I didn't read that, anyhow I think we all agree that systemic problems require political solutions.

True, true. But how do we explain Episode I?—widely considered the most political yet critically among least successful of the franchise.

Being adamant there isn’t a God is similar to being adamant there is a God. In my opionion anyway.

logically i have to be an agnostic cos i can't perceive 12 dimensional space and see outside the physical realm (for example), but i think an indifferent, godless universe is a lot more reassuring than heaven and hell. i'm no dawkins though. umbro just seems to dread the judgement of something that in all likelihood is fiction, it's so needless. imo a god who condemns people to hell because of an accident of birth is quite a cunt

Hell is a human concept and isn’t mentioned in the bible for example (which you could argue is also a human concept of course). The pope recently confirmed that there was no hell according to scripture.
Anyway, I look at it differently. I can imagine the possibility of there being a design, which leaves many doors open for interpretation. That all “this” happened by chance through chaos is also a possibility but not one I’m fond of. Contrary to you I find it reassuring to wonder about the possibility of something more after death.

i can appreciate that man, life is so fleeting i guess it can be comforting to imagine it going on after death. and i'm trying not to be an oh-so-certain dick about all this, i recognise in the scheme of things i know fuck all

In the Star Wars media empire there's no discussion of class relation to the means of production so I'm solely interested in it with respect to Gay Muppet Theory, for example Yoda is a "confirmed bachelor" (yeah right!) voiced by Frank Oz, who also voiced Miss Piggy who is obviously trans (their voice drops an octave when they are microaggressed).
Incidentally Yoda functions as a bridge between the Star Wars and Gay Muppet universes, as we see in much slash fiction such as Gay Muppets Take Coruscant which IMO ought to be canon.

The KJV Bible is Jesus Universe canon and Mormonism is fanfiction. thank you for reading

“Mormonism is fan fiction”
Yeah I’d love to dig a bit deeper and have a read. It certainly doesn’t offend me. I often have great chats with a couple who are Jehovah’s Witnesses, and I really enjoy our talks. They don’t judge me one bit and enjoy open conversation. They’ve never tried to convert me, as interestingly it’s not something they do. They just believe they have to pass on the word. Even when I have a bit of a go at some of their weirder beliefs and the shunning that sometimes takes part, they are open to talk about it without getting all defensive about it.

Frankly the concept of "canon" is psychoimperialist bullshit from the start. To argue that something ought or oughtn't be considered "canon" is to already buy into that system of control.

I think we can all agree that denying the canon is a way of whitewashing and thus reinforcing cultural hegemony. But this is the kind of gaslighting I've come to expect from Trump trolls, Buttignomes and Klobugoblins.

As someone with anxiety and depression I have found various things he's said useful. But I've only ever watched clips on YouTube, I've not followed his career or bought any of his books. I agree that the Left get upset at the idea of someone taking responsibility for themselves; where can you shoehorn Blame into that? Obviously everything is Facism and Racism these days so sure, any suggestion other than reparations now is going to look bad. Pretty sure I could find on Twitter 1000 Black academic bloated diabetics with far more fantastical and harmful horseshit than this guy.

If you think about it, persecuting Dr. Peterson just because he was assigned white male at birth betrays a belief in essentialism, and is therefore a form of misogynoir.
That's bad!

Anyhoo. If you want a critique of Peterson that isn't silly, hyperbolic and hysterical, that doesn't posit him as the second coming of Adolph Mussolini, read this article. I posted it earlier in this thread but you might have missed it.

I appreciate that, thank you. After about the 267th paragraph it was clear the article was essentially just saying how shit Peterson is.
I haven't read his philosophical musings or possibly gnomic, cod-biblical wisdom. The only bits I've listened to him talk about, about mental health, have in general been actionable steps that I thought sounded reasonable. I have, on the back of this, ordered his 12 steps Book so I'm probably going to become one of his fawning dimwits, unless it's full of cod mystic esoteric wank in which case I'll return to this thread and contribute my boot to the collective kicking.

Fair enough, he is a psychologist and a therapist and one would expect him to have some actionable advice for people's personal lives. I don't mind his "get off your butt and do something, ya dummy" side.
I've read not all but big chunks of 12 rules and I'll be interested to hear what you think. I have some comments but I'll not prejudice your reading.
