It's a shame Peterson fried his brain on Benzos. He honestly would have a much better take. We got his Acolytes in the Form of Pool, Rubin, Rogan and Crowder, but it's really not quite the same as the man himself. More broadly everyone I think knows what has gone wrong. A toxic belief system that has infected our society. But nobody knows how to deal with it while also preserving our society. The mideaval catholic church knew what to do with people following "bad" ideas. Pinochet and Franco also knew what to do with people who believed these ideas specifically. But we cant exactly burn people at the stake, give them free helicopter rides or machine gun them against the wall and still be America.
What is infuriating is this same forbearance is being used against us. IMO the only way foreword atm is to trust in the system, and work with it. But the moment these people succeed in their stated goal, of breaking the system, well. If they do what they say they want to do, then we arent America anymore. Are we.
