Jonathon Kay- When Disagreement Becomes Trauma
How does one deal with those who claim that debate itself represents an agony beyond human endurance?
Like the report as a whole, the supplied definition of “truthing” contained within is written in a way that makes dissent impossible: It is “the act of stating truths on subject matter considered difficult and/or dangerous knowledge, in contexts of hyper policing, surveilling, and micro-managing of racialized bodies … while simultaneously addressing power relations and injustices which actively interrogate the discomfort, denial, disavowal, erasure, and censure that accompanies truthing the subject-matter.” In other words, to refute a truthing isn’t an act of mere disagreement, but rather a symptom of the truth-denier’s bigotry and intellectual dishonesty.
“This allergy to disagreement is now a growing feature of intellectual life all across Canada.”
Making society ‘stupid’ and confrontational to support ‘stupidity’ is what Trudeau lives for.
It distorts ‘reality’ from ‘Facts Mam, just the Facts’ into an altered state.
Many areas in society ‘LIE!’
That’s right LIE.
Our currency and ownership is experiments…live with it unless you totally REVIEW EVERYTHING.
Putting a price on everything isn’t really working…
We have so much RENEWABLE RESOURCES and yet NO VIABLE SOLUTION to take care of it.
It is called stupid.
I’m going to have a lot of fun with this. If that’s all it takes to freak these people out into a meltdown, I’m going to be the guy walking around saying “well, aktchually…” all friggin’ day long.
Let the games begin!!!
Prog heads exploding.
He is making fun of people on Twitter.
Very enjoyable.
After reading the word salad diatribe in the header, I thought, OK, I’ll bite, and I read the entire item.
My main conclusion is that these idiot people (apologies to idiots) have way to much time on their hands, and perhaps they should take a peek outside their magic kingdom. There’s a real world out there, with real difficult turbulent problems that are facing mankind as a whole, and their mind numbing diatribe about defending woke POC and querty types, is what are euphemistically considered “first world problems”. which are so stupidly trivial compared to actual reality. These idiots need to grow up, develop some thicker skin, and apply themselves to joining the rest of us on the three D chess board of life. Lewis C Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland, appears to be normal reality in their myopic world view! Really,…. this…. is why civilization is falling apart, because they expect normal people to cater to their childish and petulant narcissistic whims!
Although the left is developing an extreme adversion to debate, it’s getting difficult to find respectful debate on any part of the political spectrum. I notice in particular that young people instinctively attack the motives of their opponents rather than their arguments. Some of them become bewildered when you tell them that’s something they ought to avoid.
Adversion? I meant inversion. No, no, perversion.
Aversion is the correct term, often confused with being adverse.
Averse, adverse, perverse, reverse. Etc,
Grammar is weird, eh?
The victimhood industry is an industry that requires moving the goalposts in order to remain relevant and lucrative.
Having someone supposedly be rude to you is on par with suffering the horrors of the Holocaust (not that these nobs believe that the Holocaust happened but that’s for another day).
So Jonathan Kay, the guy who wrote a book about conspiracy theories, and specifically how disagreeing with almost anything considered mainstream is conspiracy nuttery, now wonders what happened to dialogue? You happened you preppy twat! You and a thousand other “journalists” who thought you had a monopoly on thought and conversation.
Great.
Back in the days of my youth,my youngest brother evolved a theory.
The Bar Scene being what it was the social experience was as follows.
Catch the eye of pretty girl..set off jealous wanna be boyfriend..leading to stupid conversation and confrontation..A word ..a shout..a push.. a punch..
He just cut right through the BS,as soon as the poser said”You blahh blahh MY Girlfriend”,he just hauled off and decked ’em.
He said it saved endless time and aggravation,,worked pretty well in the mating game as well.
Academia is where intelligence went to die.
Some ideas are so stupid,so utterly impossible to believe,that only a “University Trained Mind” can do so.
So now that doubting the belief of a nitwit is,” to cause them trauma” and you will be punished accordingly..we are free at last.
Smile nicely,reach out and grab both their ears and give them a Liverpool Kiss..In the most loving manner possible..
Trauma..
They want trauma?
or is this another “Red Queen” use of language?
Funny thing,in hindsight children have perfect instincts.
Those cretins who used to get beat up all the time..
Look where they went to hide and nurse their delusions of adequacy..
The kids were right.
On the plus side, it’s these “intellectuals” that will perish first when society collapses. When basic survival becomes the order of the day, that masters degree they all hold in Qwerty Grievance Theory or some similar Little Bo Peep diploma*, will be of no tangible use to sustain them and they will be the first to succumb to starvation.
* shout out to the Zappa fans!
“Flakes”
“Dumb all over an a little ugly on the side”
And of course our Presstitutes..”I am the Slime”.
Frankie was way ahead of his time.
Just like debating Colon, except she’s less polite.
Pedophiles are preying on kids in schools all over the country, food plants are burning down, churches got torched by the dozen, pastors imprisoned, we have Ministries of Truth, WEF fanboys standing with Schiff, the Turd, Biden, Soros, Pelosi and the Ukraine, runaway inflation with no end in sight, old ladies trampled by stormtroopers on horses, etc, but its OK, Jordan has a platform, and Musk bought Twitter, so everything is fine.
The left is willing to burn cities, the right won’t even draw blood, and if anyone on the “right” did, the rest of the right would join the left to condemn violence, rat out their own people and bask in the virtue of it all.
Idiots everywhere.
Hi Ho
Once you make that first step,you are committed.
Is that a place you want to go?
When you assess the nature of those who assail us,you may decide half measures serve no purpose..
Are you willing to extinguish the person you are now?
To say goodbye to the comforts and peace of mind you have spent your lifetime developing?
Are you willing to throw everything you built and most of what you value,to correct behaviour that will bring its own punishment?
Are these parasites worth it?
Sure we are all capable of orgies of violence and destruction..
Which is why our only request has been “Please leave me alone”.
To make that option real are you willing to kill yourself?
For that is the result,you can never return to where you used to call home.
Unfortunately our Progressive comrades believe all humans are as useless as they are.
As easily led and as easily perverted as they be..
Tolerance is a mighty fine thing.
Intolerance is a mighty hard world..
Are you certain your way is best ?
So right that you would impose it on others?
By force?
We are always making trade offs.
For doubt is the chastity of the mind..
Only Libtards are absolutely sure of everything.
Let us examine Colon and her positions:
1. Wanted Derek Chauving to go down for “killing” George Floyd. This woman has explicitly said that the perversion of justice by the courts is fine as long as someone she hates goes down. Has she met Derek? No, she just hates cops, like most semi-successfull prostitutes do.
2. Voted CPC when the CPC platform included vax passports, gun confiscation, special gay identity politics, etc.
3. Called the people who would vote for the only federal party not to espouse these ideas “cultists.”
4. Called a man (me) who said the truckers should defend themselves from the cops he claims to hate so much a “radical”, suggested he (I) wanted them to “martyr themselves.”
5. Wants to force Russian nationals in Canada to disavow Putin, on pain of internment camps, or worse.
6. Calls Russians “Siberian Mongols”, despite all that Russia has added to civilization, like Dostoyevsky, Tolstoy, Berezki Dancing, AKs, good Vodka, and so on.
8. Revels in the possible genocide of Russian Christians.
9. Says all Russian women are ho’s who love to abort their babies.
10. Tries to use the lack of indoor plumbing as an attack on the Russian poor who lack it, but ignores the fact that much of Eastern Europe has this issue.
11. Thinks the cops he hates so much should crack down on bicycle riders, because she hates bicycle riders, too. In the abscence of police enforcement, she want to be allowed to run them down with her car.
12. Would happily genocide bicycle riders, and Russian schoolgirls.
13. Stands firmly with Adam Schiff, Nancy Pelosi, Justin Trudeau, Joe Biden, Carlos Schwab and George Soros.
So, she hates cops, but wants cops to crack down on the objects of her insane hatreds. This woman is no conservative, rather, she is an insane bigoted libtard who would make even the purest Twitterati blush.
