It's not like me buying a Yukio Mishima novel, a great writer who's also dead and seeing none of the few quid I threw at it. So if she'd waited until Peterson was dead to buy the book, she'd meet with your approval? Quote

It’s difficult to know how to combat the message being shared; I definitely think harm can - and does - come from listening to it, or platforming it. For example - Brexit, vaccine denial; hatred of refugees, benefit recipients and trans people; and climate change denial. (Clearly one for a different thread - but I do understand why people object to this, even though it doesn’t necessarily mean Bayley is a right wing extremist herself) Edited August 19, 2023 by RedRooster Quote
