You can't quantify it you fuck that's the point.
It's pointless rhetoric.
>the real world doesn't fit into things like statistical analysis
Jesus christ did you never get past third grade?
I'm an analyst for a living, I do statistical analysis on SIGACTS to identify COAs. If you're going to posit something as sweeping as an inherent privilege you can't just piss into the wind and expect people to listen to you.
BUT MY FEELINGS isn't a valid argument.

I think you will find that /lit/ mostly will side with jp simply because he got famous for debating sjw's which apparently the most intellectually noble thing to do for some reason. Both Peterson and Harris are stubborn and not willing to concede despite it leading to unresolved discussion. I don't really blame them either. Why concede? Its not about providing quality bantz for shitposters. Its about butting heads and that's exactly what they did. It (non ironically) really makes you think.

This is aimed at bi- or multilingual /lit/izens.

My uni is offering 10-week beginner intensive courses on the following languages:

>Italian
>Japanese
>Portugeuse
>Russian

My question is: which of these is the easiest/hardest to learn? In terms of preference I'm leaning towards Russian but mostly I just want to get off my arse and learn a language - ideally it would have been French (which I have a very basic GCSE-level understanding of) but unfortuntately it isn't on offer.
