How can we expect anyone to critically examine the media they consume if we fail to do the same when it suits us? Peterson is a flaming pile of pseudo-intellectual garbage, but there's plenty of ways to prove that without intentionally taking sound bites out of context.

That and body shaming people you don't like really aggravate me. Shit humans do shit things, attack that and leave the rest alone.

The double-standards on body shaming drive me up the wall on this website. The number of "ugly, fat, small penis" comments I see from the same people who say you can't call a medically obese person "obese" is insane to me.

The number of “ugly, fat, small penis” comments I see from the same people who say you can’t call a medically obese person “obese” is insane to me.

Cite one of your many examples of being unable to call a medically obese person "obese" because of objections from people engaging in body shaming.
