Beehaw's community for socialists, communists, anarchists, and non-authoritarian leftists (this means anti-capitalists) of all stripes. A place for all leftist and labor news and discussion, as long as you're nice about it.
Non-socialists are welcome to come to learn, though it's hard to get to in-depth discussions if the community is constantly fighting over the basics. We ask that non-socialists please be respectful and try not to turn this into a "left vs right" debate forum by asking leading questions or by trying to draw others into a fight.

Peterson is a hack, and has stepped far outside of what he actually can comment on.
He is not the intellectual powerhouse that he is purported to be. It's funny that he is even mentioned in the same article as Karl Marx, especially since he uses Marx as a boogeyman.
Fuck Peterson and his kermit voice lending life to regressive politics.
Can you name one specific thing he’s said that supports “regressive politics”?
Peterson fat shaming that sports illustrated model and acting all moralistic about it is pretty fucking regressive, or does that not count somehow?
What irritates me most isn't the fat shaming, although that's gross on its own, it's when he'll use it as a scapegoat for the downfall of our society. It's not the greedy corporations paying bullshit wages, it's bigger women being allowed to model, thats the root of all our problems..
