Jordan Peterson to get “retrained?”

Why not call them mediaeval Roman Catholics? It makes as much sense. Plenty of groups have exhibited intolerance and a holier than though attitude through the years, but for some reason we always jump to Nazi.

Are you honestly saying the "good they've done for the world" / "bad they've done in the world" scorecard for Roman Catholics and Nazis is the same?

Actually, I don't think Mr. Putin likes free speech.
You are correct. Putin also likes to refer to his neighbours who don’t share his views as Nazis.
I personally agree for the most part with Peterson in this instance. His professional college however is not governed and staffed by Nazis and nor is the judge in this case a Nazi. Officious meddlers and busybodies without question, but not jackboot Nazis.
Well, to be fair, I don't honestly think Peterson is trying to say these people are trying to orchestrate genocides. He's said many times that this kind of behavior is precisely how you ramp up to Nazism, which I think is true. It'd be a long road to get there, but if that was our aim, this kind of thing would be our first stop.
Nazis believed they were building some kind of great society for themselves by cleansing the world of unmentionables. That kind of rhetoric is absolutely shared by the woke left, who view the right as the cause of what they perceive as the world's ills. It's their fault for the climate crisis so poor rural conservatives don't deserve energy access. Their conspiracy of white males sitting in positions of power and wealth sounds similar to the anti-Jewish rhetoric of the 30s.
I also don't think these people are Nazis. But I also think that, knowingly or not, they and others are playing around with national socialism. They'd call it something else of course, but followers saw it very differently 80 years ago, too.
Well, to be fair, I don't honestly think Peterson is trying to say these people are trying to orchestrate genocides. He's said many times that this kind of behavior is precisely how you ramp up to Nazism…
My argument is not with Peterson’s references to the term. It is with those sloppy thinkers who employ it as did the Honourable Poster from Louisiana.

I think he would confine it to a certain timeframe.
OTOH, National Socialism didn't rise to domination in the early 30's, without a lot of positive actions, which actually drew praise from many prominent people around the world.

I think a comparison to intolerant religious thinking is more appropriate. The Nazis are too extreme. There was little well-meaning about them, and many on the woke side are well-meaning,.

The only reason I can think that you're using to use such a silly analogy is to score points against people you don't like and maybe defend people you do, rather than try to accurately describe the situation.

It's probably not the case that Nazi supporters considered themselves to be ill-meaning at the time.
Education is extremely important.

I'm not the one making ludicrous comparisons between Canadians and the Nazis, which was my original point. You can see how stupid my analogy is, but not the other one?
The attitudes of modern liberals are extremely similar to those of intolerant religious people.

What do you mean, "we can all see"? I didn't mention Hitler in any of my above responses.
I did describe where I think comparisons between Nazism and this kind of behavior exist, so instead of speaking for me maybe reread what I said to Renauda.

You did accuse me of disliking Catholics, however - so 10 demerit points to you! I never accused you of disliking Canadians, or for that matter Nazis.
