"When antisemitism becomes a moral necessity"

[lady_*nix]

Dr. Jordan B. Peterson really showing who he is right here:



Extra terrifying because he still has a huge following, and in view of recent shit with Kanye, Trump, Nick Fuentes, etc. We're switching very rapidly here from dogwhistles to open antisemitism. This is a political death spiral, and the endgame is pretty obvious.

BTW if your first thought (like a lot of Reddit commenters) is "he's clearly saying that antisemitism is an indicator of society crumbling"

No. No he is not. What he's saying is that Jews are canaries because we take up wokeness faster than everyone else, and therefore opposing us (i.e. antisemitism) becomes a moral necessity for right-thinking people.

Look at this in the context of his history. Don't try to be charitable. Trying to apply Hanlon's razor here is like trying to assume the best of a mugger after he has already pulled a knife on you.

I must say it makes sense

And here is Peterson on an interview with Stefan Molyneux - who is already known as a white supremacist, see here: https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Stefan_Molyneux - talking about how The Jews have an IQ advantage over other white people and therefore "are overrepresented in positions of authority"

Because, you know, having a history as impoverished and hated immigrants has never created a cultural drive towards scholarship and success before But yeah, dude is leaning more and more into full neo-Nazi territory these days. If nothing else, it says worlds that he's willing to speak so uncritically with a guy like Molyneux.

His face when spouting this antisemitism isn't quite as punchable to my mind as Molyneux's when spouting misogyny, but he is clearly working towards that goal.
