Jordan Peterson is one of the dumbest “smart” guys I’ve ever encountered. How can he even type up something like this without realizing how illogical and absurd it is?
He basically just used “word tricks” to classify all civilization as fundamentally fascist. Which is obviously an incredibly stupid position. I could use the same argument to claim that anything involving cooperation is fascist. Just mind-numbingly, infuriatingly stupid.
Anyone who takes this guy seriously is a knob.
Right? His “analysis” is so shallow a child could poke holes through it.
He says:
“Fascist” is from the Latin term “fasces” which means “bind together”. Corporate, government and media collusion is fascist, by definition
What he’s trying to do here is water down the meaning of the word. He’s alluding that everything dealing with “togetherness” is fascist. Families? Business contracts? Weddings? Yup, all of these could fall under his re-imagined dictionary definition of fascist.
Be aware this is a tactic fascists like to use (and have used throughout history) to water down the meaning of words so they lose effectiveness. The thought process goes that if everything is fascist, the word loses meaning so then nothing can be fascist. Dumb argument but it can work sometimes, so we must be vigilant in continuously mocking this tactic and those who use it.
Please join us in our protest against LePage 8x PL fast grab premium construction adhesive, and leave your fascism at home. Unless you were planning on taking the filling out of a whole pile of Oreos and fascisming them into one super Oreo, because that’s the fascism I adore!
