@abucci Oh yes, if we're talking "rhetoric" or what I like to call "talking a whole bunch of nothing", politician are exceptionally good at this. THey can dorna on for ~20mins or more and say absolutely fucking nothing of value or meaning. It's hilariously sad to watch.~
@abucci Well I think its stupid. It doesn't fool me (even if some ideas I find "okay" and "acceptable", and others I find questionable at best). Using too many words is frankly inefficient and just confusing, I _actually_ think of people that cannot speak concisely and clearly (as you put it) as not confident in what they're saying, or just non-articulate in the first place.

@abucci So.. Glad we're talking about something I can relate to, instead of the "man" (which I care little for really). So tell me... Let's assume for a moment that an answer to a question would be met with so many words you don't know what the answer was at all. Why? Why do this? Is this a stereotype of academics and philosophers? If so, it's not a very straight-forward way of thinking, let alone answering a simple question.
> There are people in academia who believe adult men should be able to have sex with children, legally, too
That's disgusting. I take great offense to this. Don't ever let me meet such persons 🤣

@chunkimo Also in terms of your desire to write another UI/UX for Yarn.social in some other language, you basically just need to follow the specs. I can help you with this, you can basically come up with whatever UI/UX you want in whatever language you want. The only requirement is that you stick to the specs and extensions we developed which you can find documented at https://yarn.social/ 👌

I wish we could all talk about things at an intellextual level rather than devolving to the worst in us 🤦♂️
It's far more productive to talk about the ideas rather than the person that presented those ideas 👌
There's a football saying:

@shreyan Yeah I agree, sadly though I've kind of learned (the hard way) that you cannot really have genuine open and honest discussions that even are even a wee bit touchy or controversial on any medium, not even in real life. The interactions between myself and a few others over the past few days makes me very sad, sad to the point where I genuinely think that building Yarn.social was a waste of time, because fundamentally it can never promote free speech, free ideas and good discussions. Why? Because we (as humans) are not capable of this. 🤦♂️

@abucci Yeah, and it looks like (correct me if I'm wrong) his discussions women, sophisticated women and comparisons to property crimes is quite recent. As a clinical psychologist (which is is) I can understand and pick apart what he's saying from a psychological point of view, the problem is its rather provoking and I don't quite agree with it. I think it's easy to take Jordan Peterson out of context here, and maybe we are? -- I feel like he should have chosen his words a bit better here. I'm quite confident that if you asked him directly "do you support rape", or "is rape ok" he would flat out say no. I'm a bit on the fence on this one just because of his background and how complex language can be to convey.

@chunkimo By all means! 🙏 What I meant by "boring" is we (as a community) aren't really interested in emulating anything like Twitter/Mastodon/etc A lot of the principles of what we've built are laid out in [About Yarn.social[(https://yarn.social/about.html)

For example, he talks about "shophistied women" and how "having prior positive relationships" with other men (fathers, brothers) are more likely to express their strong "no" stange to pushy men. He might be talking purely from a psychological standpoint at this point, but geez, he really should have just said outright from the start "rape is wrong" (or something) and been a bit more careful with his words.
I also don't need "men" to tell me that rape is wrong ffs 🤦♂️

@abucci Okay, your point on strange (borderline dangerous) ideas on "rape" are spot on. I found this video and comentrary (sadly which was more annoying than helpful). As someone with much experience with sexual abuse, etc, I find his views on this to be umm how shall I put this. Suptid?
