Spent the day hanging out with my aunt, who was just finishing up a big European trip. It was a pretty good day!
Right up until, in the intermission of the play we were seeing, she started talking about how much she loves Jordan Peterson, listens to all his podcasts, and I should too.
Damn. It's always so easy to think that the poison isn't in *your* backyard, y'know? But it is. Fuckin old white people just love to hear how Free Speech is the most important thing, and PC = bad

@fineursine eh, you can definitely relate. Sorry for your recent family stuff too, my dude

@fineursine it's a weird-ass thing with non-Americans, people who will excoriate the US president specifically, and then espouse the exact same shit that got him in.
I don't know if that's better or worse than having family who vote for him. I guess it's just different. Certainly tiring, if nothing else.
Anyway, sorry. Thanks for the commiserations, I appreciate it.
