I am so sad to hear about this. My parents watched their beloved professors being torn away from their classrooms during the Cultural Revolution in China in the 1960s. They were forced to condemn them. They were still devastated by that experience even today. I can't believe that barely 50 years later, a new generation of youth have to experience the same thing, this time in the west. RIP, Science and Democracy.

My son is one of these males. He did everything that was "expected" of him. Won an award in research, flourished and yet is rejected based on his sex and race. I have lost respect for universities! Thank you for telling the truth.

I was using advanced tech and augmented reality at a university in California for dementia as just a hire under a professor. I advanced quickly. They told me I was more than eligible for a scholarship and a pathway to academia. When I interviewed for the scholarship everything went well. I was told by the head of this pretty new research facility that I was too white to get the scholarship. It was my only chance at affording higher education. Despite coming from humble beginnings, I was judged solely for my skin tone. It hurt to know that. I wanted to help people through tech and psychology.

One quote of yours changed my life. "If you can't say no to the little things you know to be wrong, you'll never say no to the big things". I have become good at saying no to anything that goes against my conscience, ethics or morals. It has cost me friendships and my job, but I am empowered and healthy. Thank you.

As someone who was born a Chernobyl baby in the USSR, hearing my parents say that they fled the brutal ideology of the Soviet Union, to land in a worse ideology of the Modern Day in the West in Communist Canada is disheartening. Bravo Jordan for sounding the alarms. Hopefully it’s not too late to turn this around…😞

Thank you, Dr. Jordan Peterson for speaking out against this dystopian, nihilistic movement and its minions.

I'm an elementary public school teacher in the US. Kids are passing their grade level even though they fail our classes. There's no accountability. No expectations nor reasons for kids to succeed. No pressure for parents to make sure kids are doing what they need to succeed. It's always about what more teachers can do (not parents or students) while admin stacks our classes to the brim and give us zero power and authority to lead. Then, ironically, everyone wonders why student test scores are so low.

Jordan peterson is the reason I'm still alive. I'm a marine corps veteran, a father, and a traveling worker. This man has shed light where society doesn't want light shined. Please continue to talk about men and our struggles!

I am from Romania. My history teacher told us how you would have to write at the beginning of each paper "as taught by comrade Ceausescu" or you would not get a passing grade. Its shocking how similar the tactics are yet everyone either doesn't see or pretends not to see this. Very good breakdown from Jordan Peterson, one of the best

[campervanman]

Jordan is becoming stronger, they tried to strike him down, but he came back more powerful than they could possibly imagine.

Keep speaking, Jordan. Someone has to.

If no one else will do it, you have to. You have my full support on this...

My niece was 8 years old and was having problems with her spelling words. We met with the teacher and she suggested that she would grade my niece on a diffetent scale than the other kids because English is her second language. She only had to learn 15 words rather than 20 which was what the other kids were learning. As soon as my niece heard that she sat up and took notice. She rejected the suggestion immediately and told her teacher that she didn't need special treatment . That was the last time any teacher ever called home about her grades. She is almost 20 now. She has her real eastate license and is studying to be a doctor.

I am a Sessional Lecturer in the field of English in Canada, and I can confirm what Dr. Peterson is saying about universities.

[NissanAltima]

I genuinely hope there are some professors and CEOs that take this to heart

[ndchancecellular]

Never give up Dr Peterson. You and your words are absolutely vital to pushing back against woke, inclusive nutbags.

I'm a computer engineer and typically work contract jobs for huge corporations. I'm brought in to fix what others have screwed up. The engineering world has embraced this D.E.I crap, and in the last few years I have nonstop job offers. The unqualified diversity hires are mucking up the world, and it has real ramifications. I usually have Global Admin credentials on each job and have access to just about everything, and when I'm communicating with an employee of the company I can see their credentials and their history with the company in the employee database. Often people have credentials from good schools but it's clear when working with them that they lack the skill set to do their job. I often tell my employers that I can fix a problem but unless they fire employees A, B and C the problem will reappear a few months after I leave. The D.E.I hires never get fired, which means I will be gainfully employed forever fixing their blunders, and my rates are going up.

[echofoxtrot.]

Yes, please. It's been horrendous at my university. I used to love college, but their political rhetoric has drained the life out of me. It's heartbreaking. I wish you were my professor Dr. Peterson. Thank you.

“The further a society drifts from the truth, the more it will hate those that speak it.” Keep teaching the truth Dr. Peterson, and enjoy the hate.

Thank you. I resigned from the University of Alaska as a tenured professor for the exact same reasons. I was so, so disappointed in my colleagues’ lack of courage, but I understand that they feared losing their livelihoods. I couldn’t do it any longer. It wasn’t fair to my students or to my own integrity.

In an age of universal deceit, speaking the truth is a revolutionary act.
