position, enhances the PC promoting left's position.

Jordan Peterson is a psychologist who argues against feminism, GLTIKDCYAW.... theory, and political correctness, using psychological analysis to pick apart the illogical arguments of the Left. The left is wary in attacking Peterson because he is very smart and a true intellectual, something that most members of the left wish they could be.

Milo is a phenomenon as a right wing homosexual, which is almost a contradiction in terms. Milo uses the traditional weapons of the left to attack the left, humour, sarcasm, and outrageous behaviour, certain to offend the stuffy and the prissy. And don't the lefties hate him for it? His importance to the anti PC cause is that the homosexual community has always been known for it's attraction to left wing causes. But homosexuals are a fun loving lot and they probably feel threatened by this new moral Puritanism now sweeping the left wing world.

The left is frightened that Milo's opinions will infect the homosexual electorate and become fashionable, and they will lose a significant part of their support base.

Hence the hatchet job by Jason Beale. Keep up the good work, Jason. The ABC will offer you a job in time.

Dear LEGO,

Whoa mate, Peterson is hardly a 'leading public intellectual'. He is good at making interesting observations from within his field as he should be but when he steps outside his ares of expertise he is all over the shop. For instance his attempt a series on the Bible was pretty ordinary. I had actually started watching it with some anticipation but couldn't finish even the first one. It was pretty clear he really hadn't got to grips with the material at all.

I always have some time for Milo. He won me from the time I saw the clip of him in front of a hard right crowd who were doing Nazi salutes to his rendition of America the Brave.

A gay, effeminate, Jewish lad, who is married to a black man having that bunch eating out of his hand. Quite extraordinary. Even Monty Python wouldn't have dared to write a script like it.

Look Peterson may improve with age. His rise to fame was probably a little too quick for him to cope with fully but he may well catch up. He just needs to concentrate a little less on book sales and youtube likes. I just can't escape the feeling though that he needs someone to give him a really big hug.

have not heard a lot from Peterson or Milo however they must be doing something right to stir up the pussy heads/abc who have been throwing tantrums over Trumps election for 2 years. Any impeachment yet? Thought not, all gone quite.

What Wisdom Tradition does Milo come from or belong to?

None of course. So too for the so called alt-right.

He obviously does not even practice or adhere to any of Jordan Peterson's common sense Twelve Rules for right living. In fact he makes a mockery of them.

He is an adolescent punk, a philosophically and culturally illiterate YAHOO. "Famous" for being famous and nothing more!

The fact that he is a poster BOY for the so called alt-right and is enthusiastically supported by at least some of those who consider themselves to be cultural "conservatives" is indicative of how spiritually, philosophically and culturally bankrupt such people are.

How do you assess whether anyone who is worth listening too?
Such an assessment can be made in factual terms, real, actual, living, human terms.
What is the quality of their existence?
What do they do?
Are they a benign and life-positive presence in the world?
Are they healthy, sane and truly intelligent?

If so then naturally they are intrinsically attractive and there is value in listening to them.

But if they have no real clarity, no real humanity, no love, and no ability to inspect and transcend themselves, then they are a toxic presence in the human world - effectively not even fit for mature human company.

There is no such thing as the alt-right.
No-one in the so-called alt-right refers to themselves as alt-right.
You're an idiot and Milo is not our 'Poster Boy'.
Do you think conservatives by and large support gays?
We don't, but we do think that everyone has a right to live however they choose so long as it doesn't harm others.
We support the truth, and we support his arguments on their own merits.

Jordon Peterson is an idiot and a beta-male and all he does is waffle crap;
(the small amount was forced to watch in order to have an opinion)
I agree with Yiannopoulos.
