[@haruspex1-50]

I think these two are so naive. I say this as someone who’s well versed in Islam. Part of my family is Muslim. My wife herself was raised within a Muslim household. As the saying goes evil exists when good men do nothing. For far too long due to political correctness and fear of offending a religious community institutions were complicit. You don’t have to like Tommy but at least he had the balls where others didn’t to sound the alarm. What I’d like to see is less finger pointing about Tommy, Rogan and Peterson and more honest discussion about how to tackle elements of the ideology which are problematic so that the next generation don’t experience the ordeal of girls gone by. That requires tough unpleasant and unpopular topics being discussed and hard grown up conversations. A lot of these issues are cultural but have credibility in schools of jurisprudence, tafsirs and authentic hadiths. These things need addressing. I growing up had to wrestle with them. My wife had to wrestle with them. At this moment in time Jack is too eager to please the establishment here. People downplay the religious element of these attacks at their peril.

I agree with many of the things that you're saying, especially regarding Tommy Robinson, Jordan Peterson and Elon Musk, however, I think when we're talking about the mainly Pakistani-British nonce gangs, it doesn't serve the victims to skirt around the subject by repeatedly mentioning various other types of paedophilia. Paedophilia, in general, isn't the subject at hand, the subject is this particular type of crime that seems to have a cultural and religious component; experts on the subject such as Trevor Phillips, Ann Cryer, Sara Rowbotham, Simon Danczuk, Sammy Woodhouse, Maggie Oliver, Nazir Afzal and Andrew Norfolk will all tell you the same thing. Ignoring the elephant in the room is how we've ended up in this mess in the first place and we shouldn't be afraid of acknowledging hard truths when children's lives are at stake. No one's saying we shouldn't prosecute all the different types of paedophilia, or that it has to be one or the other. They're noticing a pattern that's occurring across the country, that appears to disproportionally involve a specific community, and want to get to the bottom of it. I agree that we should implement the recommendations from the Jay report while simultaneously commissioning a national inquiry into grooming gangs. The more data we can collect, the better.

[@pwimbledon]

No, the only way to face criminal charges for any kind of speech in the United States is if it involves an immediate threat of danger or violence. That standard is high when it comes to threats to an individual and it’s much higher when the threat is towards the government. What Tommy Robinson said might get him a civil suit from an individual for defamation, but from what I could tell, there is absolutely no way he would receive a fine or face jail. The idea that someone would face jail time for something said online that isnt a reasonable and credible threat of immediate violence is bizarre and Orwellian to me.

[@arfurascii2232]

You may be right that Mr Robinson would not be in prison in the USA for his behaviour, although there are 50 states along with the District of Columbia, and about 20 states have criminal defamation laws (punishable by prison albeit rarely in practice, and for which criminal contempt sanctions may be allowed). Damages are also a thing there. Either way, Mr Robinson's wrongdoing was in the jurisdiction of England and Wales. On ten occasions (to which he admitted) he chose to breach a court order that he stop making a specific set of defamatory statements about a boy who had sued him for defamation and won. Aggravating factors in considering the period of his committal (time in prison) included the fact that contempt proceedings were begun after the first four occasions but he nevertheless went on to do it another six times; and that during these contempt proceedings he failed to attend a hearing he was ordered to attend (another contempt in itself). He did all that instead of adopting the law-abiding approaches of appealing against the defamation judgment or applying to vary the court order. Incidentally, instead of paying damages he has declared bankruptcy; he told the court he was in lots of debt and that he had gambled away £100k while receiving donations from supporters. If someone won't be punished after a trial concludes there was defamation then there is no point in defamation law and you might say that's all to the good but, to me, it's not obviously true that an adult who can't support their claims to the civil standard should be free to make a sustained campaign of defamatory statements about a child, causing misery, harassment and other consequences. If Mr Robinson had no previous convictions including one for illegally entering the USA, perhaps he would be able to live in a more defamation-friendly US state,

There is a convenient confusion (for the far right) between what should be allowed to be said, and what is right or wrong to say. Stating that someone has said something wrong does not detract from their freedom to say it. Words can have many different uses and individually are hard to demarcate as in themselves wrong or right, or warranting being outlawed. Context is key. Context plays a role not only in the meaning, but strength of influence. This reaches into network theory and what can be consitituted as hubs on a network, like a convetional newspaper, but equally a influencer with 100k followers. A reasonable level of fact checking should be expected on those who partake in influential roles in our social network that should be in the realm of the law. Outside of this there are plenty of things that shouldn't be, but should be allowed, to be said. As a listener we should be equally compelled to call this out. This promotes the practice of reason among the populus as well as the sense of freedom of speech.

It's ridiculous when any of the Abrahamic religions try to point fingers at the other. The truth is these religions were made by men who didn't consider women equal to them. These are people who would stone a woman for remarrying, but not the man she remarried. I don't know if Muslims have a form of this hypocrisy or not, but I've grown up in a country that considers itself Chrisitian and not a single believer rejects the idea that Lot married his daughters after his god turned his wife into a pillar of salt. There are scores of stories in which the god of the bible commits genocide, including killing prenatal babies.

[@upendasana7857]

This hardly an eye opening conversation ...sorry but it just all seems so obvious what they're doing to get political mileage out of this and don't care a jot for any victims..Jordan Peterson,Musk and their ilke would have been those who looked at those girls with disdain and not found them "credible",would have victim blamed them and facilitated their abuse by their sheer prejudice and misogyny. Why don't you speak to the woman who worked at the sexual health clinic who spent 10 years trying to get police/social services to take action !!! 10 years of telling them what was going on,about pregnancies and abortions the girls had,young girls coming with bruises etc and asking for the pill !!!! They knew,they all knew but close to believe these girls were making "lifestyle choices",young girls of 13,14,15 hanging out with 20,30..40 year old men. The misogyny at the heart of how the police acted or failed to act is as much as part of this as anything to do with their fears of accusations of racism.They chose to not believe young girls !!!! they chose to believe they were just "slags",bad girls choosing to drink and take drugs and hang out with older men!!! It stinks of misogyny !!

[@gdrdm]

With all due respect to the guest -- whom I had never heard of before -- the allegation that Jordan Peterson 'became' problematic upon joining The Daily Wire, whereas before his supposedly 'neutral' self-worth and purpose message could be, as far as the public knew, misconstrued or misdirected, is fantastical bollocks. If anything -- and I am not trying to be a stubborn contrarian -- he has toned down his messaging for The Daily Wire. Either the guest is insufficiently familiar with Peterson's pre-DW repertoire (best case scenario), or he is disingenuous (worst case), or he is not very perceptive while pompously dismissive of the large number of people who had been pointing out what Peterson was up to since before the first Trump presidency. Recognize that you were wrong, it's OK, just don't turn your bruised ego into even more 'cautious framing'. It's been 10 years since Peterson emerged as an online and media phenomenon, there is no more need for intelectual nuance, one doesn't need to see through him, everything is on the surface, same as before, no need to know his inner thoughts or intentions.

[@martinb60]

Disagree, I took have noticed a shift in his focus and style since moving to Daily Wire. It may not be specifically linked to DW, but the range of topics and nature of his tweets have stretched beyond his initial areas of expertise.

@@martinb60 Has he said anything like women in Muslim countries crave male dominance? Or that women would be better protected against rape if they were legally recognized as men's property? Or that black people regrettably have lower intelligence vs. whites?

[@gdrdm]

​@@martinb60 I replied earlier but it didn't go through for some reason. I didn't say his rhetoric didn't change, I said he toned it down after he joined DW. Whereas now he's practically "vanilla new-right" within our current unfortunate paradigm, not much different from other mainstream (unfortunately normalized) new-right pundits, influencers, media groups, etc. before joining DW he would say things like -- I'm paraphrasing, but you can find it all online -- "Muslim women crave male dominance", "if women were legally men's property that would protect them better against **pe", "black people regrettaly have lower intelligence than white people, it's tragic, but true", and more. Has he said anything as insane and bluntly terrible as this since joining DW, independently of the proportional 'threat' of having a bigger media machine behind his words?

The opposite should happen - he should be invited on platforms where he is shown all his quotes that display bigotry and hatred when he tries to counter argue that he is not a bigot.
