I forgot to check Reddit last time. They're not biting as hard as I'd hoped. One very notable one did, though.
(Also, is it just me or has the JBP sub become more dick-sucky? Haven't looked at it in months.)
https://www.reddit.com/r/JordanPeterson/comments/amxfg5/nassim_taleb_and_jordan_peterson/Taleb has been on a streak of childish behavior that began with his IQ meltdown. It's disturbing.
Now that he's dumped on Peterson and IQ as a meaasure of intelligence, he's childish, even though Taleb's an arrogant asshole about damn near everything. How did he manage to look past this before. Odd.
The Taleb/Peterson problem is mostly a Taleb problem. It's not that he presents a criticism of the rice, but instead produces a tanrum. It's that he acts out these childish gestures and is quick towards name calling. He jumps right to calling others a Monsanto shill. This is a particularly odd conclusion for Peterson since Jordan has discussed solving world hunger and improving the world. (And its added benefits via childhood nutrition and development.)
"Name calling", ie. virtue signaling is something people I don't like do. Peterson
means it.
One person said this is simply a product of Taleb's culture, that Lebanese Christians are just basic assholes in their interactions with each other.
They are like that. Maybe. I dunno. Someone else said that. Lalala.
