Jordan Peterson is to men's liberation as Rush Limbaugh is to women's liberation.

This community is first and foremost a feminist community for men and masc people, but it is also a place to talk about men’s issues with a particular focus on intersectionality.
Rules
Everybody is welcome, but this is primarily a space for men and masc people
Non-masculine perspectives are incredibly important in making sure that the lived experiences of others are present in discussions on masculinity, but please remember that this is a space to discuss issues pertaining to men and masc individuals. Be kind, open-minded, and take care that you aren't talking over men expressing their own lived experiences.
Be productive
Be proactive in forming a productive discussion. Constructive criticism of our community is fine, but if you mainly criticize feminism or other people's efforts to solve gender issues, your post/comment will be removed.
Keep the following guidelines in mind when posting:
- Build upon the OP
- Discuss concepts rather than semantics
- No low effort comments
- No personal attacks
Assume good faith
Do not call other submitters' personal experiences into question.
No bigotry
Slurs, hate speech, and negative stereotyping towards marginalized groups will not be tolerated.
No brigading
Do not participate if you have been linked to this discussion from elsewhere. Similarly, links to elsewhere on the threadiverse must promote constructive discussion of men’s issues.

I'd like to be liberated from Jordan Peterson and the whole business behind defining men.
You know bitmojis? Make the thumbnail look like that but worse, and made in mspaint
stunningly brilliant assessment, GOAT
down vote satire that you can't comprehend, keep it coming. rolls eyes
I downvote anything with Jordan Peterson's name in a positive or neutral context, just to be safe before watching. I've reversed my vote. You're okay OP.
BTW, JayPee fans please downvote me too. Your disapproval nourishes me.
Am I at risk for a ban?
No, it's definitely true no one really watched this before downvoting it. I think that's the problem of posting context-less videos however; people will just assume from the title what it contains and not watch it. So maybe a description or something next time would be a good idea.
glad to see ignorance of down voting without cluing into the video mocking JP, well done non-thinkers
People here very rarely click through to videos (I'm working on that). In the future I recommend putting comedy or satire somewhere in the title so people don't assume it's an endorsement.
damn the ignorance is strong
