LimpyLoo Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 Jordan Petersonoops limpy this is the good canadians thread I just saw this morning that he's all over the news https://www.buzzfeed.com/laurenstrapagiel/a-toronto-professor-says-he-refuses-to-recognzie-gender-neut?utm_term=.tdL2KRwzx#.heO82lkWL Very surreal...this whole thing has been framed as a trans issue, but his actual concern is that there are now potentially-true things that are now illegal to say...

I'm really interested to know...I think I've watched 25-30 of his lectures and although he's said some clearly controversial things, that is not at all a bad thing IMO...students should be able to hear views they disagree with without running to daddy to stop the bad man from talking That being said, I certainly don't agree with him all the time, but I don't have the impulse to punish him legally when he says things I disagree with...that is not what free societies do (if they wanna stay free) I don't wanna get too alarmist, but historically the way free societies become un-free is by making certain politically-controversial truths illegal...look around the world and throughout history from Maoism to Communist Russia to present-day theocracies like Saudi Arabia...if there are true or potentially-true things that are illegal to say, then we have officially lost our way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
