He’s always worth listening to.
If you want to beat the left, you have to beat them with aggression. If they come at you about being a racist, I just tell them that I’d rather be a racist than a liberal. I use their historical record against them.
They’re not do-gooders and idealists. At least not at the top of the food chain.
I strongly suspect that at the top, and where the money starts, it’s coming from those interests that want the west to fall, or at least be weakened.
The do-gooders, bleeding-hearts, and idealists, they are useful idiots. Very useful, but not for the right reasons, despite what they may think. They only employ their brain for ‘the cause’ and they don’t bother to considered the consequences, intended or unintended. They are clever when they have to be, and mind-numbingly blocked and defensive when they need to be.
My family, and I myself, have worked TOO hard all our lives to have guilt about ANYTHING! Sorry.
“It was the British who decided hands down that slavery was wrong and then did something about it.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
That is a monumental moral accomplishment.
It is so perverse how the ones being guilt tripped by the Left are a) the least deserving of being guilt tripped and b) the most susceptible to being guilt tripped.
"The right lacks vision. They play a rearguard game. They don't have a compelling story to tell young people."
We do. But among those few who know the story, they don't want to tell it.
"On slavery:
It was the British who decided hands down that slavery was wrong and then did something about it. And that is documented historical reality.""
It most certainly is not. America owns the story of abolition, not the British. In the early to mid 1770s, Britain was obstructing and downplaying any attempts in our colonies to do away with slavery.
It was the BritishAmericans who decided hands down that slavery was wrong and then did something about it, only to be stopped by the British.
THAT is documented historical reality. Britain has her own issues to deal with over there on that side of the Atlantic. But for those of us here in the states, we need to remember to teach what is contained in the Declaration of Independence and the fact remains. Britain treated us terribly. That included our attempts to halt slavery.
The British do not own abolitionism. Americans do.
Thanks for posting.
Psychopathic narcissists... Thank you Dr Peterson.
That only works on the weak minded. I subscribe to the philosophy prescribed by Benjamin Franklin: “Fart proudly, for you are an American”.
Ignoring the evil vile from your critics is required to serve God. We don’t serve him when we entertain evil vile.
