Unrealistic. This is way too coherent. Needs more word salad.

This is only missing JP coming up with a completely deranged definition of what fries are that he demands the cashier adheres to (I don't think the vodka applies, that's more making fun of the cashier). And also him entirely dodging the question of whether he likes fries, stating that people have discussed whether he likes fries but he refuses to reveal it.

Obviously fries represent the western civilization. Frying oil is the chaos dragon of woke left that means to destroy the fries, but will instead transform them into something even more beautiful, an entity of culinary perfection. But you would already know that if only you had bought my online course. sob It's so sublime. sob

Gets plain fries, but gets charged for vodka. Cashier points to vodka line on the bill and says "potatoes", then points to fries and says "potatoes".

False inductive reasoning combined with butwhataboutism and sealinoning. All designed to exhaust the opponent and muddy the argument. Conservatives love this form of argument.

[–] frenchfryenjoyer@lemmings.world 44 points 1 week ago (4 children)

Sealioning (source) + whataboutism. A very cheap method of trolling and exhausting the opponent of the argument which relies on the victim being unaware of sealioning and they're being sealioned. It's frustrating seeing JP fans think this is proof he's a genius. it's like Ben Shapiro, another rightwing "influencer" who constantly speaks fast and gish gallops on purpose and his fans think he's a genius for that too

It depends on what the definition of 'is' is.

Currently watching a Peterson debate... This is just too perfect.

[–] Cruxifux@feddit.nl 22 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Watching him debate those atheists was painful. His debating technique is beyond stupid.

[–] kkj@lemmy.dbzer0.com 19 points 1 week ago
  1. Make a statement that is at best wildly controversial and at worst blatantly untrue
  2. Redefine the words in that statement to make it vacuously true and completely uninteresting
  3. When challenged, say that you don't care about common parlance
  4. Everyone loses, because this debate is now pointless and annoying

"Join intellectual phenomenon Dr. Jordan B. Peterson for enlightening discourse"

Stupid People glom onto him like he's a genius. I guess he kinda is a genius compared to the average Trump voter.

My father tried to tell me what a "genius" he is. I told my father point blank, Jordan Peterson is only a genius to morons. He even gave me one of Peterson's self help books, I immediately tossed it in the trash. Though, in retrospect, I probably should have tried to return it to Amazon and used the money to buy something more worthy of reading, like Chick Tracts. 😂 At least they're entertaining.

There is a great impression of him talking about Burger King that I have to share. He's doing this same kind of stupidity in this video. https://youtu.be/-BDgQMGs7Mc

So, I haven't heard much about JP in a while,and now I've heard a podcast and this. Is it just coincidence or is there a reason we're talking about him again? The podcast mentioned he'd gone on some show debating Christianity with 20 atheists. It went as you might imagine, where jp argued that atheists were Christian because they didn't understand the thing they say they don't believe in. Idk. Anyway -- any other reason I'm hearing about him again?

[–] Robust_Mirror@aussie.zone 19 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It's mostly just that. The whole thing was a mess. The atheists were told they would be debating a Christian and prepared as such, but he won't define himself as a Christian. So much time is wasted dancing around that. They had to change the title from Christian debates to Jordan Peterson debates. On top of that he will barely engage properly, saying things like he won't entertain a hypothetical because he wouldn't allow himself to get in that situation in the first place. Just generally not acting in good faith.

Some person was showing me videos of him and telling me he was very smart, does anyone happen to know some good examples to get him to reconsider?

Vodka with my Big Mac

I've had that quite a few times. Doesn't really go together but rather they go sequentially. First you drink vodka then later on you want greasy shit

I genuinely can't think of a better example of a modern day sophist than Jordan Peterson.
