“It’s one thing to tolerate opposing viewpoints, demanding an endorsement of one viewpoint and the exclusion of all other viewpoints is quite another.”

The more woke a person becomes the less effective mirrors prove to be.

Because Justice! And Racism! And Fascist! But mostly h8 and the love of Power!

Also, the VA teacher’s school has been ordered to un-suspend him.

Commenter CommoChief:
Two dozen more decisions like this and plenty of awarded damages may have a deterrent effect. Though I won’t hold my breath.
It amazes me that the folks who demand that they be allowed to ‘be themselves’ refuse to acknowledge that someone else can hold and express contrary viewpoints while ‘being themselves’.
It’s one thing to tolerate opposing viewpoints, demanding an endorsement of one viewpoint and the exclusion of all other viewpoints is quite another.

However Sullivan became demented with his gay marriage and torture obsession and delved into conspiracy theories regarding Sarah Palin’s uterus as well as embracing anti-Semitism. Charles Johnson went completely left wing in 2009.

Med School has gone PC. They promote SWJs because Obama wanted it, and one of his henchmen took over the College Board and they redesigned the MCATs seeking out future Social Justice Warriors to be for promotion to MDs.

Never trust Med School grads from 2019 — then and since is the corrupted class of fake docs. Never again give this category of MDs business
to these corrupyoCrats!

I guess we need to replace the Old Most Important Question with the Shiny New Most Important Question:

But is it Good for IKEA?

(And for all intents and purposes a great person…who has—YES!—overcome a lot
AND himself inspired millions around the globe to PICK UP THEIR SOCKS and/or buy a laundry hamper, etc., which is nothing to be sneezed at…. though just thinking about all that lint does make one a bit sneezy…)

The point being (in spite of all that nonsense about “accepting” blatantly, brazenly, stolen elections): LOSE NOT HOPE, YE WHO FOLD YER UNDERWEAR, HEAR HEAR!…

Of course he won’t name them. The Peterson Shtick is to sidle up to the brink and then get all mystical-metaphysical and eye-rolling and beat a dignified retreat. He does this with both ends of the Overton Window.

Which tells you what he really is: A Herdsman.

And what does a Herdsman Herd?

Sure is very remunerative to park yourself Bottom Centre of a Widening Gyre, but in the long run, just going to end up covered in Bird Shit.

Makes a nice change from his telling us about his youthful sexual fantasies about his cousin and hysterical psychoses about Nuclear Armageddon. Head Case.

But while I’m here… Om: Go Tidy Your Room!

My mom read it it and pronounced as nonsense” – Lee Also

When our youngest was a senior, he confessed to not quite understanding one of his English assignments. I’m probably not as smart as your mom, but I managed a couple of university degrees, and the Kid is no slouch.
I read the paper explaining the assignment and told him he couldn’t understand it because his English teacher was illiterate and what she had written made no sense.

We cobbled together something that we thought might address what she thought she was assigning.
So glad my kids got out of K-12 before education went totally down the drain.
University was sinking while they were there, but they were all STEM except the art major, and he got burned badly.

Watching the grand-kids schooling; if CRT comes in the door, we are going out the window.
