I saw this guy’s video shortly after it was posted. There were NO hallucinations and I’m not sure he understands what the word means. He’s claiming that the 12 times Peterson stumped Newman (by Adams’ count) were actually Newman experiencing hallucinations. No, she’s just not a very good thinker and a feminist. You can be delusional in your views and never experience a hallucination.

Poor use of the word hallucination!

I’d say she experienced severe cognitive dissonance a dozen times.

Bill Whittle used to be a great writer. Now he only does videos. I hope Scott Adams is not going down the same path.

Scott Adams is a cartoonist! This is a step up! ;-)

These types of videos are interesting but tiring. I can speed-read, but I can’t speed-watch.

I disagree. She was quite literally ‘hearing’ things that were never said — IOW, hallucinations.

Not trying to pick a fight but I think it was an apt use of the term hallucination.

According to the dictionary, it means:

An experience involving the apparent perception of something not present.

For over thirty minutes, she repeatedly heard Adam's utter things that he did not say. It was like she was in a trance.

While it was not like she was on an LSD trip, she still was tripping out in her left wing head space. To me, these liberal freak outs are even more scary because it is not as readily apparent that one is dealing with a raving loony.

Anyone with a spare 30 minutes should watch the original interview. It is a real eye opener.

I didn’t see the video. You may be right! I do read Adam’s work and he has a tendency toward hyperbole to make a point and to get a laugh. I assumed that this was the case here.

But Rats having hallucinations while you’re giving them facts and reality would explain a lot of my experiences with them.

I watched the interview. Cindy Newman had two major problems with Jordan Peterson. 1) She didn’t want to understand anything he said. 2) She is too dumb to understand anything Jordan Peterson says if she wanted to.

On a not-mobile-phone computer go to the settings in the YouTube video and select speed. The voice pitch stays the same, it just goes faster.

“1) She didn’t want to understand anything he said. 2) She is too dumb to understand anything Jordan Peterson says if she wanted to”

Sounds like a Human Resources puke I had to deal with. It was no wonder she got the nickname “Pet Rock”.

That’s horrible. It’s bad enough to put one on TV but to give one a real job with power over people!?

Totally weird, emotional, non-factual attack “interview”.

This woman is in WAY over her head in that she has no factual basis for her attacks. It’s a PC weird world for her.

Yep, she's a total PC nutcaser unwilling to examine the data.

Yeah, the Youtube speed “dial” is a real time saver.
