Katie Herzog is a terfy concern troll waste of column inches and since she hasn’t been laid off from the stranger yet she must get along with Dan Savage which is itself a sign of weak character

a friend in durham sent this article about his condemnation by the durham city council and oh my god what a fuckin dweeb he is
"City of Durham’s statement is one of the purest demonstrations I have yet seen of the tendency for the ideologically possessed to use denouncement tactically as a means to amplify and exaggerate personal or identity-group virtue. To lay this bare, I have composed this analysis of the psychological motivations and narrative structure of the statement."

JP’s whole thing is literally “Marxism is evil and murderous ideology” and I don’t remember Laetitia ever having a Corgan goes on InfoWars moment so it’s really confusing.

Imagining Peterson vs. Stereolab as a right vs. left thing is wrong and pointless. Sadier's lyrics contain plenty of sympathetic common ground with the likes of Peterson.

Ok, just for fun, how much do you REALLY know about Peterson & Stereolab? There's five quotes from each here:
1. "Those who do not understand yet say they believe are hypocrites. Anything which is beyond the limits of human reason is illusion."
2."Evil is the force that believes its knowledge is complete."
3. "Consult your resentment. It’s a revelatory emotion, for all its pathology."
4. "Morals are for the blind, not the critical mind."
5. "Nothing at all can be changed if evolution turns us to silence"
6. "When you have something to say, silence is a lie"
7. "Originally this set up was to serve society, now the roles have been reversed - they want society to serve the institutions"
8. "To be jealous is to conform."
9. "What's society based on? It's based on bluff."
10. "Speak the truth and see what happens"

well I only recognize the Stereolab lyrics tbh
― Οὖτις, Thursday, 2 August 2018 21:29 (five years ago) link
cuz fuck if I'm gonna memorize any of this schmucks' "aphorisms" without a catchy melody behind them
Stereolab:1. "Those who do not understand yet say they believe are hypocrites. Anything which is beyond the limits of human reason is illusion."4. "Morals are for the blind, not the critical mind."7. "Originally this set up was to serve society, now the roles have been reversed - they want society to serve the institutions"9. "What's society based on? It's based on bluff."
idk what the 5th one is

I still don't get this analogy and that's not Laetitia Sadier.

I just don't get what that has to do with Mumford and Sons and Stereolab. May be in part because I know zero about Mumford and Sons.
