“Attempting to shut, and shutdown the man, is mere confirmation of many of his claims, even if you disagree with a good number of them”.

That's the way the Left deals with everyone, not just Peterson. The Left has to do this because they occupy a policy free, morals free, dead zone. If they thought that they had anything to say, the they would argue, not just ban and shut down.

Excuse me? PC exquisite Binoy Kampmark actually wrote an article defending free speech? Careful you don't get chucked out of your next plummy Government job for Conduct Unbecoming an Ideological Zealot, Binoy.

This could be a good sign though. The left is now becoming so unpopular, their behaviour so violent, their demands so bizarre, and their logic so bankrupt, that perhaps even their notables like Binoy know it is time to jump off the sinking ship of leftism?

Foxy, Susieoncrack, Arjay, David F., David G., Craig Minns, and Aiden B., please take note.

We do not need folk with Alt-Right views disseminating them at our universities.

Nor allow funding from the same source to then allow it to decide what controversial contrarian views are acceptable!?

We need as never before, pragmatic speakers whose humanitarian views, reunite a fractured, Individualised, greed is good, society!

As opposed to the Alt-Right which seeks only to divide and foment hatred and rage, or radicalised robots!

Perhaps we could allow (edited) footage of televised debate where speakers for the left and the moderate middle are given a chance at a rebuttal and to very thoroughly debunk those nation and unity harming, inhumane views!?

Why should a faculty of "divinity" which is supposedly in existence to promote a Christian (religious) world view accept Jordan Peterson as a visiting fellow when (as far as I know) even though he promotes Christian based ideas, he does not even claim to be a Christian.

There is nothing particularly Christian religious, and certainly not Spiritual about his 12 Rules For Life. They are really just applied (adult) common sense - equally applicable to anyone, including atheists.

Re Ralston College, if you check out the people associated with it most/all of them are very much on the right side of the culture wars divide - as indeed is the highly over rated Roger Scruton.

maybe the left are scared that people lying about their idenities like Pocahontas are doing them damage. Think of the number of real Indians that might of got the jobs she has taken. Mind you why anyone who would claim to be Indian while claiming that Indian Americans are greatly discriminated against defies logic. Sorry I forget marxism was never about logic.

Thanks for that runner and backing up, if unintentionally, my previous comment?

One would have thought that most of the Alt-Right would be pulling their heads in after the Christchurch massacre of worshippers at prayer!?

Except those so divorced from normal human empathy, so as not to care what effect their racist rant has on the impressionable malleable minds of the immature and intellectually challenged!

You do seem to have a bee in your bonnet about a Native American sitting in the Senate.

As I understand it, the decimated Indian tribes accept a 25% Indian of mixed race as their kith and kin! So why can't you?

Or does being a bigoted racist sit so well with you? You are now so addicted to that particular mindset? You are unable to re-evaluate and become less hostile and more fair-minded as every other fair dinkum Aussie?

WORDS MATTER!
