Bari Weiss, Joe Rogan, and Jordan Peterson: A Match Made in Tikvah Trumpscum Heaven!
I do not usually get involved with the Internet Podcast wars, as the various social media networks provide just so much idiotic blather in their reductive meme-ification of serious matters that need to be discussed with more intellectual knowledge and book resources.
But I was interested when I heard that Trumpscum Alt-Right racist Joe Rogan fueled one of these battles between his equally vile pal Jordan Peterson and the African-American scholar Michael Eric Dyson:
I have not focused much on Peterson in the past, as the Neo-Con Jews have taken on Jonathan Haidt as their go-to authority on similar matters:

https://tikvahfund.org/faculty/jonathan-haidt/
https://tikvahfund.org/college-3/jpc2020/overview/
The idea being that he is considered to be less freighted with Right Wing racist political baggage, making the choice that much more nefarious:

But it remains clear that in the Neo-Con WOKE Trumpist Alt-Right Intersectionality bubble, and its attendant Cancel Culture Troll the Libs ethos, Peterson continues to remains a figure that we should all be aware of.
In looking back at the SHU table of contents, I found a number of articles from SHU luminaries Bari Weiss and Yoram Hazony that place the New Fascist racism represented by Peterson in its proper Tikvah context.
Indeed, I have just posted a number of articles from Forward writers and editors Rob Eshman and Batya Ungar-Sargon – the latter having moved on to stink up an equally reactionary Newsweek – that further allow us to see how this Neo-Con Intersectionality works, and how it has consumed a Jewish world where The Tikvah Fund reigns supreme:

This comes in addition to the latest monstrosity from Bret Jewish Genius Stephens and his SAPIR Journal, which also unites so many of the Neo-Con voices that so proudly represent the Trumpist Revolt against Democracy and Torah Judaism, without ever really mentioning His Holy Name:

And Bari Weiss’ snap defense of Federalist Society Cato Institute Trumpscum racist Ilya Shapiro, depressing darling of Georgetown Law School, who has taken the anti-Biden Troll the Libs Rufo Institute ethos to depressingly new lows, as he aggressively reinforces the anti-democratic values of the New Oligarchy and its Authoritarian tendencies:

It is thus apt that we begin this special newsletter with Weiss’ 2018 New York Times opus “Renegades of the Dark Intellectual Web.” Reading the article today, after all we have undergone in the past five years, it seems like a true blueprint for where the institutional Jewish world is at the present moment. They have embraced the New Darkness with great enthusiasm, if with careful circumspection.
Our other Lysol friend Yoram Hazony, far less circumspect in the Trump sense, embraced Peterson’s racism in an article that appeared the very same week as Weiss’ epic “Darkness” article. New Fascist minds indeed think alike.
We then move to the deplorable Trumpscum Joe Rogan, the highest paid filth in a vast sea of Internet monetized filth. It is hard to think how the New Media could sink lower than Howard Stern and Opie and Anthony, but it has – with Stern shockingly becoming a voice of reason against Trumpworld!
Articles by Tom Lutz and Leaf Arbuthnot paint a broad picture of the Rogan phenomenon, which then allows us to move back to – who else! – Weiss herself, who has found a comfortable Alt-Right home with both Peterson and Rogan, as she has with Bill Maher; extolling the New Fascism in a way that marks the transgressive antinomian Hipsterism of the anarchic Trumpworld. In my introduction to the Weiss article, I link Rogan to The Tikvah Fund and its Intersectional institutional netWOKEing.
We then move back to Peterson with an excellent takedown by The Nation’s Katha Pollitt, and a vigorous Catholic radical defense of the New Fascism by The Witherspoon Institute’s Darren Geist. The two articles present the matter in stark counterpoint, expressing what is at stake in the current Culture Wars in very scary terms.
Then we finally get the voice of Peterson himself, who in a recent National Post article re-posted by Hazony’s NatCon Talk, does the usual whiny martyrdom White Snowflake routine on how he is being cancelled by the New Racial Consciousness. All he really wants is to be left alone with his copy of The Bell Curve and his fond memories of the Antebellum South and the Confederacy, where the Blacks knew their place and did not talk back!
We close with two excellent articles by Adebayo Adeniran that express the anger and outrage over the New Fascism and its deep racist tendencies by showing how the Trumpist WOKE Intersectionality works in real time, and how it has been enabled by an Internet sewer culture that we have seen being championed by both Weiss and Hazony in a Jewish context.
In the end, what we are seeing is not only the normalization of Trumpism as a socio-political philosophy in traditional Neo-Con circles, but the attempt to usurp democratic norms of Civil Liberties and Free Speech that have been fought for against the reactionaries over the course of many centuries.
In the person of Jordan Peterson, we are being subjected, as is the case with The Tikvah Fund, to a new form of atavism which is intent on reconstructing the old racist hierarchies where White Christians stand on the top of the pyramid, with the less fortunate “Coloreds” – Sephardim included – dropped right down to the bottom of the racial barrel.
This pseudo-intellectual process is being duplicated in the Internet sewer and retweeted by the Right Wing hordes; all of whom have found common cause whatever their specific nomenclature on Trump and Trumpism.
As I have shown, the new book burning culture is being trumpeted by The Tikvah Fund and its many Neo-Con Jewish allies, even when it affects the Holocaust:

This movement is being led by truly horrible individuals like Jordan Peterson and his ally Joe Rogan; men whose aim is to pollute our civil society by reinstituting older protocols of racism and the hatred and violence which is its natural outgrowth. And with them we can always find The Tikvah Fund and its big machers like Bari Weiss standing right with them to support a New Fascist revival.
