    Knowing nothing and stupid don't mean the same things, you do know that right?

    I know nothing about the history of Kenya, yet it doesn't mean that I'm stupid.

    So what you're saying is all Kenyans are stupid :)

    "Well, yeah, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man"

    He said they 'know nothing' along with a load of other derogatory adjectives. Why did you pick the most trivial point of the quote above. Feel free to address the point of the post along with knitpicking.

    Probably because every single time you get called on your editorializing you disappear for a few pages and then show up again trotting out the same lines so from here on in it's all direct quotes with proper source required for you or I don't buy it.

    Don’t buy it if you don’t want. I presume you’ve spent all you money on self help books.

    Peterson said they know nothing and a load of other derogatory add ons, i summarised by saying stupid and inexperienced. Its not a direct quote but it’s a fair approximation.

    The point was about how it’s gone for young people to campaign for something the poster approves of, but if they campaign for something the poster doesn’t approve of then Peterson’s insults kick in again.

    Why are you stuck on the most trivial point of the destination between ‘know nothing’ and ‘stupid’?

    Hadn't heard of this bloke before the other week, but after reading up about him a bit, and watching his videos, I think he has to be respected even if you don't agree with his stance on certain things. Quite often he's emotionless, shooting people down with the calm of Richard Kuklinski adding another scalp. I realise he gets a bit heated sometimes, but I find him remarkably level-headed. It's infuriating when people misinterpret what you're saying, intentionally or unintentionally, so fair play to him for managing to maintain a sense of chill in the face of that. On the whole, I quite like him.

    Now you're being silly. If you knew anything about Kenyan history then you would know that not all Kenyans are stupid. You obviously know nothing.....or something.

    You're all just racist and xenophobes.

    FYI:

    There's a few of the flat seated tickets left for Peterson in the 3Arena tomorrow night. They're going for €20 + fees including a wristband for access to the book signing after the show, when face value the last time I checked was about 3 times that IIRC. They must just be trying to shift the last few.

    I always thought the 3 arena was a weird choice of venue for this kind of gig :confused:

    Appears to be plenty left now.

    Looks like they wanted to clear the remaining floor seats and have now moved onto the remaining seats in the blocks.

    €98 was the face value on the premiums!

    Yellow seats are the best seats in the house imo. You're really close and at roughly the same height of the stage

    He's on marian finucane at the moment.

    After he left Marian comes back after the break and reads out a text from a woman who says that she's a feminist and Jordan just detests women.

    Jesus. I used to believe that stuff too, but every time he has a chance for a rebuttal it dispels whatever nonsense is thrown at him.

    You see accusations of racism thrown at him. Never seen it but when people are desperate and lack the argument, they go for the man and not the ball.

    Could someone summarise what his amazing truth that people can't handle is?
    Because all I hear is waffle.

    Shouldn’t you be getting ready for the event?


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,423 ✭✭✭✭Outlaw Pete


    Mad delays down at this. Here's a pic of the queue at the roundabout right now being diverted down towards Point Village.. . showtime 8pm apparently.

    Gonna rain soon too I bet.

    Hopefully security will wind up dragging off some scrawny fella with purple hair who tries to rush the stage

    Bit a rock n roll like, cos dry balls like peterson and sam whats his face won't be trashing the stage

    So many virgin incels hitting the pubs after Peterson gig.

    Get yourself a can of beer and watch his videos on You Tube, they're very interesting.

    Well at least they'll be out socialising and hopefully having a good time.

    Incels won't pay money to watch Peterson.
    They would most likely mock him.
    It's like the clown on here saying without legalised prostitution, we'll have incels on the warpath.

    Which fails to understand incels and their "outlook" on "life"

    The man is making good money and knows his audience well it appears.

    That’s not waffle. He often talks about transcendent metaphysical substrates. What’s difficult about that? I’m sure all his followers could explain what those things are, right?

    In all seriousness, a lot of it is just noise, that ends in telling angry white men who are too socially retarded to get a relationship, that they’re right and everyone else should cop on and watch his YouTube sermons. Then they’d get a girlfriend and things would go back to the good ole days Lol.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,117 ✭✭✭✭Junkyard Tom


    Damn lefties with their cultural Marxist conspiracies, out to destroy western civilisation with bum-banditry and cross-dressing.

    Am I right?



  • Closed Accounts Posts: 752 ✭✭✭DickSwiveller Returns


    Saw a lot of people on the Luas home with Peterson's book. Was the place full? Was wondering if it would sell out.

    There's a mad bang of Lynx Africa off that picture.

    Is it true that they were practically giving tickets away today (€20, I heard), having priced some of them as high as €196?
