for a guy who supposedly wants young men to reclaim their rugged masculinity, he sure does spend a lot of time railing against characters from kids' entertainment

okay, I'll bite: what's wrong with Elmo
― frogbs, Monday, 4 June 2018 19:39 (five years ago) link
he panders to the weaknesses of the child. no child who loves the unconditional fawning of the red muppet will ever be self-sufficient, let alone a man

I know what's going on here. There's obviously a sinister kermit-spiracy to deprive other muppets of the spotlight

i saw the jp book sitting on an unoccupied table in a coffee shop the other morning while i was waiting in line. i scowled but was curious what the dude who returned to the table would look like. it was a 60-something year old woman.

They found that although the show was produced for 3-to-5-year-olds, children began watching it at a younger age. As a result, the target age for Sesame Street shifted downward, from 4 years to 3 years.hmm yeah

wasn't there an anti-Elmo gawker post a while back? It was a reasonable argument I thought. Maybe there's something to this Peterson guy.

I have to admit I hate Elmo for talking down to kids, but I dont want to be on Petersens side on that regard ugh.

Shouldn't Peterson hate everything Jim Henson stands for, anyway? Statist softie multiculturalism.

you'd think so, but peterson's not really about following up on the logical endpoints of his various gripes about pop culture

Peterson seems like he'd identify with Sam the Eagle, solemnly engaged in a long, thankless struggle against the forces of degeneracy

So Jordan, tell me why your line of thought went from the elementary school age Lisa Simpson directly to 50 Shades Of Grey.
― omar little, Tuesday, 5 June 2018 16:34 (five years ago) link
oh my god he is such a fucking dipshit
The FICTIONAL FUCKING CHARACTER Lisa likes Nelson because she finds out that he has a tender and sensitive side to him, that he's the child of neglect, not because he's brutish. WTF does this have to do with the popularity in the real world of 50 Shades of Grey you dumb fuck? DFKJSDFLKSDJFLKDSJFSDF

women liked to be dominated, an example of this is when Lisa liked Nelson the bully in one episode of the Simpsons. I am a brain genius

Another important character of note is the self-made mogul Hank Scorpio, whose vision has transformed the town in which his company’s headquarters is located into a safe, secure paradise (a paradise only undone by government interference.) The streets are clean, homelessness has been eliminated, and under the benevolent yet firm guidance of Scorpio, Homer flourishes. He earns Scorpio’s respect so much that when he decides to resign (because of Marge’s shrill resistance to domestic ease, Lisa’s weak resistance to allergies, and Bart’s resistance to his perhaps correct diagnosis as a special needs child), Scorpio not only understands but subsequently gifts him with that most masculine of imprimaturs: an NFL team. Most interestingly, the team Homer is handed is the Denver Broncos, a squad which was regarded as the perpetual losers of the league. Homer initially regards the gift as a disappoint but, as history showed and as perhaps Scorpio was whispering to Homer via this franchise: “every loser wins eventually.”

You see, if Superintendent Chalmers was forced; policed by an authoritarian government, perhaps, into referring to Skinner's disastrous meal as "steamed hams", it would result in a moment of cognitive dissonance so profound that any competent society would demand his immediate resignation from the school system. Furthermore, by asking to see the "aurora borealis",

as i just said on twitter in response to that tweet, aside from the fact it’s p embarrassing he’s treated as a celebrity thinker and really we should just let him get back to being angry about the politics on his particular campus, his entire thinking is bamboozled by the civil rights movement.

Not sure it's bambzooled, as such - he just can't admit in public, at this stage, he would have opposed the civil rights movement.
