If students had called Jordan Peterson 'Jordana' & referred to him as 'her' rather than demanding firing it would have tested his principles

No. His principles stand for not trying to impose your "feelings" on someone else, especially when they depart from objective reality.

You think his argument wasn't for free speech but 'I get to call you what I want but you don't coz I'm right'?

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.

No, he believes that we were all created by God in his image. A beautiful, poetic thought that thousands of brilliant people have shared.

Brilliant thinkers in history knew that facts lead so far toward physical truth. Where that ends, they leave markers for metaphysical truth.

But not for gender identity. If there are limited facts supporting that, its a delusion and its a kindness to tell ppl coz history?
