So, I haven't heard much about JP in a while,and now I've heard a podcast and this. Is it just coincidence or is there a reason we're talking about him again? The podcast mentioned he'd gone on some show debating Christianity with 20 atheists. It went as you might imagine, where jp argued that atheists were Christian because they didn't understand the thing they say they don't believe in. Idk. Anyway -- any other reason I'm hearing about him again?

It's mostly just that. The whole thing was a mess. The atheists were told they would be debating a Christian and prepared as such, but he won't define himself as a Christian. So much time is wasted dancing around that. They had to change the title from Christian debates to Jordan Peterson debates. On top of that he will barely engage properly, saying things like he won't entertain a hypothetical because he wouldn't allow himself to get in that situation in the first place. Just generally not acting in good faith.

The guy is a notorious rhetorical shitmuffin.

He just strings fallacies together and his crowd along.

he was seen crying while have an emotional outburst arguing someone recently.

This video analysing that is pretty good: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lrdOamPIRGY

Define "define".

looks like he came down from a benzo-booze binge.

That was the dumbest thing I have read today…

Fries are what the British would call 'chips' and the British are objectively wrong on this one specific thing

[–] HexagonSun@sh.itjust.works 4 points 5 days ago

I’ll bite.

It might have been different a few decades ago, but in the UK these days fries are still fries. Nobody would ever ask for a Big Mac and chips. Chips are specifically much fatter ‘chipped’ potatoes. And potato chips are crisps.

So if we’re talking objectively… Fries are just the same US and UK. But US potato chips aren’t actually ‘chipped’, they’re very thinly sliced. And ‘crisps’ are indeed very crisp.

So I’d actually say the UK descriptions are more objectively correct.

I think Rogan was the smarter one.

Actually, I know Rogan is smarter. Rogan had a craft as a fight commentator; that's a skill that takes knowledge in both tv presentation and fighting. And I bet you rogan easily talk for a full day about Pride FC without repeating a point.

JP knows how fill an essay up to four paragraphs.

I think you're mistaking charisma for intelligence which is sorta how we got here.
