Anti-revolutionary. I'm all about changing things, but only incrementally and through consensus. Pedant, but not IRL. Possibly immortal (we'll see).

@jordanbpeterson Hi I was just watching your 2017 Maps of Meaning lecture #2 and you mention a film you can't remember the name of but had been looking for.
I think this may be it: https://t.co/aX5Ds8nqkv

Well, I said before this current sojourn into Twitter would be brief, and it turned out to last for a couple of months. But this is it for now at least. If I have any self-control you'll rarely ever see me here. Twitter is more bad than good (for me anyway). So long for now.

@meatthenpudding @thehouyhnhnm Yep. Much of the world is blatantly unfair. That's a good example.

[Positive Improvement @PositiveImprove]

@meatthenpudding @thehouyhnhnm You shouldn't feel either.

You can tell what someone's true beliefs are by seeing how they react when things don't go their way.

Weird to see a news anchor argue that his audience is better served by vague platitudes instead of accurate information. https://t.co/dOdvmJiSLL

@gazeofhorus Me too mate

@Nicole22185 I'd wager if you guessed zero you'd be pretty darn close.

Wait, what? No Tom.
Prospective students *need* to be told tuition fees are expensive because higher education is not free and someone, somewhere will need to pay for it at some point. https://t.co/BfPPVZqhml

[Tom Harwood @tomhfh]

Last night I called out the Labour Party and the NUS for trying to scare prospective students about tuition fees.

Great. What are his specific ideas for improved "gun control" and what evidence does he have that these ideas are practical and would actually prevent school shootings *in America*? https://t.co/NdS6MyjaqE

James Corden makes powerful call for gun control: "We've done this too many times" https://t.co/L14S5vfJGd

@Nicole22185 It doesn't help either that the internet and social media make it extremely easy to block entire viewpoints from ever entering your field of vision.

How about we be opposed to massive oligarchical corporations controlling the media AND government influence on the media. Is that too nuanced a position for everyone to hold? https://t.co/GuhOGS4OIm

[Clive Lewis MP @labourlewis]

The fact you’re prepared to call our current oligarchical, billionaire dominated media a ‘free press’ tells me all I need to know about your lopsided, deluded, libertarian claptrap. There are elements of our media I’m proud of. But also just as much to be concerned about. https://t.co/Nd6WPMf3Su

If someone stops talking to a everyone from a massive, diverse group of people because some members of that group act like insulting idiots, then that someone is part of the problem in the world. https://t.co/Iy6xGZnulw

@Nicole22185 Although a lot of them have been, of course.

[Positive Improvement @PositiveImprove]

@Nicole22185 I'm just thinking about my own past and seeing that not all the emotional knee jerk reactions I've made in my life have been regrettable.

[Positive Improvement @PositiveImprove]

@Nicole22185 Oh of course. I would never make anything close to a lasting decision based solely on an emotional knee jerk reaction.

[Positive Improvement @PositiveImprove]

I honestly wonder if a great many people are living right now with undiagnosed PTSD from Trump winning the election. It would certainly explain a lot.

[Positive Improvement @PositiveImprove]

@Nicole22185 I don't know about that. I think they can be useful as long as they are seen for what they are and treated accordingly.

If you're a white person in South Africa, it would probably be a good idea to sell any land or businesses you own and move to another country. https://t.co/H3Qw9G3F8w

This kind of response to hypothetical questions always bothers me. Rather than actually seriously considering the scenario presented, people attack the validity of the question.
