yeah the key to someone being an ideal impression subject is that they're easy to do well but difficult to really *nail*, and JBP is in that sweet spot

Right, and I'd say the same about Trump. with both of them, you can do many "versions" but a definitive impression is very difficult. the only person that really nailed Trump was Anthony Atamanuik.

the Burger King video should be pinned somewhere, at the top of this thread or maybe even on the ilx front-page. it's a work of genius

No way that debate happens. Either JBP chickens out or Slavoj is too ill to travel.

or the debate goes ahead and they end up agreeing on the perniciousness of political correctness

It'll be awful if it happens - they don't actually have anything to say to each other.

They’re opposites. Zizek thinks in paradoxes. Peterson is extremely literal minded.
― Trϵϵship, Monday, 14 January 2019 21:34 (five years ago) link
richard wolff has offered to debate peterson before, to no avail as yet, which would be a much more interesting proposition imo

I was trying to explain Jordan Peterson and his meat diet to someone earlier today and I called him "Gwyneth Paltrow but for incels" and I feel like I've cracked a code— Jessica Valenti (@JessicaValenti) February 25, 2019

He and Slavoj Zizek are going to debate or something. They deserve each other.

not the biggest zizek fan but they're hardly comparable offenders AFAICT

Gwyneth > Zizek > JP

Goes without saying. But zizek is still good too.

i like zizek quite a bit but he probably does deserve to be in a debate with jordan peterson

there’s this weird fake conversational thing where she made a post, he responds with “you should explain” and she did that
it’s indistinguishable from informercial dialogue where they’re about to tell you what to buy

Zizek will be a discursive mess and Peterson will be self righteous but stick to the talking points
