Dr. Jordan Peterson visits Harvard University, where he used to teach, for a civil discussion about neo-marxism and postmodernism, among other topics.
6 minutes of Jordan Peterson addressing the Harvard students directly: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cGkQil14LPQ

I'm amazed Harvard let him speak. I pray God will right our foundering ship of state, culture, and society.
I look for relief from this relentless march of self-destruction here and around the world through a brief resurgence of faith and sensibleness by the grace of God through Jesus Christ. However, at some point later, the 21st Century will become so bloody and deadly, it will make the bloody 20th Century look like a picnic.

Not all liberals are Marxist SJW's.
There's hope.
“Amazed that Harvard let him speak” Are you kidding? Neo Marxist post Modernism is the nonsense that dominates the humanities at Harvard and most universities. Real intellectual inquiry and scholarship no longer exists in these politically correct, well funded toxic bubbles.
I fear you are correct.
Look at their ages. Postmodern indoctrination is everywhere. Importantly places like Harvard are not the problem. Postmodernism in schools of education are where it hurts society.
That was great. SJWs are pathetic.
For anyone who never heard of it, look up Intersectionality. Truly nutty.
He put it very well - SJW “studies” are void of intellectual credibility.
As he put it so very well - intersectionality “studies” are void of any true scientific inquiry or intellectual credibility.
Spectacular. Do you know when this happened?
Whatever date is showing. I think it was a few days ago.
Such censorship is a crude attempt to shut down political/religious opinions and intelligent discussion, substituting coercive pressure by those who wish no such reasoned debate.
Generations who have been "imprisoned" in schools which failed to teach them of their individual value and purpose under the ideas expressed in their nation's Declaration of Independence and protected under their written Constitution should now be informed that the First Amendment protects their freedom of speech, of expression, and that no "progressive regressive" has a right to censor away that right.
"The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. But it does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are twenty gods, or no God. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg." - Thomas JeffersonIn her May 26 Commencement Speech, Hillary spoke of what she declared were attacks on "truth and reason." In the current climate, where "progressive" regressives deny students the right to hear, much less to examine and debate, competing ideas, one wonders why she has any real concern about such perceived "attacks."
As you rightfully said, the Constitution codifies the truths of the Declaration of Independence. Our country needs a political and spiritual enema.
BTW, what <...> do you use to indent a passage?
yeah I was impressed by the guy too. he sounded like a real academic.
Copied and pasted the 6 minute youtube link into the browser.
WOW! HOORAY Jordan Peterson. Thanks for posting, Jim 0216
