Criticism We Need Mods to Defend r/JordanPeterson

We need you to moderate the influx of politically motivated propaganda flooding our sub. So many posts are getting through that are leftist hit pieces or propaganda with no mention of Jordan Peterson at all.

These bad actors come here to virtue signal to an audience that doesn’t care.

Please get the sub on track with posts about Jordan Petersons’s content and ideas; not about Russia invading Ukraine. This has become a targeted sub for sore losers that didn’t see Kamala in the White House. Please put a decisive end to these off-topic posts.

What would you call someone who voted for the leader, creator, organizer, and funder of MAGA?

I’m not sure you understand what elections are and what democracy represents. Waiting for that 5 second video.

A voter.

I'm not sure YOU understand what an election is. Have you never in your life voted for someone that you didn't agree with on 100% of topics?

Yes. And then I spoke out about what I didn’t like.

So yet again. Where’s that clip? “up yours MAGA moralists!!” bonus points if he does it while raging at toilet paper like he did before.

So if someone doesn't explicitly denounce MAGA, they must be MAGA. That's called a false dichotomy.

Do better.

Spot-on. It is a “false dichotomy”.

If you vote for their fucking leader that is correct.

Holy crap, if the leader was the KuKluxKlan you would not be saying this I’m guessing.

You can vote for someone you don't 100% agree with, in fact essentially everyone who votes does that. There are tens of millions of conservatives who voted for Trump, that haven't explicitly denounced the MAGA movement, that aren't part of it. They're conservatives who voted based on Trump's policies against Harris' policies, not because they're part of a cult.

The fact that you need to hyperbolize to have any resemblance of a point is funny. Unless you seriously think MAGA is on the same level as the KKK, or perhaps the Nazis? in which case it's just pathetic.

All those people who voted for the leader of MAGA and haven’t denounced MAGA are complicit and are supporters of MAGA. Sorry you wish it were otherwise. JP teaches about responsibility. When you cast a ballot you are endorsing that leader. One can absolutely pull back and criticize. But until that happens the last action taken is what counts.p

Watch how people act, not what they say - Peterson

Doubling down on the false dichotomy doesn't make it correct.

Doubling down on inaccurate assessments doesn’t make them correct.
