No, I don't think that Professors should hold back due to some fear of becoming unpopular in the eyes of the proletariat. But Jordan Peterson seems to have no problem articulating nuanced, subtle ideas and he isn't afraid that people outside the room will hear him.
Good for him. And he's independently wealthy at this point, and doesn't fear for his job. Most professors are not in that position. Far from it.

Professors shouldn't base the nature or substance of their lectures on whether or not they have tenure. They're there to educate, first and foremost. If there are elements of a lecture that the administration wouldn't approve of, they should address that outside of the classroom.

I've tried for years to do that. Admin is generally not responsive, e.g. they do not support the First Amendment. So we either self-censor, or we take the risk of professing what we really believe.

Peterson wasn't wealthy when he first spoke out. In fact, Peterson has said many times that he thought he would lose his career. He even said that he was willing to die for the cause of speaking out and defending the truth. You keep making disingenuous points.

And what exactly have you risked in your career to support free speech, anonymous account?

He wasn’t wealthy when he first “came out”.
