Jordan Peterson.

You don't think extremely short people might also have issues? It sounded like you were comparing merely short and extremely tall, a kind of a duhhh point, IMO.

Wtf. Go back and actually read the conversation.

You are lost

And yea, dwarves have health problems

Where is your justification?

Well, I adore Brand, because I identify with him more. I think thirty percent of my posts here are "why?" or "what makes you believe that?" because that is inherently my main thought process. Why. Why do we say we things we do? Is it selfishness or cowardice that dictates our position? and is there inherently anything wrong with either?

I like Jordan.. I find him to be far removed from reality though, I think the people that seek him ask a question but only for an answer that blames someone else. I think he's very important, his fans are very dumb, and people not understanding his suffering don't understand who he is. I really hope he becomes less concerned about money and more concerned about using his intellect for intellect.

Rogan is a product of working hard. Say what you want about the dude, but he is an absolute testament to confidence in your ability and doing what you want. I like Rogan, I just find him to be trying unless he's around certain types of people.

So my girl isn't an SEO guru and didn't come up first. She's pretty funny despite not being so well known, IMO.

Gates testified that Stone called Trump and although he didn't hear the call afterwards Trump turned to him and said they're getting more dirt from wikileaks. It's really bad.

Bad, yes, but have they shown Trump knew by then it was coming from the Russians? If so, it's damning. If not, his supporters will throw it on the pile with the fraud conviction. Trumpers will seek any angle that suggests lack of intent on Trump's part. They're all about that plausible deniability, don'tcha know.

Sooner or later it may be an effective strategy to deal with progression in a way that we accept Fault and repercussions for our actions.

LOL no. I was pointing out an obvious glitch in SBJJ's logic. Nothing to do with the quality of people other than his deliberate misstatement of what I said.

Oh that doesn't take much.. then. Also answer the question I've posted.

"Intellectuals"?

Oh I like you dude but shut the fuck up. You're as cocky as I am but you willfully lack self awareness. All three are modern day surface face but well meaning philosophers and they impact society the way pop philosophy has since forever.

You could not be a cunt and actually have a discussion for once.

I think when he said “hey Russia if you’re listening....” gave it away. But even if not we know wilileaks did get the emails from Russian hackers. Should it matter if they used a third party?

Looks to me like you answered your own question if it's a target you're looking for.
But if it's the "intellectuals" question, Rogan is the most open to differing points of view and capable of amending his when he learns he is wrong about something. That last part puts him ahead of many and ahead of almost all the WR. The other two, meh, dunno Brand and just enough of Peterson to detest him.

Read between the lines of the last 6 months:

1. The mods in the War Room have to project a veneer of political impartiality.

2. One side has significantly more rule breaking behavior than the other, to the point that containment has been deemed more effective than infractions.

3. That same side is also significantly more likely to raise a stink about infractions levied based on that behavior.

4. There's a longstanding accusation of "Left Wing Bias" of the mods in the War Room.

They've all but told you what exactly is going on.

The right wing rabble is the primary target audience of MMA websites. MMA popularity is dwindling, hence, desperate measures to keep the forum traffic up. It's like Sean Spicer pleading to partisan politics to compensate for his poor dancing. Just look at the street fight forum - you can't tell me that's not just a horrendous ploy for forum traffic aimed at the flip side of the same coin as world star hip hop.

What are you going on about? Please quote what your problem is?

Seriously. Quote me.

And quote my misstatement of what you said. I mean, are you confusing posts?

When it comes to culpability on Trump's part, yes. That's why I'm asking. What's the timeline on the "Russia are you listening" comment relative to this thing? Before or after?

I'll give you Peterson, as he is actually qualified, and even though I think he's a bit of a grifter, I don't doubt his overall intellectual prowess. Rogan and Brand though? They're no more of an intellectual than a rambling drug addict who went to college. You or I could banter with them, and keep up. Not exactly next level stuff. I don't think either of them would disagree either.

I don't give that much of a shit. I intended it as a 1-off comment. I didn't expect a serious reply because my point was obvious (or so I thought). Anyway, I quoted you every time I replied to you, didn't? You said you think extremely tall people have more health problems than short people. It's such a delightfully vague assertion that you can always be arguably correct about that so it doesn't mean much without specifics. When asked for them you got defensive. Now that I've shown a second time "what [my] problem is", I'm going to bed. Time to move on.
