Jordan Peterson is a clinical psychologist and professor at the University of Toronto who is critical of postmodernist philosophy and identity politics. He argues that postmodernists have introduced dangerous ideas around diversity, equity, inclusion and victimization into universities. Peterson believes in the sovereignty of the individual and freedom of expression. He warns against restricting speech and views Marxism and postmodernism as threats to Western civilization and individual liberty.

2. Dangerous People Are Teaching Your Kids
https://www.prageru.com/videos/dangerous-people-are-teaching-your-kids
Dangerous people are filling the
heads of young people with
dangerous nonsense. Who are
these people? They are what
Jordan Peterson calls:
“the post-modernists:”
“neo-Marxist professors who
dominate our colleges and
universities. And here’s the worst
part: we are financing these
nihilists with tax dollars, alumni
gifts and tuition payments.
Time to wise up.”
Jordan Peterson
3. They are indoctrinating young minds
throughout the West with their
resentment-ridden ideology. They
have made it their life's mission to
undermine Western civilization itself,
which they regard as corrupt,
oppressive and “patriarchal.”
You're supporting ideologues who
claim that all truth is subjective; that
all sex differences are socially
constructed; and that Western
imperialism is the sole source of all
Third World problems. They are the
post-modernists, pushing
“progressive” activism at a college
near you.

4. To understand and oppose the post-modernists, the ideas by which
they orient themselves must be clearly identified.
First is their new unholy trinity of
diversity, equity and inclusion.
Diversity is defined not by opinion,
but by race, ethnicity or sexual
identity;
equity is no longer the laudable
goal of equality of opportunity, but
the insistence on equality of
outcome; and
inclusion is the use of identity-
based quotas to attain this
misconceived state of equity.
Jordan Peterson

5. Second is rejection of the free
market —of the very idea that free,
voluntary trading benefits everyone.
They won't acknowledge that
capitalism has lifted up hundreds of
millions of people so they can for the
first time in history afford food,
shelter, clothing, transportation—
even entertainment and travel.
Those classified as poor in the US (and,
increasingly, everywhere else) are able to
meet their basic needs. Meanwhile, in once-
prosperous Venezuela—until recently the
poster-child of the campus radicals—the
middle class lines up for toilet paper.
Jordan Peterson
“The post-modernists:” – pushing “progressive” activism
6. Third, and finally, are the politics of identity. Post-
modernists don't believe in individuals. You're an
exemplar of your race, sex, or sexual preference.
You're also either a victim or an oppressor. No
wrong can be done by anyone in the former
group, and no good by the latter. Such ideas of
victimization do nothing but justify the use of
power and engender intergroup conflict.
All these concepts originated with Karl Marx, the
19th-century German philosopher. Marx viewed
the world as a gigantic class struggle —the
bourgeoisie against the proletariat; the grasping
rich against the desperate poor. But wherever his
ideas were put into practice—in the Soviet Union,
China, Vietnam, and Cambodia, to name just a
few—whole economies failed, and tens of millions
were killed. We fought a decades-long cold war to
stop the spread of those murderous notions. But
they're back, in the new guise of identity politics.

9. Jordan Peterson - Postmodernism
The postmodern philosophy “came into vogue” in the 1970s, according to
Peterson, “after classic Marxism, especially of the economic type, had been so
thoroughly discredited that no one but an absolute reprobate could support it
publicly.”
Peterson said it’s not possible to understand our current society without
considering the role postmodernism plays within it, “because postmodernism,
in many ways—especially as it’s played out politically—is the new skin that the
old Marxism now inhabits.”

17. "What should I do with my wife?" Treat
her as if she is the Holy Mother of God, so
that she may give birth to the world-
redeeming hero.
What should I do with my daughter? Stay
by her side, listen to her, watch her, form
her mind and make it clear that nothing
happens if she wants to be a mother.
What should I do with my parents? Act in
such a way that your actions justify the
suffering they went through.
What should I do with my son?
Encourage him to be a true Son of God. "

18. " Christianity achieved the well-nigh
impossible. The Christian doctrine
elevated the individual soul, placing slave
and master and commoner and nobleman
alike on the same metaphysical footing,
rendering them equal before God and the
law... In consequence, the metaphysical
conception of the implicit transcendent
worth of each and every soul established
itself against impossible odds as the
fundamental presupposition of Western
law and society. That was not the case in
the world of the past, and is not the case
yet in most places in the world of the
present. "Jordan Peterson

19. "Strikingly, these differences, strongly
influenced by biological factors, are
most pronounced in the Scandinavian
societies where gender-equality has
been pushed hardest: this is the
opposite of what would be expected by
those who insist, ever more loudly, that
gender is a social construct. It isn’t.
This isn’t a debate. The data are in."
" Biological distinctions between men
and women? Despite the existence of
an overwhelming, multi-disciplinary
scientific literature indicating that sex
differences are powerfully influenced by
biological factors,…”Jordan Peterson

20. Jordan Peterson: Sovereignty of the individual
To say ‘The meek shall inherit the
earth’ is very different from
proclaiming those famous words from
the Communist manifesto: “Workers of
the world, unite! You have nothing to
lose but your chains!” Having ‘nothing
to lose’ means that one is ready to cast
aside human mercy and engage in
violence. It turns out that the workers
have everything to lose. Perhaps Karl
Marx’s ‘dictatorship of the proletariat’
is one of the worst ideas ever
conceived of: effectively advocating
the replacement of one form of tyranny
(the individual exploiting the masses)
with another (the masses exploiting
the individual).
21. Jordan Peterson: Sovereignty of the individual
If you invert the class structure, it’s still
a class structure—the upside-down
pyramid is still a pyramid—except it
has no foundation and will collapse on
itself. Marx and Engel’s dialectical
materialism is mono-logical: it sees
only material conditions and ignores
deep psychology and metaphysics.
Marx thought a people’s dictatorship
would be a temporary stage leading to
a classless society. There is, however,
no psychological realism in this utopian
view: in fact, we have every reason to
believe that Marx’s theories have their
logical climax in mass murder and
tyranny.
22. Jordan Peterson: Sovereignty of the individual
“If you don’t believe in free
speech you don’t believe in
the implicit divinity of
mankind,” …
“You don’t believe in the
sovereignty of the individual.”
“The notion that every single human being – regardless of their peculiarities and their
strangenesses and sins and crimes and all of that – has something divine in them that
needs to be regarded with respect… I think it is the cornerstone of our legal system.
That's the notion that everyone is equal before God. ... But if you look way that the
idea of individual sovereignty developed, it is clear that it unfolded over thousands,
perhaps tens of thousands of years, where it became something that was fixed in the
imagination that each individual had something of transcendent value about them.”

25. Jordan Peterson on freedom of expression
"Freedom of expression is the
mechanism by which we keep our
society functioning. … Freedom of
speech is freedom to engage in the
processes that we use to formulate the
problems in our society, to generate
solutions to them, and reach a
consensus. It's actually a mechanism –
it's not just another value. And you
should put constraints on free speech
with the most extreme caution because
you interfere with people's ability to
think and communicate”
"I’ve studied totalitarianism for
four decades and I know how it
starts: it starts with restrictions
on freedom of speech.”
