Comments:

I don't want any religion dictating law.

>Too late, our constitution and bill of rights was already dictated by Christianity

>>There are values derivative of christianity enshrined sure but all of the dogmatic christian laws (blasphemy laws, adultery, fornication laws, christian sabbath and sodomy laws) have all been repeled for decades.

You had me at "Honest Conversation" with Andrew Wilson being involved.

He is not a good person. He is an awful spokesperson for the Christian faith. His views are dangerous, and very anti Christian. In fact, Christian Nationalism as an ideology, is anti-Christian. And i'd be very happy to debate this with anyone with contrary beliefs. Though unfortunately, we have too many in this subreddit who shy away from Peterson's ideals and avoid debate.

>That’s a whole lot of claims with very little backing. Why isn’t he a good person? Why are his views dangerous? And why is Christian nationalism problematic?
>
>Without supporting your position with evidence or anything you’re just making outlandish claims.

>>He’s what’s called a Christian presuppositionalist. I would say it likely makes him a bad person and his views dangerous because of how little room it leaves for other people to exist in his mind. It parallels malignant narcissism almost perfectly.

>>>Once again. People ask what’s wrong with Andrew Wilson’s views and the response isn’t addressing his positions or any flawed logic. >>> >>>All you provide is a bunch of ad Hominems and allegations without any evidence or real critique of his worldview/positions. >>> >>>Responses like these make it seem like you’re just too low IQ to contend with the logic so you go on to attack his character by saying “he’s not a good person”. But news flash people, nobody is an actual “Good person”. Everyone has flaws. Andrew just doesn’t shy away from his. He’s blunt, and can be sometimes rude to really drive home a point and a lot of people don’t like that, but his logic is solid. >>> >>>So not liking someone’s position just because they’re “not a good person” is just low iq logic.

His beliefs call for exclusion based off race/gender/ethnicity/religion. That is completely contradictory to thee teachings of Jesus, which promote love, humility, and equal love of all people… not just those of a specific race/gender/ethnicity… and even religion.

Not understanding the evil and counter-Christian ideals that Andrew pushes is concerning. His actions couldn’t be further from the teachings of Christ.

>That wasn't the perspective I got when watching the video

>>I wouldn’t know. I won’t watch that garbage. What I have seen are the countless examples of this in his “debates”. Many of which have clips showing him act as a vile being spewing hate. It’s sickening to watch. And he is not a good model for what the right should be, or what a Christian man should be.

>>>Exactly, so you’re commenting an opinion without actually watching the video, which was the whole point of this post 🙄. People like you are insufferable. You’ll see a few clickbait shorts, form your opinion and then refuse to learn more about it because you’ve made up your mind.

>>>>I’m sorry. But you’re just wrong. And your thinking is dangerous. >>>> >>>>I don’t need to watch a video of Hitler discussing poetry to judge whether or not he is a good person worth listening too… I can make that judgement based off the plethora of other evidence out there. >>>> >>>>He is working on PR because of his disaster of a reputation following explosions he has had of spewing vile things when he gets angry. He is not a good role model, and I would be extremely concerned as to ones character of those that look up to, or support this man. His audience are the people that need Jesus most.

>>>>>So pretty much you don’t have examples to support your accusations and so instead you’re resorting to ad hominem attacks. And when asked to expand on your position, the only thing you can do is more ad hominem attacks…great you’re making for a real convincing position here…

>>>>>>Are you serious? Do I really need to cite the multiple videos of him calling women cunts, and wanting all Muslims removed from the country? And the attacks against gay and trans people? Have you never seen him speak?

>>>>>>>You have definitely being watching propaganda video's >>>>>>> >>>>>>>He was asked directly in the video about gay married and his view was more liberal than the bible.

I love Triggernometry, but this guest fucking sucks. Put this fraud in a room with Sam Harris for 3 minutes and watch him crumble.

>Are u for real? Sam Harris? Hahahahah

You’re making some really broad and generalized misrepresentations about his positions and claiming them as if they’re fact. He isn’t making exclusions of anyone based off of race/gender/ethnicity or religion.

He’s simply saying that the people who vote should be stakeholders in the society because stakeholders are more invested in the outcomes.

He argues for Christian nationalism because like it or not, our morality drives politics and our government and our morality is founded on Christian values, so he’s saying that it makes the most sense to prefer christian nationalism since it preserves our values and ensures the best outcomes for others.

Once again you’re making claims without any evidence. Show me where hes been exclusive to people based off of their race, gender, ethnicity, religion. I’d like to see examples of them all because I haven’t seen him do that. I have seen him “be a dick” to people, but he doesn’t advocate for the exclusion of people based off of immutable characteristics. He usually just has a bad way of delivering his point but it doesn’t in any way invalidate it.

>He literally says in the video that women shouldn't have the right to vote.

Scored the 2014 Mos Eisley Cantina BNIB

I always wanted this set, but I was a student when it was released and money was tight, so I skipped it. I got the smaller one that came out in 2018, which was great, but I always wished there was a bit more to it. The UCS one was/is beyond my price range, so I was very happy to stumble across this for a reasonable price at a convention.

Theory on Jordan Peterson's disappearance

It's now coming up to a year since Jordan Peterson disappeared from public life due to a mystery illness supposedly caused by toxic mold. It's unclear if he'll ever return, and I wanted to share a thought (and it is a thought to quote the man himself) I had about the situation.

This is now Peterson's second disappearance from public life. The first was during the Covid pandemic when he began suffering the effects of Benzo withdrawal and associated complications. Although he did return after that first time, it was clear that he wasn't the same man he'd been before. His commentary became a lot more combative and inflammatory, and he also joined the Daily Wire, which destroyed the thin veneer that he was anything other than another conservative hack. The Israel-Palestine conflict also forced him to come face-to-face with the rank antisemitism that had been festering in his audience, and when he tried to confront it openly, it never went well for him. That's not even to mention his disastrous Jubilee appearance.

Even before his second retirement from public life, I think it was obvious to most people who weren't total sycophants that his moment in the sun had well and truly passed. The monster he'd helped create with his rhetoric and activism had escaped its cage and was eating him alive. The timing of his second retirement was therefore very convenient, coming after months of increasingly embarrassing crash outs. While I'm sure he's not a well chap, part of me wonders whether this second withdrawal might not have been a calculated move to allow him to retire from public life with a measure of his dignity intact before the heat gets turned up even more and the consequences of his actions continue to come back to bite him. If he just said he was done and walked off, people would take that as a signal of defeat, but if his retirement is supposedly due to illness, that shields him from a lot of criticism he'd otherwise receive. Better to die a hero than live long enough to see himself become the villain.

If that is what's happened, it's pretty rank. You can't just lead people into a Christofascist hellscape and then quietly slink off, knowing you won't suffer any consequences from the mess you've created because you're not a member of the groups that will be impacted by your activism.

But like I say, just a thought. I don't really know.

All-Terrain Tactical Command Platform (AT-TCP)

The All-Terrain Tactical Command Platform, better known as the AT-TCP was designed and built by Kuat Drive Yards, becoming a rare example of what was widely considered to be a misstep by the company.

Intended for use by clone commanders to lead from the front while bringing maximum firepower to bear on the enemy, the walker had numerous issues, including its stubby legs rendering the "all terrain" descriptor an egregious misnomer and the driver and gunners' stations being exposed. To compensate for this, a deflector shield was added, but this often caused the walker's power grid to overload.

Many commanders who tried the walker out on the battlefield quickly abandoned it, and the T, C and P in the vehicle's acronym were reapropriated to stand for a variety of colourful curse words. Nevertheless, Commander Bly had a liking for the walker and sometimes used it on Felucia, relying on a skilled Anzellan mechanic to keep it in good working order.

Was a scumbag thing to say but even scumbags have the right to say it.

>I find it strange that a party of people who largely stood against cancel culture… I hear quite a bit of people on here wanting Kimmel canceled.

>>It's retalitory.
>Society collectively decided that having an opinion someone else didn't like means not being able to get an income, so naturally people adopt that tactic and use it on their political opponents.
>It doesn't matter if that person has custom pronouns or a stance against vaccines.

>Yes, he has the right to say it and his employer has the right to fire him. Freedom of speech doesn't mean freedom from consequences.

>And to their employers have a right to fire them.

>> No argument from me there

They cancelled him for like a day after he joked about Charlie Kirk. They won’t do the right thing.

I agree. This guy's been pushing violence just like every other liberal. I used to say it wasn't all liberals, but it's pretty damn close to all of them now. Just seeing how they're going after Charle Kirk's wife because she was crying the other night trying to get out from being killed… that's just beyond evil to me.

Imagine saying these things about Obama. Michelle the expectant widow. He’d have been thrown off the air so fast. And if there was an incident that would be the least of it.
