So I had an "argument" with this lobster fanboy that exhausted my patience, but I think you might find it entertaining after all, especially if you know Latin! https://www.reddit.com/r/JordanPeterson/comments/dd4mce/jordan_peterson_is_a_genius/f2f2wkj/

Oh my god another lemming who pretends that Bill C-16 can charge people for saying things that the freedom of speech would otherwise protect
I'm a tran who was given a position, no training required, on the Canada Police® after Bill c 16 passed. Can confirm, I am arresting and charging everyone who misgenders anyone ever, and sending them off the plank. /s
You are part of the conspiracy, then. Lobsters will come after you.
If they sing songs from The Little Mermaid to me, I will gladly accept my fate.
“I don’t care what lawyers have to say about it,just like JP I’m going to insist Bill 16-c is something it isn’t.”
So... they acknowledge logical fallacies up until the 2nd paragraph of their last comment when suddenly logic is infallible?
Tell me about it...
Since you don't understand I'll clear things up for you. Objective Logic isn't fallible, humans are. Humans can use logic incorrectly, hence logical fallacies :) ancientone regularly uses logic incorrectly, that's why it's correct to say they're an idiot as that means weak use of logic.
You really enjoy being ridiculed in front of everybody. So be it, you are now the clown of this sub.
Whatever you say lmao!
My favorite part about postmodernism is that whether or not there is an objective reality is beside the point. The point is that your squishy brain is not equipped to find objective reality, it's only equipped to find high fructose corn syrup and other things that make it give itself dopamine.
I'm well aware postmodernism doesn't accept objective reality, and instead creates a reality dependent on subjective senses
Jordan "Junkie" Peterson does just that when he says truth is anytjing useful and guzzles drugs to make Him happy.
I mean you are totally right, however you should not insult him like this. Probably that guy is just a confused teenager, there is no reason to get mad at him.
I get mad when I spend time making a detailed point and the other person just laughs it off. It's disrespectful and dishonest and definitely worth public humiliation, at least to prevent such behaviour in others.
Anti-intellectualism is a scourge and anyone who expresses this attitude deserves to be ridiculed.
I couldn't agree more.
Very well, I'll make the effort to stay civil even though you probably are a college dropout who reads wikipedia and thinks he is smart.
You'll enlighten me? Listen very well slave of the JP cult, I am a Philosophy lecturer in one of the most prestigious universities in the world, I speak four languages (without counting latin and ancient greek) and I have studied the classics since I've been able to read. So take your bag of self referential "education" and throw it somewhere else.
This reads like classic internet tough guy copypasta. You may be very smart, but telling people how smart you are is a terrible approach.
Why does it matter? Well it depends what you're trying to accomplish. If all you want is to score internet points and make someone feel smaller, then maybe you accomplished that goal. But if you want to actually educate people and change minds there are better ways (if you are interested.)
Not that I'm any kind of expert. I just recognize that there are ways to express things that put people on the defensive automatically.
I didn't say anything about being smart, that's something you are saying.
I just stated my credentials.

So you are just here to troll. Understood, and tagged appropriately.
If you think so...
I must admit that JP fanboys really are exhausting.
There's nothing worse than ideology.
When a fool condescendingly tries to "enlighten" you about a field where you are formally trained and employed, it's not trolling to inform them of that fact.
Lmao you're delusional. If anything we're laughing at you, not with you.
Yeah, I just gained 50 karma for this. Keep dreaming lobster boy
I feel bad for you that you care at all about karma... And you're a lecturer of other students?? Oh, how depressing I find that.
I care about karma because you said "we", when in reality it's only you.
"We" are laughing about you right now.
Wtf are you even talking about? When the fuck did I say anything about we? If you're referring to the comment about the person laughing at you how about you take a second or two to read that our names are different...
"Waaaa you insulted me and that's an ad hominem!"
No, fuckwit, it isn't.
Reddit loves to pretend that ad hominem is a Latin way of saying "an insult" smh
I do love how the highly logical^TM people never seem to have the patience to distinguish between logical fallacies and informal fallacies, which is literally (and amusingly) illogical.
I mean FFS, an ad hominem isn't a fallacy because it makes the argument wrong, it's a fallacy because it's irrelevant. The person you're arguing with can call you a Dunning-Kruger fuckwit and you can still lose the argument by being factually wrong, they aren't mutually exclusive.
