Hello everyone, a few days ago I penned an irritated tweet in
response to one of the latest happenings on the increasingly
heated culture war front in response to the decision of an actress,
actor named Ellen, Elliot Page.
I am employing this awkward and impossible naming style because it is
now apparently mandatory and I'm probably doing it wrong nonetheless,
as you're doing it wrong is the whole point of what has been made mandatory.
But also I'm trying to make a point,
I've essentially been banned from twitter as a consequence.
I say banned, although technically I have been suspended but
the suspension will not be lifted unless I delete the hateful tweet in question and
I would rather die than do that and hopefully it will not come to that.
>> Yeah, well no, I don't think you're gonna have to die,
I don't think it's going to come to that.
I think you are choosing to do this, you are choosing to make yourself out to be
a victim for money and for fame and for notoriety on the right.
That's all this is, we know exactly what it is,
that's why he is currently suspended.
That's why Dave Rubin is also suspended after violating twitter's hate speech
guidelines.
Now he is elevating himself to be a victim, he has no idea why I've been,
all I did was screenshot Jordan Peterson and
then also I dead named Elliot Page exactly the same and I did it intentionally.
And so I've been suspended for the exact same reason and I knew I would, but
now I'm gonna pretend that I have no idea why that is and
what do you know I've been canceled.
And I'm gonna go on tons of shows and all sorts of things to publicize this and
make tons of money for how canceled I've become.
That's all this is but that isn't why I really wanted to talk about this,
the reason that they have been canceled.
We can argue about whether twitter should have the particular guidelines that it
does, but they knew what the guidelines were and they chose to violate them.
They either believe that corporations can set guidelines for you using their totally
optional private service or you don't believe that you're right wingers,
you definitely believe they shouldn't be overly regulated, so this is what you get,
they get to make these decisions.
That's not what I'm talking about this, I wanna dive into more about Jordan Peterson
and the ridiculous stuff that he did right there.
But first Francesco, what do you think about these suspensions?
>> I mean I think he was right he to be suspended, obviously I don't think that
misgendering or dead naming someone who's trans could get you suspended or
should get you suspended but I definitely think that if you're
Jordan Peterson twitter knows exactly what you're doing.
Twitter knows exactly that you're going after trans people,
just like you go after women whose body type doesn't get you horny.
Like literally this guy is so effing fragile but he also called
Elliot Page's surgeon a criminal, criminal for performing top surgery.
You're like no, no, no, you don't get to call people criminal, I'm sorry,
you don't get to do that.
And so I think it's on a long list of stuff that Jordan Peterson has done but
bless him for this amazing.
We talked about it in the situation room bonus episode, him and
his little men's warehouse outfit going to his little homecoming, his little incel
homecoming and there he goes and he's, this is an impossible naming standard.
It's not impossible, you just did it, it's Elliot now,
he's a he, he's done, papa, it's impossible.
>> Well hold on because it's actually, you're being fair but
you're almost being too fair to him, he said there Ellen, Elliot, he,
she that's the standard, I'm probably getting it wrong.
No, you're intentionally getting it wrong, look, I don't think you're nearly as
intelligent as you've convinced some young men to think that you are but
you're definitely intelligent enough to know that, so
let's be let's be clear about that.
He is very intentionally pretending to not understand something,
now if you want to look up to a person who would do that as your intellectual icon,
the avatar of all that is logical and reasonable, you can choose to do that.
But let's be clear about the fact that he's playing you,
he's pretending that this is an impossible thing to understand, it is not.
And by the way I think that if it wasn't clear that you were operating out of
animus and out of bad faith, I think, and it's on me to determine that a lot of
trans people would be very understandable if you occasionally made a slip up.
But when you're you're intentionally pretending that this is an impossible,
what is the latin derivation for your new?
No, it's Elliot, it's Elliot, you can remember Elliot and
by the way you don't have to talk about this person ever.
Now I would say it requires nothing of you to extend to a person calling them by
the name that they want.
Just that is the most base level, we live in a society stuff right there,
but you could also choose to not talk about this actor.
I'm probably outside of these issues, never gonna talk about this actor,
cuz it's one person.
You're choosing to attack this person in the same way that he chose to attack
that swimsuit model that I guess didn't make him hard or whatever.
He is purposefully doing this stuff and then saying, I guess the culture war is
coming for me, no you are trying to make your name for yourself.
Make money, sell books by engaging with these things and
the culture war is not Elliot expecting you to not be an a hole.
The culture war is the ongoing war against trans people,
against the entire LGBTQ plus community that you all have been persecuting for
years in lieu of actually taking governance seriously.
You are engaging in that war, some people expect just like a little bit
of decency or at least to be ignored, you have chosen to go after Elliot,
that's what you chose to do, Jordan Peterson.
>> Amen.
>> And if I could go just a little bit farther,
we're not gonna show you other videos or whatever but you can watch because
that was not the entirety of his overly dramatically lit, like God,
it's so pathetic and cringy and needy, how could you possibly look up to this person?
He said unless I take down my hateful tweet and what he's projecting there is
all I did was say the name that I think is objectively true,
there's nothing hateful about it.
And virtually every one of the almost all guys who follow Jordan Peterson would say,
he is just an intellectual,
he is just being logical why are you all being emotional?
I want you to watch the other videos that he put up because at
one point he goes on and does his thing again, Elliott Ellen, he,
she whatever it wants to be named and he is so clearly enraged by this person.
He wants to pretend that it was just a mistake, it was just an accident,
no it was an intentional thing being driven by his rage against
this individual in this community, he has overcome by emotion.
They all are, they play it up for the show cuz they gotta fill hours or whatever, but
there's something messed up about them where they freak out about this community.
They're not Vulcans, they're not raw logic and reason, they are being emotional.
If you cannot simply say, Elliot, okay,
I'm gonna go back to never thinking about you again, there is something
fundamentally broken about you that you can't do that, that is so base level.
>> But he also never thought about Elliot Page when Ellio,t before
Elliot transitioned, just never.
And other than to maybe be like,
I'm totally not attracted to that actress in Juneau, like not hot, right?
Like you only think about Elliot because they're trans, that's it, so anyway.
>> Yeah, exactly, you don't have to understand it.
Your apparently, you're supposed to be an intellectual, you're supposed to be
curious if anyone could be expected to have the natural curiosity,
open mindedness to actually learn about this community,
it would be you clearly you don't have that.
You cannot rise to that level, so just go about your business.
You don't need to interact with the trans community literally at all,
you don't need to opine on them.
You don't have to,
you're choosing to do that you're pretending to be victimized for money,
that is pathetic and I'm not getting through to him, he's not gonna watch us.
But if even one person who might come across one of his books and
be convinced all through marketing, all through pr,
this guy is just trying to get men to be responsible and clean their rooms.
No, that's not what he is doing,
what he's trying to do is indoctrinate them into a fascist worldview.
A worldview that despises difference and diversity, despises open mindedness,
compassion, empathy, curiosity, that's what they're doing.
Yeah, the front door to that disgusting building is just clean your room and
be more responsible.
But take a look inside and you'll get what he's selling today.
