He’s still a doctor and he’s doing well in life, even if he will not practive.

I’d tell them to go pound sand.

This is why certain people just need to be made dead. Godless Socialists in particular.

Stuff lib socialists hate. Mainly stuff that falls into the “unpleasant truths” category, or things in the “statements that oppose woke ideology” category.

Hes too much of a tradcon too me, still too blue pilled for me, but he’s right on a great many things and can successfully defend his views.

complaints about “social-justice warriors” and “snowflakes”

The tough-love, stern-dad strand of his work is represented in 12 Rules for Life, which fetes strength, discipline and honour.

Peterson was troubled by two developments: a federal amendment to add gender identity and expression to the Canadian Human Rights Act; and his university’s plans for mandatory anti-bias training. Starting from there, he railed against Marxism, human rights organisations, HR departments and “an underground apparatus of radical left political motivations” forcing gender-neutral pronouns on him.

His bete noire is what he calls “postmodern neo-Marxism” or “cultural Marxism”. In a nutshell: having failed to win the economic argument, Marxists decided to infiltrate the education system and undermine western values with “vicious, untenable and anti-human ideas”, such as identity politics, that will pave the road to totalitarianism.

In Professor Against Political Correctness, he says: “I know something about the way authoritarian and totalitarian states develop and I can’t help but think that I am seeing a fair bit of that right now.”

“How does one effectively debate a man who seems obsessed with telling his adoring followers that there is a secret cabal of postmodern neo-Marxists hellbent on destroying western civilisation and that their campus LGBTQ group is part of it?”

Dr Petersen holds all the cards. He doesn’t need anything from Canada and can start a college anytime he wishes.

Without a doubt, Peterson WILL tell them go pound sand

It will be interesting to see how fascist this court, and Canada in general, become over this.

Former Colleagues:

I’d rather be right and say what is right than to be a professional liar.

Canada has been a fascist-lite country since the days of Trudeau Sr.

They are hitting Peterson hard, because he’s a strong man. Knock down the strong men and the weaker ones get in line.

I have nothing but contempt for a court that makes a ruling like this.

OTOH I'd pay to see what he will do at such an education camp.
