Jordan Peterson is an anti intellectual authoritarian. He values action over thought just like authoritarians and fascists.

I think it was NordVPN although I could be wrong cause it seemed like everyone was advertising that one for a while. Its what I use, it works good but I'm not sure there is a huge difference between one to an other. But I definitely love having a VPN, especially with not being American.

https://wikileaks.org/wiki/Amy_Goodman > Amy Goodman Reporting the Dili Massacre In 1991, covering the independence movement in East Timor, Goodman and fellow journalist Allan Nairn were badly beaten by Indonesian soldiers after they witnessed a mass killing of Timorese demonstrators in what became known as the Dili Massacre.[1] She has speculated that the only thing that spared her the fate of the Australian-based journalists who were killed in East Timor in 1975 was an American passport; the United States was providing military support to the Indonesian army at the time. The U.S. did not cut off military aid to Indonesia until 1993.

https://wikileaks.org/wiki/Allan_Nairn >Imprisoned for exposing the Dili Massacre

Allan Nairn (b. 1956) is an award-winning U.S. investigative journalist who became well-known when he was imprisoned by the Indonesian military while reporting in East Timor. His writings have focused on United States foreign policy in such countries as Haiti, Guatemala, Indonesia, and East Timor. <

Coverture was almost completely abolished in the US by the 1800s; also keep in mind coverture only applied to married women and the laws were enacted as men were the main source of income, and therefore had the main lawful power of a household. All coverture was abolished by 1960, the last remaining coverture being women could not file for divorce.

Yes it was ruled unconstitutional by the 1980s, but it was already impossible to be formally practiced by then, as most of covertures lawful properties was abolished by the late 1800s. http://www.britannica.com/topic/coverture

my concern about forcing cyrpto msg apps to release user data, fascist user or antifascist user or unaffiliated user, is that sure maybe forcing them to release a fascists information will be helpful towards justice in this instance. but the prescident has been set then for the state to subpena msging apps for the info of antifascists and random people as well.

If you're looking for a crypto app that literally cannot provide information about you, or the messages you send on it to the government, check out Signal. Literally all they have on their users is their username, when the signed up, and when they last used the app. Its tops.

I don't get the edible hype, but maybe because I'm Dutch and there's like 3 coffeeshops nearby. But Im not complaining and happy MR found other sponsors aside from SquareSpace, NordVPN, some fancy wallet for cards or razor blades. Why are there like 5 brands sponsoring all the Youtube videos?

Dinesh Desouza is the reason that all these people say that fascism is left wing. He even has a book on how the Nazis were left wing. Not ironically, Dinesh D'Souza says fascist friendly things every time he goes on Fox News.

Read the book The Lords of Easy Money. The Fed's monetary policy pumped money into the banking system, which sluiced the credit to private businesses. Professional bankers extended piles of credit to their fellow social comrades running private corporations. The credit was used to fund acquisitions and ludicrous bonuses, not worker salaries. This is what happens when elite regulators have the ability to firehose cash at a handful of banks - the banks give it to their private sector colleagues they golf with.

That's fair, as I said that was his annoying use of hypotheticals to probe at multiple possibilities and make it seem as though on one hand "really bad option" but instead this "better option but still not great" is possible if you work with us-- but you're right it started and ended at hypotheticals with no verbal or written guarantee.

This is a great book on the topic, and covers the issue extensively and includes documents never published before, about the use of ambiguity on the NATO/US side and the bungling negotiations

On this line in particular, they sum up the divide as such

>Various leaders in Moscow would point to this exchange as an agreement barring NATO from expanding beyond its eastern Cold War border. Baker and his aides and supporters, in contrast, would point to the hypothetical phrasing and lack of any written agreement afterward as a sign that the secretary had only been test-driving one potential option of many.

This article about Umberto Eco’s 14 features of fascism is a handy link for arguing with fascists.

Show them which feature their argument exemplifies, link to the article and point out that the essay Ur-fascism by Eco was written in 1995 and Eco died before Trump came to power. This will disarm any argument about him being anti-Trump. Also, Eco lived through Mussolini so he knows the features of fascism.

Are we sure it's fascists and not the fucking admin who admitted to creating at least 10 fucking alt accounts? I had no idea WTF that was and when I looked it up that was one of the first things I found.

Yeah no thanks.

> Dude is trying to promo his own party or something? lol that's pure grifter move.

Would you be shocked if I told you his book is scheduled for release the day after this "announcement"?

How nakedly transparent can you get?

I'm not saying nobody can like indie and pop. I am saying that different genres and styles of music appeal to different sorts of people. This is true with all art; the qualities that make one work or piece interesting to some people will make it unappealing to others.

>People that are so hardline about not listening to music outside their curated aesthetic are fucking losers and I thought we were done with that after high school. Lol.

Yeah, I keep hearing about these people but I don't know anybody who does this. I think different people like different music, IDK.

>I'm talking about how leftists enjoy tearing down mainstream things to virtue signal about how good of a leftie they are.

Who does that? The only example I can think of are when Brihana Joy Gray and Jamie Peck both shit on Ro Khanna for liking Hamilton. I thought it was bizarre, but I don't perceive it's reflective of the left.
What I have noticed are rightists who shit on people for being cultured or educated, even if they may have had elite educations themselves. For instance, Sean Hannity ranted on how Obama was an elitist because he ordered mustard. A common talking point on the right is how pop culture promotes liberal ideals. Shapiro even wrote a book about it.

Not sure if this is the one you're specifically are looking for, but I know Michael mentioned liking Ghost Wars by Steve Coll:

Really having my eyes opened by The Jakarta Method by Vincent Bevins right now if anybody is looking for recommendations.

>That puff piece is probaby bullshit, lol.

Except it isn't and you can fuckin' buy the rocket science book from Amazon

>Come on dude, have you seen him in interviews? the guy is a pathological liar who wants to be perceived as smart.

He left in 1992 to study economics and physics at the University of Pennsylvania; he graduated in 1997 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in economics from Wharton and a Bachelor of Arts degree in physics from the College of Arts and Sciences.[59][60]61

His presentation doesn't mean he's not smart.

>Ok I'm bored now, let's just agree that you're wrong.

You're bored because you're wrong how about we agree on that.
