my main problem with Jordan Peterson is that he's a ridiculous whiny baby about pronouns

Does he actually object to using chosen male/female pronouns of trans people, or does he just object to made up xim/xer style of pronouns? I've heard conflicting accounts, and I don't care to actually watch his stuff to find out myself.

when asked about it he's said that he has always used whichever pronoun a real person standing in front of him asks him to use (which has always been either he or she). what he has strenuously objected to is the compelled speech clause of a particular piece of legislation.

in the sense that he's arguing from ideology, sure, a bit. I think his original concern was much more about what kind of laws ought to be permissible rather than anything to do with trans persons though.
