She breaks it down pretty succinctly and with actual knowledge from having read actual philosophers. One of her aces in the hole is that she has academic training in philosophy and isn't just an ignorant Sargon regurgitating atheist forum dogma.

Funny video. I dunno why Peterson sticks with a pointless term like "post-modernist Neo-Marxists" when its really just the degenerate left.

I can't help but suspect anyone who uses the word "degenerate" of being a fascist. It's just not a word real people use. Like "smut".

It's a a nice catch all term for anyone who falls outside of left-of-center tbh, AKA a lot of the crazier ones that you see get pitted against Peterson at some of his panels. I know a few people who lump them under the term "the alt left" but "degenerate" is more amusing.

What is the alt-left? That sounds like a term to give a false equivalence to the alt-right for conservatives looking to take the magnifying glass off of them.

And "degenerate" is very much a moral, social term and not a political term.

Yeah but I'm talking more about would-be progressives who shut down debate. They're just like those goofs that lobbied big bucks to FB, Twitter, etc. to shut down Alex Jones.

Why are they degenerate? Are you just using edgelord terminology or is there a point?

I've never even heard a definition, not only of the alt-left, but even of what constitutes an alt-left position. It's so imaginary that the concept doesn't even exist but in the minds of conservatives who heard the term and just liked the sound of it.
