I am procrastinating, so in solidarity with @awg_allan and @TabathaSouthey (among many others), I will be tweeting briefly about this Jordan Peterson nonsense.
To start, I will paraphrase something @AndrayDomise said to me last night: “This is not about free speech.” Takes like this and TVO’s are so infuriating – they’re coming from a place of ignorance. Peterson is not defending free speech. He’s inventing censorship and ignoring the 200+ years of work that has gone into developing modern censorship.
