Im so confused.

Roar comes into thread, says a bunch of people have room temperature IQ's and then when someone gives some back he says 'why don't you PM me instead of doing it in public'... erm buddy, you came into the thread throwing the insults lol.

In his defense, I could say "Hi my name is Diddums" and roar would accuse me of personal attacks.

You're out there attacking a guy who's wife had cancer because he took an anti-anxiety drug and probably think you're a good guy lol

I think if you hold yourself up as a bastion of male life advice, you should probably be able to handle your own life. He has been incredibly insidious towards various different groups and is completely fair game to criticise for his various personal and professional failings.
 
I used to watch him on YouTube and he seemed quite wise and insightful. Then the stuff about only eating Beef is really odd and made me feel like he was a bit of a misguided loony. I'm not keen on his right wing politics and his religious beliefs. I have mostly ignored him recently.

You think he's fair game to abuse because he didn't want to be forced by law to use gender pronouns which could be made up on the spot.

I disagree with this. He had a whole load of debilitating physical issues and ended up discovering that the carnivore diet cleared them up. He has not recommended the diet for other people, he's only said that it works for him. He has also said repeatedly how boring and tedious he finds it.

He doesn't know why it works, just that it works. That's exactly how we used to find herbal remedies in this country hundreds of years ago, by trial and error: we threw things at the wall to see what would stick. In a lot of cases we didn't know why certain combinations worked, just that they did what we wanted them to do.
 
From experience I could absolutely see why he does eat only beef and nothing else. The healthiest I have ever been was when I cut out processed carbs completely and went for high fat/protein foods only with occasional veg. Not only did I drop weight quickly, but my energy levels went through the roof, but it was a hard diet to follow, specially if your out on the road a lot.

Ah yes, exactly what Jordan Peterson knew these people were about. Eugenics. Like I said, room temperature IQs.

No, the basis of communism is basically that resources are finite, and that the guy who has more has more at the expense of someone else, who because one person has more, has less.

The example he uses is the communists who confiscated the land of successful farmers, what happened is, the people who took over cant farm, and long story short, everyone starved to death.

So if you say we need less population its the same argument but executed differently, which results in the same eventual conclusion.

Maybe i dont explain it properly, regardless, jordan is very emotional and will say things like that.

They are not actually in favor of eugenics, i am, my reason for it is simply to improve people, dont care about climate effects.
