I'm referring to a general attitude. This thread went on. :)

Government should not compel speech. Thinking people can find rude and untruthful speech unpleasant or wrong. Absolutely no contradiction.
-
Agreed. Did I suggest there was? They just have to deal with it tho. Whether its Peterson's speech thought unpleasant & wrong or students;
-
He doesn't have to call people by the gender they want but people don't have to call him by the gender he wants either.
-
And the issue isn't who is factually right here. Ppl have the right to be wrong. The issue is the freedom to express views.
-
As far as I know, Peterson believes himself to be an immortal made in the image of a God. To me that is clearly crazy & factually wrong.
-
But he still has the right to thinks its true of him & me and say it of himself & me. And I have the right not to accept his self-definition

He also thinks he is a man, this is objectively true and that he should be referred to as such. He is willing to debate this w/o shaming.
-
If he is actually prepared to force other students to use his pronouns coz he's right whilst refusing to use theirs coz they're wrong 1/2
-
Then he's no champion of free speech. Everyone argues for things they think right being said. I don't think he is though. 2/2
-
If you are saying you don't think he merits protesting, I agree with you. I'm just suggesting what would have been an appropriate protest.
