The vast majority of the above didn't really address the real point: Peterson dedicated a large amount of his work to understanding Nazi psychology with the express purpose of trying to prevent more Nazis from popping up in the future. He isn't "on the same spectrum" with nazis and white supremacists. Nazis really have become the ultimate McCarthy-style boogieman of the 21st century, to the point where the 2020s are basically Godwin's Law on crack.
I'm not a huge fan of Meghan McCain, but she put it well with she said "“Democrats cannibalize and Republicans get in line”. Basically, Democrats love to talk about "compassion" this, "inclusivity" that, "comrade" that etc, but in practice, they are prone to viscously turn on their own in a way which you pretty much never see conservatives and libertarians doing to each other. Just look at JK Rowling, whom liberal millennials got like half their values from growing up. They turn on her on a dime, even pressuring her not to go to the recent Harry Potter reunion....which she created. We also have Whoopi Goldberg and Sharon Osbourne from The View, Joe Rogan.....I could go on. The list of Democrats who have been "canceled" is even longer than that of Republicans, because they know Democrats will care and Republicans won't.
So coming full circle...how are liberals supposed to form this so called "brotherhood of all humanity"....if they can't even get along among themselves? Seems like putting the cart before the horse.
Quote:When we recognize human brotherhood despite ethnicity and creed we have defeated Nazi-style and KKK-style fascism (as if there is any meaningful difference between the two). When we recognize the legitimacy of views contrary to our cultural sensibilities and economic interests, then we thwart both Bolshevism and Pinochet-style fascism.respectfully, this is precisely the kind of empassionated sophistry that is going to get us nowhere (though I appreciate your willingness to also denounce the left wing equivalent of autocratic repression).
