I hate that youtuber Jesse Peterson with a fiery passion. Probably more than any other right-wing commentator. Just an incredible mix of stupidity, masculinism, and incivility.
When she said she was a virgin, hahahaha.
Take a look at these respectable voters.
As a preface I'll admit this video is the only exposure I've had to Jesse Peterson. Having said that, given the evidence before me I find it odd to call him an example of incivility. He seemed quite civil here but, well, perhaps he was more restrained in this video than he usually is. And I'm not sure what "masculinism" is supposed to mean so I'm not sure whether it should be considered virtue or vice.
Having said that, I can say with absolute certainty this fellow is far from stupid. Quite the the contrary; Peterson is obviously brilliant.
Back when I studied philosophy at university more than a decade ago, I always had the suspicion that Plato had invented the Socrates presented in his dialogues. This isn't to say a historical Socrates didn't exist, but the conversations related by his disciple struck me as just a little bit too convenient. There was no way someone like Euthyphro, who believed himself a mouthpiece of the gods themselves, had such a malformed idea of what the word "god" even meant. If you were willing to listen to the spirits, act according to their dictates, sacrifice to them and all the rest, you should at least have some basic idea of what you're swearing yourself to and who you are, in extremis, willing to both kill and die for.
Having watched Peterson in this video, I'm willing to abandon my youthful skepticism. Decades later than I should be, I'm finally willing to believe the Socrates of Plato could have existed and I have Peterson to thank for that. Or curse for that, maybe. Because if the platonic Socrates existed so too could have the platonic Euthyphro. It's a frightening thing to watch a spiritual successor of the former reveal that there are spiritual children of the latter who have no understanding of what they supposedly claim to believe. They'll protest for an idea, mold themselves to accord with a cause, dress themselves in a costume and are willing to fly a flag as they march in protest without having the slightest notion of where it is they're actually marching to or who it is they're marching against.
Watching Peterson ask these women if they believed in God and whether said God would approve them of being sluts, and listening to their confused, stumbling responses, I felt like I was back at university reading the Socratic dialogues for the very first time.
There was actually a Euthyphro and I had been naive to have ever assumed otherwise. The boogeyman clamoring beneath the bed is real and the women in this video, each and every one of them his daughter, serves as testament to that horrifying fact.
As the tiniest compensation, that someone like Peterson exists allows me to believe Socrates existed as well and that his sons will continue to pursue to truth as long Euthyphro's daughters continue to fall victim to their father's lies.

Socrates may have well been a real person, but all the personages in Plato's works are just various "points of views" presented in the form of person. Plato is basically dealing with a question from every possible angle, until eventually nothing is left except for a metaphysical explanation which he refrains from giving but implies heavily. So Socrates is essentially a rhetorical device. Whether he existed or not neither adds nor takes anything away from the dialogues. The same goes for the other personages.
The funny thing about any of them being real people though is that it is actually more likely that each represents a "school of thought" in vogue at the time, which is much more scary and is reflected fully in the video, since all those women belong to one single political movement.
