    She's sort of that era's version of Jordan Peterson. Had that little fanatical cult following that couldn't figure out she wasn't actually saying anything of interest.

    She sure seems to ring your bell.

    That doesn't sound bitter at all. Your this era's what exactly?

    She’s intelligent, well spoken and very reasonable. Some dudes are intimidated by that.

    As you seem to be very devoted, please describe for us what you regard as especially insightful pearls of wisdom from Paglia or Peterson.

    My point is that there aren't any. There are lots of fanboys declaring how brilliant they are, but even when pressed, they can't point to anything brilliant they've said.

    An intellectual pathway that isn't inspired by resentment and phantom oppressions is just refreshing.
