@d3fec767 Aside from his rise to fame, based on complete bullshit, proving he was a grifter, from the get go ...
He also proved he was a grifter, by peddling his daughter's all meat diet as a cure for anxiety and depression, on Rogan's show, claiming he no longer needed drugs, and hadn't taken any for 6 months. That was a few months before being sent to Russia, to be forced into a coma, to break his addiction to the very drugs he claimed he no longer needed.
His drug addiction, and mental health problems, also proved he was a grifter, that didn't believe in his own rules, about putting your own house in order, before telling others what to do.
He is, objectively, a con artist, proven numerous times.

@user-nc9pc3gr4c Lol, yes, that's what religions have been, Mickey Mouse. It was "ingrained in us"? We used it to explain that the sun was being pulled across the sky by a "god", that rain was product by a "god", that the Earth was created from the body of a dragon by a "god", etc., etc., etc. That we did a stupid thing, for millennia, isn't evidence it's right. Who knows, what came before, if anything, or if things have been cycling in an eternal collapse and regrowth. Your own belief, that a being can exist from nothing, or eternally, without being created, supports the argument that something can exist from nothing, or eternally, without being created.

@michaelpeyton5730 Sounds like you don't know how C-16 actually works. You probably got your info from lying Peterson. In the US, you can get charged, or sued, for threatening, defaming, verbally harrassing, etc., an individual. However, you can basically say whatever you want about an entire group of people, like promoting that all gays should be killed. That's crazy. All of those laws protecting individuals, plus things like conspiracy to commit, and incitement, are anti-speech laws, even in the US. No country has unlimited free speech. There's no such thing in existence. Never has been.
Hate speech laws, in Canada, basically treat that kind of speech, against groups, the same as it applies to individuals. C-16 basically makes it clear, that trans are protected, under those laws. You can't get charged, for accidentally using the wrong pronoun, or anything like that. But, repeatedly using the wrong pronoun, intentionally, can be considered rising to a level of harassment, much like your boss, or teacher, calling you "dickhead" everyday. People can more easily understand that "dickhead" is harassment, but less so that intentionally using the wrong pronoun is. The law clarifies things.
That same law, btw, was already in place, at the provincial level, in multiple provinces, for years, including the province JP worked and lived in. And yet, he had zero examples, to support his bullsh*t slippery slope argument. There are still zero examples to support his bullsh*t slippery slope argument. He had been working under that law, for years, so when he made his "alpha" claim, that he'd use whatever pronouns he wanted ... that seemed to coincide with the law, for all those years.
