One can’t say 2023-2024 hasn’t been interesting. I’ve seen things i never thought I’d see in my life in the last few years (closer to about 6).

Like Canada, once an extremely liberal country (in the classical liberal sense…not socialist) arresting a reporter a few weeks ago for daring to ask a politician a question in public.

Now the brilliant Peterson is being ordered to go to a reeducation concentration camp (well not fully a concentration camp…yet) for saying things like putting fat, old and trans women on sports illustrated covers is ugly. No really that’s one of the charges against him.

He doesn’t need a license; he’s set.

But having that license, and now being called upon to fight for that license just gives him a marvelous platform to blow up their little world. They are truly hoist on their own petard.

Yep... He needs to go into “prisoner of war” mind set. Resist all the way through the efforts of torture.

Because that is what it really is... They are making him a prisoner of the current psychological war.

“ reeducation concentration camp (well not fully a concentration camp…yet)”

Don’t be fooled, A concentration camp inside an office building with well appointed furniture and a nice breakfast spread is STILL a concentration camp.

Agreed. But by destroying what little is left of his career they're sending a message to younger Canadian psychologists that they have to toe the line.

[...] undergo remedial social media training

He should pretend to undergo the "re-conditioning," then come out and hold a press conference in which he pledges his undying devotion to "Big Brother."

'Do you remember,' he went on, 'writing in your diary, "Freedom is the freedom to say that a man who has had his genitals surgically removed and who wears ladies' clothing is still a man"?'

'Yes,' said Winston.

O'Brien held up a copy of "Sports Illustrated," its cover towards Winston, featuring an image of German pop singer Kim Petras.

'How many X chromosomes does this person have, Winston?'

“A concentration camp inside an office building with well appointed furniture and a nice breakfast spread is STILL a concentration camp. “

Except like court mandated substance abuse classes there is no “grade”, all you have to do is show up and sign in to prove you were there, and pay your fee for the class. After that you just do whatever you like for that hour including ignoring, ridiculing, or proving the “teacher” wrong. Just like how many high schools are run nowdays.

He is very convincing and persuasive. I imagine that he would end up reeducating the reeducators.

Oh sure, ban “restorative therapy” but force people that the gov disagrees with to undergo “remedial social media training” in order to gaslight him into “correct speach”

“A higher court in Canada has ruled that the Ontario College of Psychologists indeed has the right to sentence me to re-education camp."

Just goes to show the Canadian high court judge doesn't know a right from a power.

I don’t agree with all he preaches and don’t particularly care one wit about him. However, he could sure turn their little re-education stunt upside down on them.
