The Spin

Jordan Peterson has consistently hid behind his credentials as a psychologist in order to spew untrue and disparaging rhetoric about groups that include trans people and his ideological opponents. His fame cannot shield him from the standards of professionalism people in his occupation are meant to uphold, and the College did the right thing in attempting to rein in his inflammatory comments.

The Supreme Court has ruled that an ideologically captured regulatory body has veto power over the speech rights of its members, even if they have nothing to do with the occupation whatsoever. What's more, Peterson is now mandated to undergo what can only be described as a reeducation process to correct wrongthink. This is an Orwellian encroachment on freedom that everyone should be opposed to.
