having a degree at least proves that you took the time to study shit. that's more than most people can say.
taking the medical industry for example, yes there's a ton of snake oil being pushed in it right now. but at the end of the day, I would still trust a surgeon to do my medical procedure over some dude off the street.
you want an Inquisition? my post history is plain to see. my convictions have largely not changed.
As far as my username goes, it's derived from how batshit the left has gotten. I consider myself in line with a lot of mainstream left as policies circa the 90s and 00s. but the left swung so hard into collectivism and authoritarianism, that without doing anything I became a heretic to leftist dogma within a few years, pretty much exactly overlapping with the gamergate controversy.
My guy, you simply don’t recognize that what is happening is the end result of those policies you like, just taken to their logical conclusion. Liberalism will always devolve to this.
we are surrounded by authoritarians on all sides right now because power corrupts, and only those that seek power run for office. I reject the notion that what we are dealing with is the end result of any (actual) liberal ideology.
inb4 but muh mass immigration, muh homeless crisis, muh niggers!
all these issues stem from welfare slavery, importing desperate people and then addicting them to government handouts and making them dependent. that's not liberalism. the welfare state was one of the leftist positions that I universally rejected growing up.
Replies got mixed up. I was commenting on what you said about "at least graduates studied something," an idea which I can assure you has some footnotes to mention.

I’m not listening to you until we suss out your heretic status
Well what desires are impish? How far do we want to go down this rabbit hole?
I just want to point at others, please leave me out of this

Sounds like you're arguing that the course of history is predetermined by a dialectical process.
Pretty Marxist way to think lol.
I live in Canada, so I'll take the street dude.
But this just isn't true categorically, and my stint as a college essay writer for chinese cheaters is proof.
that would be called cheating, a form of fraud. with the amount of scrutiny that Peterson is under, they would have found fraud if it was there.
