In the fall of 2021, Dr. Ponesse saw her academic career of 20 years fall apart after she refused to comply with a Canadian university’s COVID vaccine mandate. In response, Dr. Ponesse recorded a special video directed to her first-year ethics students. That video went viral.
Since the release of that video, Dr. Ponesse has joined The Democracy Fund as the Pandemic Ethics Scholar focusing on educating the public on civil liberties. Yesterday she joined Jordan Peterson for a discussion of the current situation in Canada, the Freedom Protests and what might lay ahead. WATCH:

We are extremely fortunate here in Canada that these two have put so much on the line.
Dr Ponesse is something very,very special.
We here are on the right side of history.
I am on their team, and ever so grateful for that privilege.
Cheers!
Does your sense of things there, do you think “average” Canadians stand?
“Where” do think average Canadians stand?
Well, the average Canadian stands on their own, God Given two feet and supports the Truckers.
Frightened old Boomers who still watch CBC and think it’s what it was sixty years ago and not a CCP organ, are anti-trucker.
Gen-x Canadians are overwhelmingly pro-trucker.
Millennials are a toss up.
As a old retired Boomer I have turned off the CBC CTV FAKE NEWS etc….

Have a great day
Another old retired Canadian here. Pre-boomer actually. Never frightened. I watch — and don’t watch — just like you. IMHo we are old enough to remember what it felt like to live in freedom. That makes us grandfathered-in redpilled.
“…we are old enough to remember what it felt like to live in freedom.”
Those are glorious memories, memories I hope future generations will one day glory in.
So have I.
As an American Boomer, I can’t help thinking that Dr Peterson and Dr Ponesse excel at explaining human nature in a way that is accessible to people of my generation. We grew up observing the quiet strength of character of our parents, but haven’t seen much of it in our recent political leaders or journalists. The frightened old Boomers may still watch CBC, but it will be difficult for them not to eventually look South and be startled to see how quickly some of our great cities can deteriorate. When that happens, the old Boomers may realize that the truckers are heroic in an old fashioned way.
I live in the USA but my neighborhood is full of Canadians with second homes who winter here. From what I have seen, the Canadians from the coasts or areas above blue American states- British Columbia, Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia tend to be liberal, love Trudeau and be anti-trucker, while the Canadians from Alberta and Saskatchewan are down to earth with common sense and are pro-trucker. Funny how it parallels the US.
The Boomers I know in the US aren’t vaccinated, aren’t frightened, and don’t listen to the American equivalent of the CCP- PBS/NPR or CNN , MSNBC or the networks. Odd, that the Boomers would be different in Canada but entirely possible because in my youth, Canada was where all the extremely leftwing and draft dodgers went to to avoid the Vietnam draft. Sounds like they haven’t changed.
Your geography is spot on.
However, if you get away from the communities that are within a 100 miles of the border, its pretty conservative, even in Ontario and Quebec.
Boomer here, 1956 born. There are lots of us who vomit at the though of listening or watching the Canadian media Cartel
I am not a Canadian, but worked for a Canadian owned business for over a decade. Eastern Canada is pro-European n their ideals and political thought. The midwest is much more conservative but the European influence still pervades there.
The problem w/ Canada is the same problem with the U. S. The big cities control the vote and the rest of the country. Montreal, Toronto, Vancouver, Ottawa….get the picture?
Because the needs of people who live like rats in dense populations are different than the needs of those who are more spread out, government is more appealing to them.
The Framers believed that local government would save us but they didn’t expect the extent of corruption, I suspect, that we have.
The gerrymandering okayed by Obama-appointed justices, was a plan of Eric Holder which they are now working to “perfection.”
I have said it all along: this will not be solved with “law.” It’s lawfare that has killed our representation.
Exactly – the Supreme Court is the “supreme example.”
What the framers couldn’t have expected was the 16th and 17th amendments to the Constitution. The nation would look very different without those two amendments.
Alberta is TexasNorth.
I am an average retired Canadian and I stand with the Truckers and Farmers 100%
As do most of my 7am coffee buddies do.
END ALL THE MINDLESS mRNA EXPERIMENTAL GENE ALTERING THERAPY SERUM.

Masks everywhere I go. The average Canadian is a fearful sheep.
Not true…
But thank you!
They only mask in cities. Out in the country masks are simply ignored. I sell poultry and plants and many people come every summer. No one comes in masks except the odd clueless city dweller. Even electric crews who come to do repairs after storms are maskless, both while working and when riding with three or four in their crew trucks.
They have had enough.
IMO a sleeping giant has been awakened.
Check out the happy protesters all over the country.
Cheers!
WE outside Canada, are also very fortunate, that these two have put so much on the line!
There are people who aspire, with every fiber of their being to be historical figures.
And then there are those who have no such aspirations, and then History, in its infinite wisdom, reaches out and plucks them from what would otherwise be a perhaps admirable but historically inconsequential life, and THRUSTS them into the history books.
We have too many of the former, but these are certainly two of the latter.
On his advice to the Truckers, to retain a playful attitude?
Yeah, they GOT this.
Yeah, well he forgot to tell the elites what to do as though it was only the truckers who needed advise.
The whole situation in their parliament AND in our congress is like a room full of children being selfish and unruly.
The truckers and treepers, in this instance, are the adults in the room.
the elites would not listen, no sense wasting breath.
And President Trump was, it appears, the single adult in the government during his term in office.
Nunes.
Grennell also.
“… and THRUSTS them into the history books.”
Truckers and their fellow patriots, all will be thrust into history books.
Unfortunately all revolutions require violence. It’s the only way the Left will relinquish power.
Historically….Yes.
But historically the left has have a monopoly on the weaponization which allowed them to resist opposition violently. Here in America the populace is well-armed and the military is not on the side of the marxists. Therefore we hope and pray violence will be unnecessary for severely limited
Are you sure about the military on the right side? They sat by and allowed a coup the last election and support this current regime.
The GOP was complicit in the Coup d’eat in 2020.
Coup d’eat committed using a Flu d’eat from China.
US mil is not at all monolithic. They have been under heavy ideogical pressure since Klintoon, when mooseslimes had to be welcomed and accommodated. Next it was sexual and gender mis-ideologies. All of that made service less effective and less attractive to patriots. Yet patriots and folks with fundamentally decent values who just want benefits of service for their and their families’ futures still make up some proportion. A domestic conflict involving our military is likely to be at least as ugly as the 1860s Civil War. Remember, Gen Lee was tops in his class at West Point. Grant was near the bottom, iirc. But until about 1860, they would have been fellow countrymen and alumni, not mortal adversaries.
Here in America the populace is well-armed and the military is not on the side of the marxists.
Ummm….not so sure about that. The rank and file–Non-Comms and lower ranking officers (under Lt. Colonel and down)–might be reluctant to take on We the People, but the senior ranks in DC (including many who are retired) have demonstrated unmistakable zeal for reprimanding the uppity peasants.
The goal is not revolution, but restoration. Look at India. Look at the civil-rights movement of MLK
Well said. And the collapse of the USSR was nearly bloodless. We may be there.
Not necessarily. Think the downfall of the Marcos in the Philippines, Solidarity against the Communists in Poland or the Soviet Union. Prayer and peaceful protest can do a LOT.
Pope John Paul II is a very worthy strategist to emulate in these times. In fact, we should probably all pray that his spirit take over today’s Poop and the church.
RoyBaty, what kind of violence do you suggest? All of us here could strike our keyboard keys with “More Vigor”, but I don’t see how that would assist matters.
Larry, Rolling Stone just offered an interesting article about the life and times of a retired FBI informant. You might find his “story” educational (if you don’t already know the guy…)
https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-features/fbi-infiltrator-nazis-kkk-biker-gangs-1280830/
If you are looking for patsies, easily led characters, perhaps the Treehouse is not the best pond to fish in?
If that is confusing to anyone, allow me to clarify. If you come here trying to tar the Treehouse with your sticky propaganda, instead you “out” yourself as a probable FIB. Either that, or someone who would be easily entrapped by the FIB. Take it someplace else.
Larry: Why is it you gave long time member here, “TreeClimber”, holy hell below for barely hinting at violence might inadvertently come to be justified and now you give “RoyBaty” royal heck for the opposite?
Maybe YOU are the “Fed”?
Our founding revolutionaries won the war by shooting at the people who were trying to enforce the King’s edicts.
I agree. I don’t like that it’s so but I can see that it is.
On second thought, I would modify that: It’s the THREAT of violence that COULD save states, countries from the larger violence that revolutions require.
You can bet that our side has not engaged in threats to certain people….or else we’d not be in this fix.
The Berlin Wall fell without a shot being fired.
But an entire generation of Cold War and nuclear proliferation, the ultimate in THREATS, is what brought it down.
The Soviet Union ( the word “union” being a joke, of course) was expensive to maintain when they had to keep building their nuclear arsenal.
It was also because the Reagan made the Soviet Union go broke.
Food insecurities were a yuge motivator for RUS to spin off its satellites and open to the west. They were at most a year away from widespread food riots. Reagan kept their mil spending at max, while winning the people’s hearts and stomachs with grain shipments that also benefitted our farmers. Maybe some lessons to learn for now? I think the truckers are on to something.
Dekester. Absolutely.
Another shout out to Bonnie Mallard, Byram Bridle, and Michael Palmer.
I was able to go to a conference where Julie, and these three presented the science. Corporal Daniel also presented.
A team of these like minded academics have assembled and are combatting the official narrative. They are certainly on the right side of history.

Amazing group
Sounds like the patriots gathered in Ottowa are getting great information, along with gathering for great fellowship.
May the Lord continue to bless and guide you and your family, Dan, as you do His work.
Blessed Lord’s day among the patriots.
Go Canada!!
I, as a human sick of tyranny, am incredibly grateful to Canadian Truckers for sticking up for us all! 🇨🇦🇨🇦 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Thank you, Sundance, for relentlessly leading from the front in the battle for our future!
“The pen is mightier than the sword.”
After you inspire and educate with the pen, if people do not pick up the sword, they are still defenseless against those who hate you and your words. No amount of words would stop Joseph Stalin. No words will be enough to free Canada,nor the US. The tyrants are hidden behind the politicians… Besos, Zuckerberg, many others. This is a complex twisted socialism we fight.

This movement is getting larger than anyone thought it would. He’s correcr, the CBC and their Left Wing bias has pissed off conservatives for a very long time. The CBC jumped the shark when they sand bagged and knee capped the great Don Cherry. That was a few years ago. Over a billion in funding every year for left wing PBS type shat.
good video
@19:13 Did he insinuate Jan 6 insurrectionists are real?
.
Yeah… Doc Peterson is not always all there with the facts when he veers into current politics.
I know nothing about him but if he believes Pelosi about the insurrection hoax, then he probably watches fake news and a never Trumper.
Three weeks ago I was the paid guest speaker at a conservative action group’s weekly meeting. What did they want me to talk about? My trip to Washington, D.C. to attend President Trump’s rally.
For 45 minutes I spoke of the trip 6 old people took, how 5 of us attended the prayer rallies on January 5th, how downtown looked and “acted” on the 5th compared to the 6th, and so much more. I told them what the sea of President Trump supporters saw, heard and did on the 6th, and what our government did to us in return.
I told them that NOTHING the media reported represented anything we had experienced, and said activities at the front of the Capital were far different from activities at the back of the Capital, where most of the attendees never went.
Then they asked specific questions and I spoke for another 15 minutes.
When done many in the group said they had never heard from anyone who had actually attended the rally, and they were both shocked and grateful to hear my story and to learn the truth.
One man said I needed to write it down and give it to the historical society, so that one day someone might come upon it and read what really took place on the day our government failed us.
Since then, and with what you wrote about Jordan Peterson possibly believing the media about January 6th, I’ve come to realize there are very few people who know the truth of what happened, no matter what side they are on.
Raven, you yourself engage in speaking events? Thank You for your service sir.
Mass Psychosis, this meme of the 1/6 “insurrection” is very clever. Of course, this didn’t happen but this is what their rhetoric sounds like.
Ridicule and pushing to the absurd is the most effective way to handle them.
Mass Psychosis,
I am an old lady and as such blend into the woodwork of a society that thinks little to nothing of old people. But God gave me the spirit of a bulldog, so I use that “gift” often, then blend back into the woodwork.
I was watching it livestreamed that day and I saw people inside the Capitol building excited but peaceful, with armed officers walking unharmed among them.
His comment calling Jan 6 “insurrectionists” shows a gaping hole in his analytical abilities and that he accepts the political narrative without much trouble. I cannot put much stock in someone like him as he lacks intellectual curiosity and simple research skills.
He is a great genius and we all stand to learn from him, but he has always been a bit slow to catch on to the depth of what we are up against. He allowed himself to be vaccinated, then learned more and regretted it.
He has had some mental problems.
Haven’t we all?
I enjoyed it but think he speaks at too high a level for the average person.
Your Reach should exceed your grasp. How else will anyone grow in thought and deed?
Humanity is of a very broad nature. It isn’t possible to talk on everybody’s level at the same time. Because a thought is difficult to follow for some doesn’t mean the path of the thought should not be traveled at all.
Yes! One of the Canadian trucker organizers made that same insinuation in their Sat Jan 29th press conference. Ironic and disturbing, they don’t trust their own media, but appear to have bought into the narrative as far as America is concerned(?!)
Obviously, Alinski tactics work – use them against the enemies of freedom at every opportunity.
“appear to have bought into the narrative as far as America is concerned”
Well – consider the media they’re exposed to – what other narratives would they come up with, other than what they’re fed?
We’ve got a couple of articulate and astute Canadians here at Treehouse, but they’re a select sliver of no more than a few … they’re able to get the true story, the lowdown
But the rest of their countrymen will only get the globalist narrative unless something compels them to explore and stumble on beacons of light and truth like Treehouse
So I’m not surprised that most Canadians would accept the fictional Jan 6 leftist hysteria
How could they know otherwise?
Hell – our entire Left and much of our GOP are also touting the “insurrectionists / right-wing white nationalist / domestic terrorists” narrative
So I can’t necessarily fault some truckers and Jordan Peterson if the impressions they hold don’t measure up to OUR conservative American measure
Gnomesayin’ ?
^^THIS^^
No
Absolutely THIS!
Why would they accept it? If you can’t believe the “news” about your own country, why would you think they are more accurate about any other?
Critical thinking failure
This^^^^^^
Gell-Mann amnesia.
Sayin’ ain’t believe’n. Sometimes you shelter to keep your powder dry.
Why would they accept it?
Accept what? The Jan6 domestic terrorist narrative?
How would they know otherwise?
Like I said, we’ve got a few very sharp Canadian treepers that comment, but they’re very few and they somehow stumbled their way here where they can get the true story
Unless other Canadians similarly stumble onto Treehouse or Gateway Pundit or even Breitbart, how are they to know the world isn’t as their major media tell them it is?
I’m a new smartphone user, held out for ages with my old Motorola flip phone, and can barely work this newfangled one
But I get a “news feed” on it that reveals to me what American mainstream media are presenting
You wouldn’t believe it if I told you
Crazed “The View” perspectives, Republicans will eat your babies, “far-right” yada yada yada
We’re very well-informed here at Treehouse thanks to Sundanc’s keen analytical skills
So well-informed that we lapse into assuming that everyone knows what we know
But t hey don’t
Not a glimmer
People can’t know if they’re not told, or if they don’t seek out the right sources
His would they know otherwise? Because the media lips are moving and look at the politician’s that sprout this garbage.
Peterson knows everyone, all he would need to do is make a phone call and get his facts straight.
“His would they know otherwise? Because the media lips are moving …”
Well, YOU have that perspective because you’ve been awakened to MSN’s perfidy
If one hasn’t yet been awakened, one is not likely to have that perspective
You can’t presume that others know what you know
I’m a Canadian and have been following the truth of politics since Donald Trump went down the elevator. It is true that we are bombarded from all directions with leftist propaganda. However, I don’t see that as an excuse. We have the same access to alternative media as you do in the US. All it takes is a willingness to learn the truth.
Sadly, even the most educated here believe the nonsense (I have worked in Education for 20+ years and am probably one of the few “conservative” teachers left in the Public School System. Even the questions they ask when they are considering hiring now would disqualify me if I answered truthfully.
Let me give you a couple of personal examples.
I received a letter of reprimand for telling students (who brought up DJT in class when the talk was he would take away TikTok). I heard the regular “he’s a racist/sexist” crap). So, I pushed back on that and asked if it was OK to judge someone that they don’t know? I gave a couple of examples of why he probably wasn’t racist/sexist and we moved on.
Well, I was put on leave after a parent complained. I was investigated and issued a letter of warning. Apparently saying that I thought Trump “was a good guy” was just too much (and implied I was a racist myself). I kid you not.
Fast forward a few months. I was teaching media literacy and talking about how search engines are businesses and have the ability to hide/push various narratives (and hide information).
I used the example of the video of trucks bringing in ballots in the middle of the night as an example of something you couldn’t find unless you know where to look. I never stated anything about the election itself, just that some people thought this showed cheating and for some reason, it was being suppressed.
We talked about other examples as well and concluded we couldn’t believe everything on the Internet and needed to understand that search engines were not neutral entities. Well, the lesson went great and the students liked it. A couple of parents did not, so I was reprimanded again (for implying that the election held questions – ie. Biden did not win). Keep in mind, this was US politics I used as an example (in Canada), yet I was attacked for it.
You might say, I am stubborn (I am), but this was the first year I had ever had push back on these types of subjects. I have talked about DJT in class before when the students brought him up. Never an issue.
At the moment I am terminated (pending whether my union will stand up for me) for seeking compromise on the use of “preferred pronouns” for an 11-year-old girl that preferred male pronouns.
I asked (due to my personal beliefs – and those of some of my other students) if we could just use the male first name. Apparently, “compelled speech” is now a thing in Canada though, since my compromise was not only rejected but I was fired for seeking it.
I plan on fighting this all the way – it is actually a precedent-setting case. I need to find a lawyer willing to take it on pro-bono though. I have faith. But this is how far left Canadian society has gone in the public sphere. Canadians that don’t buy it typically say nothing in order to “get along”.
One must also understand that we do not have “freedom of speech” laws in Canada. We do have a Charter, Bill of Rights but they are not as protective.
Finally, we have our own alternative media as well (e.g., Rebel News, True North). The truth is there for those that wish to find it.
You say in a couple of those instances, the “parents” did not agree.
Or was it the higher ups in the organization who did not agree and are hiding behind the skirts of some made-up parents?
May the Lord protect and lead you in your struggle for truth. I am 62 years old living in the US. I cannot believe how far the rot has gone in my lifetime. I am surrounded by ‘well educated’ intelligent people who have never questioned the MSM narrative of everything spoon fed them. The most frustrating part is they don’t believe or want to even consider an alternative to what they are fed. I feel like I am in a television show and the ‘Walkers’ are the brain dead non thinking tripple jabbed who can’t wait to get their next one.
Viva Frei is a Canadian lawyer (often appears on the Rekieta Law stream) and has been (on Twitter) live-streaming from Ottawa. He’d be someone to contact who gets what’s going on. Good luck and sending up prayers for you!!
Thanks for your first-hand account, Jenkins, and good luck with your legal struggle
You partly make my point, though, in that you are likely part of a select few who are clued-in
Yes, alternative media are available but not everyone can sit at a computer for hours and be lucky enough to stumble onto it.
Many people will get their news from TV and radio, and when they ARE online maybe they’re browsing what Lady Gaga and Taylor Swift are up to. And many are probably getting the same Leftist news feed on their phones that I described in a reply just upthread.
I’m sure there’s a growing number of Canadians that are getting more and more clued in like you – and there’ll be an avalanche in the aftermath of this Trucker Protest.
But, still, that leaves hordes and hordes who only get the Leftist slant on news
My objection to what you said is just that you did not seem to understand that we in Canada watch the same internet you do.
“… we in Canada watch the same internet you do”
Yeah, but you need to be careful about who you imagine is included in that “we”
If you imagine that a large percentage of Canadians read Conservative Treehouse, I suspect you’d be grossly overestimating
Simply “watching the internet” doesn’t necessarily get you there
You need to stumble on the informative sites or have a like-minded friend point you there
I mentioned elsewhere on the thread the “news feed” I get on my smart phone
You won’t EVER see Conservative Treehouse cited on that feed, it’s 100% Left slant
I myself discovered Treehouse in a roundabout way
On an internet news article about the George Zimmerman trial, someone deep in the comments section mentioned the Treehouse … there was no link on any mainstream media news site, nor would there ever be
So – of that “we” you mentioned that “watch the same internet”- there’s likely a small fraction who pay attention to conservative alt-media like Treehouse, Gateway Pundit, etc – sites who give the real lowdown on topics that we Treepers are interested in.
The overwhelming majority likely get their information from Mainstream Media
Ya gotta be careful what you presume that other people “know”
As well, that other people have benign intentions about their nation and fellow countrymen, particularly ones with differing viewpoints from them
We’ve seen that expectation dispelled in a big way the past 2 yrs or so
Not only that but cell net providers are actively deleting references to wrong think!
One might send a link to someone via smartfone and it might never arrive and worse yet the would be recipient will never know you sent anything.
yep … media giant T-Mobile is stripping Gateway Pundit links from users’ texts

I was in hospital here in BC some 2 to3 years ago getting a plate in my wrist , to kill time I went onto my tablet within their wifi system, every single site on my daily peruse was banned,
that’s very telling, Hans – thx for that first-hand report
I had a slightly different experience in 2017, went to the local hospital’s surgery dept for a minor procedure and was surprised to find Fox News on the overhead TV screen instead of CNN
partial explanation is that minor surgery was co-located with orthopedic surgery and the waiting room was filled with oldsters, many probably arranging for knee- and hip-replacements
still, this was in a hyper Leftist state (Hawaii)
I thought to myself “will wonders never cease?”
Not sure they are fully buying in. The very first instructions were to never step into a federal building, even if invited. They are avoiding the appearance of violence and taking out the false flaggers quickly
who’s “they”? and what are they “buying into” or not?
I can forgive the average Canadian their ignorance of J6, but there is no excuse for Peterson.
yeah, I’ll grant you that …. he should be more aware, given that he espouses conservative principles like personal responsibility (make your bed, etc)
He was speaking of, guessing, what middle of road Canadians preferred in believing between two extremes, “the truckers were Jan. 6 type” and their PM was a juvenile lier.
That was my take. It was in the context of mocking the Confederate and Nazi false flags, and the media’s role in promoting those narratives.
Perhaps your interpretation is correct but as a leader/speaker he must be precise and clear on the most important issues, one of which is that the greatest danger the Canadian movement faces is false flag demonization and criminalization by the government as happened to protesters on Jan. 6.
He should be using Jan. 6 as an example of government crimes to yell to the truckers, “Danger danger, Will Robinson.”
No he didn’t. You misunderstood his point.
Either real, or he was speaking unclearly about how they’re perceived. However, he is usually fairly precise, so suggests he is misinformed.
No, he did not, what he is insinuating is the ‘perceived by Canadians’ Jan 6 insurrectionists . . . Although he didn’t say it fully, couched in the points of the argument, he’s saying it.
one of these two should replace castro
My vote would be for HER.
Canada has had a creeping totalarism for a while – for instance a problem allowing speech it didn’t like:
https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/free-speech-eh-why-is-canada-prosecuting-mark-steyn-1.720445
It’s wonderful to see Canadians and others around the world here at CTH – almost all of us really want the truth and to be free. I just hope that this COVID total BS was such an overreach by those arrogant “elites” that the pendulum swings back and knocks those WEF a-holes off their pedestals.
according to the ottawa zoom call last night btwn the police chief and residents some of the truckers are being investigated and even charged for ‘hate’ crimes. Canada has some interesting laws.
Keep in mind Canada still has deep vestiges of UK Law and some French Maritime Law as part of their historical roots, much as Australia and New Zealand. There are parts of UK Law that would likely make our heads spin if we were cognizant of all the nuances.
Sincere thanks to sundance and CTH for taking an active and eloquent part in the Freedom Convoy and for posting great videos like this one. At least these freedom fighters are getting some more deserved recognition.
Jordan and Dr. Ponesse were thrown into the Woke wood chipper sometime ago but miraculously survived it and have not given up. Exceptional Canadians.
Here is a deep and thoughtful 2017 interview of prescient Jordan with Mark Steyn. At that time Jordan was still fighting his University of Toronto employer over the enforced “use of non-binary gender pronouns.” His suggestion then was:
“It’s time to dismantle the university humanities departments and fire their professors. They are destroying Western civilization.”
Cursor to 4: 23
Whenever the Freedom Convoy ends but not the fight for freedom, I’m certain grateful Canadians will continue to follow CTH to share our common interests and be engaged in the perilous issues facing our neighbors and friends to the south. I will be.
This video from 2017 is a nice look into how far out of sync this whole woke movement has pushed society.
That is why I posted it Bessie.
I remember that most people at the time did not take these early woke policies seriously. Jordan was portrayed as a kook or an intolerant person by most of the media.
” They are destroying Western civilization.”
Psychiatrists and lawyers
Destroying mankind
Driving them crazy
And stealing them blind
As Strong As Samson — Procol Harum, Keith Reid, lyrics
Hee, hee…. Jordan thinks they can’t cancel Joe Rogan.
He’s technically correct, they didn’t have to, Joe folded all on his own.
.
Yeah. Although Peterson’s point, with which I agree, is that Rogan is to be admired not because he’s a brainiac or necessarily gets the right answers himself, but because he’s willing to hear out and consider all points of view, and keep doing so.
That, plus the fact that he was smart enough to make a $100 million… just like the rest of us.
Rogan is more recoverable than GFM.
Rogan does not understand as well as Sundance that once you give in you are perceived as weak.
Hopefully Rogan is in process of finding an alternate to replace Spotify.
Spotify?
Rogan’s ability to replace Spotify depends on low leveraged he is with his future earnings at Spotify. Bothe financially and emotionally. If he’s invested in something that requires he maintain this level of income it might be difficult, although he potentially could earn more over time. Emotionally, in that being removed by Spotify may be a big blow to his ego, though he would be a hero to many if he took a principled stand.
There’s *Locals* and *Rumble to start… Interesting interview by Dave Rubin with Glenn Beck re Rogan and how unless you have your own platform, TPTB can pull a Podcast out from under you.. (don’t know how to link it, you can find it on Rumble.com)
If you give in you are weak.
I watched that discussion earlier. Very thorough and intelligent overview of all the dynamics in play. And the larger constitutional and ethical issues.
Their sheer disbelief and frustration of how the country can so quickly turn into an advancing dictatorship is sobering.
It must be emotionally tough for them to be ostracized from respected academic circles and see who their former colleagues and peers really are with their masks of civility pulled off.
History repeating itself over and over and over.
No, but Rhyming over, and over,….
Jordan Peterson is an untrustworthy globalist.
(1) Peterson was an author of a UN whitepaper on “sustainable development”, working directly at a high-level UN working group.
(2) Peterson dined with wealthy globalists at the Trilateral Commission, the major globalist institution founded by David Rockefeller
(3) Peterson has been on record that he wants to use his platform to discourage nationalism.
(4) Peterson breathlessly demanded that Republican Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh step down during the lies and left wing witch hunt of his confirmation hearings.
(5) Peterson got himself addicted to pills as he pretended to be a role model to young men , telling them to clean their rooms (while Peterson’s own house was photographed as a total mess). Total hypocrisy.
(6) Peterson’s book Maps of Meaning is meaningless – it is literally hundreds of pages of pseudo intellectual jargon – a book full of nonsense.
(7) Peterson’s book
Maps of Meaning is directly inspired by the left-wing Frankfurt school of postmodernism.
(8) Peterson took in hundreds of thousands of dollars in donations for creation of psychological metric assessment tools, then had the nerve to make these proprietary – and turn around and charge through the nose for these metrics – from donors he had just fleeced.
Jordan Peterson dines with Globalists at the Trilateral Commission
https://theschpiel.com/culture/jordan-peterson-dines-with-globalists-at-trilateral-commission/
No one should be taking Jordan Peterson seriously. He is a left wing globalist.
A brief look at his actions show this guy has incredibly poor character, and should not be trusted.
That was a pretty average attempt at Correcting the Record, though not the best. Certainly not the worst. Thanks for trying, though! Employee of the Week will be yours eventually! Until then, go F- yourself.
Oh, I dunno
Seemed like a pretty thorough and well-posed critique that I find valuable at first reading and may cause me to re-assess my previously very high respect for Peterson …
I’ll have to give it another careful read and a bit of a mulling over
I don’t suppose you’d care to refute any of those specific points beyond calling the whole kettle black, Fringe?
For now, thanks asdfasdf
Word salad for the pylons of the world.
I’m stealing this.
LMAO
I wonder why the left hates Jordan so much then, if he is really one of their own…
For the record, Jordan Peterson took prescribed medication for his depression. That doesn’t make him a drug addict. When he tried to pause the medication, he got some very severe and rare withdrawal symptoms that almost killed him. As a clinical psychiatrist it is his view that for people who are genuinely depressed, antidepressants can be a good idea. He has said that many times when asked.
It was tranquilizers, not antidepressants
Right, it was benzodiazepins (sp?) he took for anxiety, but he has this problem with depression, which seems to run in the family. Just wanted to state that when Jordan got sick and disappeared from the scene, it wasn’t because he ran amok popping pills but because he stopped his prescribed medication too abruptly and was hit by some very unusual and serious symptoms.
benzodiazepine
That’s Valium, I think
XTC singer Andy Partridge has told a similar harrowing story of trying to come off valium dependence and has said that withdrawal was horrific
Andy Partridge suddenly broke down on stage in 1982, the tipping point being withdrawal from Valium that had been helping him deal with the stress of life in a touring band (Partridge says via Twitter that memory loss and limb seizures were worse aspects of his withdrawal).
and
I was in terrible pain and my nervous system was just going wild, like somebody had just run me over in a car. Then on the second night, this was in LA, I cracked-up completely. I really believed that I was going to die, it was that bad. I just had to get off the stage
It was anxiety, not depression. He was working an impossible schedule with many commitments. He was being attacked for defending Western Civilization, and most importantly his wife get a type of cancer that has a very poor prognosis. My wife has a body chemistry that seems to develop the most severe side effects to new medications. I’m guessing Jordan (and his daughter) has the same kind of chemistry. The all meat diet indicates this might be true.
asdfasdf, thanks for the pointers. There is no covering, or rationalizing those tracks. Peterson is a Loyalist. No Patriot would ever make it that far into the lair.
Yet, indeed, the left hates his guts…
Who someone dined with is extraordinarily weak criticism.
Trump dined with Xi.
Some of us enjoy Pseudo-Intellectual Jargon.
asdfasdf – Share any link you have, excluding those found on 4chan, canucklaw, Red Ice TV, and other sites of similarly vague and insincere origin that directly links and confirms Jordan Peterson authored “… a UN whitepaper on “sustainable development”, working directly at a high-level UN working group…..”.
Participation in panel discussions related to UN content does not qualify under the labels you have ascribed in your message.
asdfasdf meaning from Urban dictionary: Can signify a number of emotions including but not limited to distress, anger, amazement, joy, disbelief, confusion, dumbfoundedness, fear and despair. Can also mean wtf.
A couple of important items left off your list.
(9) Peterson routinely has colleagues over to his home and tries to pass off pizza he had delivered as his own, even going as far as spilling flour on the countertop.
(10) Peterson routinely hogs more than his half of the back seat when traveling with others.
(11) Peterson dines with Globalists at the Trilateral Commission.
(12) Peterson falsely claimed that Prince was lip syncing in the movie “Purple Rain” and it was his voice instead.
He sounds pretty thoughtful for a globalist, if true.
Also very grateful not to see a female face not caked up with makeup!
The battle for freedom in Canada is on a knife’s edge. Many, I’d say between 30-40%, are still scared from 2 years of propaganda from the MSM and politicos.
These poor souls are almost radically opposed to the Freedom Movement. They’d favor using the army against protestors to make them go away. As if freedom is the danger.
Meanwhile almost every working class person I know supports freedom. Very few are scared at all. Almost all strongly oppose mandates.
A small part of the intellectuals are with the working class supporting freedom. I’d say they were my very high IQ classmates in university. Who are smart enough to know they don’t know everything and know our freedom could be taken permanently.
The Truckers are winning right now. I expect the commie counter attack soon. The left are violent and organized with the MSM for cover. They need the truckers to be violent or to stage violence (false flag). Images of violence are require to push the narritive back towards the left’s side….
I confess I’m scared but I will not bend to thier insanity.
The “strategic” error of the left is they rely on the MSM.
The business model of the MSM is to “pay by the word”. I had never heard of Justin Ling until this protest started. Go look at his work. It looks like he “cuts and pastes” text to build up his word salad. That word salad feeds the converted, but leaves the hungry looking for more. The hungry dine on the buffet offered by the Truckers.
Game, Set, Match…
Put another way, Sheep are fed information. Wolves hunt for it.
The MSM’s business model separates the wheat from the chaff… as per Pareto’s Rule…
?resize=768%2C684&ssl=1
You’re slaying it today😏
I like this. Can I repeat it?
It’s a free world. I got it at a soup kitchen.
We will never win as long as we fear even the appearance of violence. If we are too afraid to do more than ask politely for them to step down, they will continue to run roughshod over us.
If there is violence, then what? If it’s violence against us, take them down. If it’s violence against them, well, I’m not going to advocate attacking a fellow-citizen over a political difference, but if it’s against those who have so blatantly stolen our freedom and taken our lives, go for it!
There has already been violence. A Leftist rammed a Jeep into members of the Convoy. Violence is going to happen. The real question should be, how much violence will we return?
I think your mom just called you for dinner…
Will you be bringing the salad?
And I just think you earned a spot in moderation….
Treeclimber is right – if all we’re going to do is politely ask for our freedom, the left will run over us with their own trucks. And the left will be let off easily. They need to be AFRAID of the people. What is the famous quote? “When government fears the people there is liberty. When the people fear the government there is tyranny.” Thomas Jefferson
Hmm. You speak like a…..what’s the word I’m looking for.
FED…….
We are painfully aware, there are those around us, that come here, looking at what is being said, and using those words against any one who posts here.
The topic you are posting about, is not one where most will engage you.
You know why?
Because we arent stupid not violent.
But nice try…. 🙂
Love and peace and good fortune to you…. 🙂
Exact opposite of what we need right now. I think the others are right you speak like a Fed.
“TreeClimber” has been here for years and they aren’t a “Fed”.
Thanks Boogy.
Fair enough.
Ill take your word for it.
Saying that stuff isnt helpful. Ill leave that here……
You know not of what you speak.
TreeClimber has been solid here for years.
Dr. Peterson also has another video on his yt channel, this one from Dr. Norman Doidge, one of Canada’s leading psychiatrists.
Dr. Doidge goes into the biological underpinnings of the Covid situation and resulting mindsets (political positions), explaining the workings of the brain and it’s Behavioral Immune System.
The video is a long one, over 3 hours…
However, it is well worth the listen…
It explains most everything happening today!
Moreover, it is the death knell for the Vaccine Lobby and the tyrants who are exploiting the pandemic!!!!!!
Thank you. I watched this. I it providess an excellent and balanced look at top-class research on the vax issues — much of which has been ignored by fauci and MSM.
Peterson should stop referring to politicians as our leaders; they are our servants. Ponesse, having spoken at the demonstration, has an immediate sense of the moment (and imminent danger) and must be disappointed with Peterson’s rambling pontifications.
Why does Dr Ponesse have no Wiki page?
Who knew in the race to totalitarianism, it would be Canada and Austrailia leading the pack?
Look at the 5 Eyes group. Add NZ to those 2.
As well as the UK, until Boris had to give in…..
Look at who is being ruled by tyrants….
The WEF is using 5 eyes to do this to us all. And the IC of all those nations gleefully play along.
The IC community in the West is complicit, up to their eyeballs ( pardon the pun ) in this, beyond any doubt.
The rot is deep and wide.
Boris. Sometimes being a bonehead is a GOOD thing.
There is a deeper motive than using 5-Eyes INTEL and Data assets.
The members of 5-Eyes were essentially seen as the last real bastions of “western” Style Freedoms. Without their full subversion, the risk to the new order always existed. In addition, Australia, Canada and New Zealand are small in terms of population, thus providing excellent test beds for subverting a western styled democratic based government and populations used to a wide range of civil liberties. We are witnessing the advanced progress in a battle that started nearly 100 years ago.
Small Dead Animals has a great article on the policing situation in Ottawa. It is informative.

Leftists abdicate the morality of truth in favor of relativity that they can then control for their own purposes. Let’s just take “my body, my choice”. It is favored for aborting your child even up to the child’s birth but disfavored when you fear a spontaneous miscarriage of your child by getting a shot of an experimental treatment when you have little or no risk of serious consequence from the disease being treated. When I was pregnant I rejected an amniocentesis test designed to determine whether my daughter was a Downs baby. A close friend of mine knew personally a woman who had a spontaneous miscarriage as a result of the test. Based on that I rejected the test because I weighed the risk of miscarriage against whether I cared if my baby was Downs. This was my baby my choice. See how the left’s relativism is the issue and is an issue of immorality. We should be prepared to call them on this whenever we have the opportunity. We often describe the Left’s relativism as hypocrisy, but it is not hypocrisy. It is the denial of humanity and the justification for the evil of othering certain persons to punish them. This is the essence of Cancel Culture and why we abhor it because time and again it is exposed as simply relative and not consistent in any degree except that it allows certain persons to do evil to certain other persons. lt is evil, pure and simple camouflaged by people pandering a lie of caring about [fill in the blank: racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, climate change, Black Lives Matter]. Those who are participatory but who themselves may not be abjectly evil are foolish, ignorant pawns of those who are.
It looks like 2 days after the Ottawa Chief of Police “went” Rambo, the police are spent…

This is the funniest thing I’ve read today. The absolute hair-on-fire tone, the information gaps, the straight-up lies, the desperate attempts to make the Convoy threatening, the spin so strong it would make a centrifuge dizzy – hilarious.
What makes this even funnier is the City of Ottawa brought in an ‘Elite” crisis-management team. I think they looked everything over… decided Ottawa was f*cked, and called it a day.

Imagine having a peaceful solution staring you in the face, and throwing up your hands in despair. End the flipping mandates/vax passports. Everyone goes home, those who prefer to cower in fear can triple mask and quadriple boost, and everyone is happy.
Yes, add the fact that time is against you. Within 2 weeks or so, the world has made the decision for you. Now that is the definition of leadership…
Has Sparkle weighed in on the attempted murder of peaceful protestors? Has he offered any solutions or meetings with his CONSTITUENTS? No, he hides and tweets and leaves the mess for others to sort out. Leadership indeed.
No way. The Leftist whackos love gulags and shooting people and running them over.
Some people NEED covid-1984 to give their pathetic meaningless lives …… meaning.
I speak from experience. I’m related to some of them.
You would think someone would just sit down and talk to the truckers like adults. Why has no one done this? This can’t be ignored away.
Oh my, that sounds like our Mayor here in Richmond Virginia, with city murders up over 2020 figures, he calls in the “violence interrupters” with salaries ranging up to $49,000 a year. Of course, they are not Elites, they are chosen for their real life experiences as criminals! Yep. The recruits have to have a criminal record to get hired. Richmonders are laughing about this and the police union is encouraging their officers, once again, to rebel against this. They are already down 130 officers from 2019.
These leftists are insane.
With all the hysterical leftist angst over the horns it’s almost time for the truckers to reverse the strategy. As a group they could select a time, say Monday at 10 am and all go silent. Total silence. For hours.
Then watch the heads explode.
What is the deal with the horns?
What hours are the horns allowed to sound?
Is it continuous?
Is it mostly air horns?
What I heard there is an agreement to limit / stop honking during sleep hours, and there are honk windows every 30 minutes or so where truckers can typically honk.
Most truckers are said to follow these rules.
These rules were put in place after the first few days or so as a compromise to the surrounding apartments from what I heard.
According to the article, they’re quiet from 8 PM to 8 AM. As a mom of small children I am massively in favor of noise ordinances, and that agreement sounds very generous. Most noise ordinances, at least around here, kick in at 10 or 11 and go off at 7.
They are quiet after 10pm according to the live streamer I have been watching.
Just my take…Peterson strikes me as an old school liberal. He wants to reset back to the time where liberal intellectuals could claim the moral high ground and say that government is the ‘good guy’. He’s on the right side of the argument for the wrong reasons. I’d be wary that if/when the Convoy succeeds, he’ll be at the head of the line to stick a knife in their backs.
Still, this is a unity movement, so his voice has value.
Freedom and Liberty are not partisan rights.
Ironically – one way to see it – is the truckers are protesting for the rights of the loud lib screamers also to be able to disagree.
There comes a time where your opinion does not match those of everyone around you.
The ability to voice your opinion then and be heard, is a right that all parties should want.
Even the loudest pro-government-mandate screamer will have an opinion of their own at one point (well hopefully, or their soul is truly lost and you might as well be a yes-robot)
I’ve watched probably more than 100 JP videos. IMO he is very much a classical liberal as am I. Can he misspeak? Sure. Haven’t we all?
11/01/2018Ralph Raico
[American Conservatism: An Encyclopedia , 2006]
“Classical liberalism” is the term used to designate the ideology advocating private property, an unhampered market economy, the rule of law, constitutional guarantees of freedom of religion and of the press, and international peace based on free trade. Up until around 1900, this ideology was generally known simply as liberalism. The qualifying “classical” is now usually necessary, in English-speaking countries at least (but not, for instance, in France), because liberalism has come to be associated with wide-ranging interferences with private property and the market on behalf of egalitarian goals. This version of liberalism — if such it can still be called — is sometimes designated as “social,” or (erroneously) “modern” or the “new,” liberalism. Here we shall use liberalism to signify the classical variety.

And you know that the Trudeau administration and even provincial wannabe’s have and will continue to infiltrate the protest with their own ‘truckers’ and ‘farmers’. I wonder if anyone has identified the confederate and nazi flag drivers or the swastikas graffiti. “Police are (still) investigating.”
‘Photos from the weekend rally show that a statue of Canadian icon Terry Fox had been covered with a sign reading “mandate freedom” with an upside-down Canadian flag placed in the statue’s hands.’
Oh, the humanity!
Imagrey is Powerful!!
I think the Leaders of the Truckers should have press conference and announce that at a specific time and date, everyone who supports the truckers all over Canada and the World should stand up and sing the Canadian National Anthem loud and clear! Have the Canadian musical artists coordinate it and the independent media video it and send it all over the world on social
media!
That would be so powerful and inspiring to everyone in the world fighting this madness!
… Maybe yes… Maybe no…
Gordon Lightfoot’s “The Wreck of the Justin Trudeau” would be a show stopper!
I’m not understanding this fascination with Jordan Peterson. He seems to be a very middle of the road thinker who accepts the mass media narrative which he exhibited with his comment about comparing the Canadian truckers to the Jan. 6th election protest. His perception is that Jan 6th was a violent insurrection which it was not, that’s just the pablum fed by the political indoctrination of the left and cowardly GOPe elites. Considering Jordan Peterson’s supposed status as a thinker he sure hasn’t looked too far regarding Jan. 6th here in the US.
I stopped watching the discussion after hearing his slur on Jan. 6th since I don’t see him contributing anything of worth.
What I find even more intriguing than conservative politicians non-participation is the leadership of the major unions – namely the Teamsters – stupid from a building a political relevance stand point
Neither Dr. Peterson nor Dr. Ponesse are advocating violence. They are deep thinkers. I hope the playfulness and good works advocated by Peterson can be maintained by the truckers and protesters.
We have seen the heavy hand of fraudulently selected leaders and how they despise our citizens. There is nothing playful about them. However, I remain optimistic that good will triumph over evil. It feels that it is time for tyrants to be seriously challenged. God Bless those truckers!!
I gotta admit, I had given up on the Canucks long ago. I should have reflected back then that every Canadian I had ever met (admittedly all RC Navy types) was rock solid, at some point you were gonna push them too far.
Go Canada!
Unlike the USA, Canadians never had a revolution. The working people have been living under the rule of Empire for centuries, and that gives them stoicism and solidarity. Also the hard winters require cooperation above all. This is not so much an angry rebellion as a simple recognition that a problem has arisen which needs to be resolved by working together. That is why the “protesters” are so peaceful, even bringing along their children and pets.
I was quite moved by that discussion.
Two elite abstract thinkers, and they are part of the elite class, who acknowledge the failure of their class and the need of the practical reality represented by the truckers to fix the problem. High and low must meet and work together.
“Stay playful and reassure” says Mr. Peterson to the truckers. “That attitude shows mastery.”
“The truckers will save us” says the sign the little girl holds up.
The truckers are warriors and smart and heroic and they will be historic.
It is no small thing to earn your living by driving a loaded 18-wheeler at high speeds in all weather, day after day, and a moment’s inattention can mean death. How many of us could do it?
GOD is using the Truckers to save Canada and give courage to the rest of the world to do the same. Thank you to GOD for your Mercy even when we are undeserving of it.
What’s the net, net? “No empathy Trudeau” …….. because the guy has absolutely no empathy for the people he serves (rules). What a bag of sh-t?
Like knights of old, Trudeau has raised the portcullis and retired to the keep. He hopes to run out the protest, just as the English did against the Peasants Revolt. That one resulted in the crushing of the Peasants.
At times like these, I prefer to not focus on the likes of these deep thinkers. Where were they these past two years of lockdowns, mandates and vaccines? Pontificating and chewing on a subject endlessly doesn’t do much to advance the cause of freedom. Action does.
My money is on the average person, like the truckers, who develop a plan of action and enact it. In 9 days, look at the results the truckers have achieved. Where is Trudeau? His Liberal Party is in chaos. The leader of the Conservative Party was forced to resign by his own party members. Provincial leaders are backing down on vax passes, mandates, and other Covid restrictions. The rabid Left is being exposed, from the MSM right down to the Chief of Police, Mayor, City Councillors and even neighbors.
A united citizenry is very powerful and those in control are doing everything to keep us beaten down and fearful. We have to reverse the narrative. Those elected serve at our pleasure. They need to act on our behalf and according to our wishes. If not, we have the right to assemble, protest, and remove them from the seat of power WE allowed them to have.
‘We are going to find out whether the truckers are heroes or terrorists.”? She says the work hero is opposite terrorist and it will “be interesting to see how this goes.” Say what? So, if the police or military start shooting and the truckers fight back they are terrorists? Okay, I’m all for turning the other cheek and not an eye for an eye, but if they did fight back this does not make them terrorists, Dr P. I do not understand this opening line of questioning.
I have a suggestion for these two intellectuals. Load up your SUV’s with some food and water and take it to the truckers. Your words mean nothing.
sorry, the “word” heror
It makes me proud to see that most of my neighbors to the north are so Proud of Their Country!
Canadians rise up while we Americans let Holder/Obama judges insure Nan remains speaker beyond November.
NO leader, including Trump, has called for us to do ANYTHING. Nothing. Crickets, just statements of “unfair.”
The one thing that has upset me the most about Deplorables is that they have waited for DJT to do what he will do rather than take up action themselves.
Organization is lacking. Period.
Take your blindfold off. I see election integrity action all over the country. Did you miss Virginia’s elections last year?
Either the chief was bluffing before, he’s bluffing now, or the resources he needs are buried in their own city’s protests and cannot go anywhere.
BRAVO Freedom Convoy 2022!!!!!

There we go with that insurrection b.s. again. As we dsaid about D.C.’s b.s., if you think that/this is an insurrection, you just wait.
Keep at it Canada, you can break this Orwellian occupation government. Keep pushing. We’re with you.
The “viral video” has been removed by the uploader.
Funny he should bring up Joe Rogan. I was actually being reminded of Rogan before that, by some of the things he was saying.
Mr. Peterson is speaking to Trudeau not the Truckers or millions of their supporters.
I am puzzled at his involved emotions and verbalization NOW. This is a speech framed as discussion which was demanded 18 months ago. ! I fail to hear anything new here. Peterson’s near hysteria could be likened to a man waking at 6:am to find a neighbor, silently entered his house, is at the foot of his bed. A neighbor with a history of doing this.
But they are pleasant people discussion about something they observe. Disturbingly he wants to believe the end of mandates are the real issue while government has planned another more deadly pandemic while it is joining NATO in Eastern Europe for a war both sides have already agreed upon. Their voices of reason telling us what we already know.
He is rightfully outraged at the Canadian government and press at their indifference to normal considerations of fellow Canadians; Peterson repeatedly, with strong emphasis and heartfelt emotions, cites the abuses of the Truckers, exclaiming his surprise. I’d like to point out, the Truckers organized this extravaganza themselves because hope wasn’t dependent on someone else. We need Doers who are are practical hands on application Thinkers.
When Truckers recognized the Canadian government’s plan will reveal when they understood well ahead of the departure of the convoy. It was then that tens of thousands understood their government – in truth. Their revelation was then not now.
If Covid-19 was fabricated in a lab – released or escaped – is of zero importance unless you like walking through the weeds of distraction forever. Millions of us across the world recognized the deviant MINDS, THE PSYCHOPATHY, THE HATRED of HUMANS-never met, the YEARS OF PLANNING TO KILL MILLIONS, the palatable joy of ABUSING CITIZENS by capturing them like animals and suppressing their voices in hospitals, courts, town meetings, online on every social site, the CENSORING of books, TV shows, news sites, the COVID CAMPS, LOCKDOWNS not for your safety but to prevent uprisings and DESTROY WHOLE SOCIETIES.
THE VICIOUSNESS of heads of state was and is transparent. I find little new here but disturbingly redundant. Understanding the cavernous disparity between the vicious capability of minds that “conceived” the pandemic plan. Expecting the worst of human behaviors in government I am not disappointed.
The Truckers are the action, the outward of what millions understand. The long meticulous planning displayed reveals the understanding these Truckers and their millions of supporters have.
We must expect the minds that conceived these flu’s will continue in their actions. Like a Father’s behavior is replicated in the offspring he conceived.
Apply a simple test; think of a disturbing indifference, a worst response, the lie, a physical abuse, brutality a Bully would use, a shocking abuse by the court – by police – a hospital, imagine if a mans character was devoid of guilt and compassion in opposition to people – like the Truckers and their supporters – you likely will prove yourself correct. Then you can resist.
Deal with the reality of your enemy, anticipate their unthinkable actions, stop complaining, stop waiting for your enemy to change. Everything they do and say evidences a conceived hatred of “different” and intention to use force to subdue you so you never win. This is not about differences or a fair war or justice under the law. Those doors slammed 18 months ago. Where have you seen federal Justice under federal law recently?
Jordan Peterson had a serious health crisis in late 2019. He used benzodiazepin (prescription) but when he tried to get off of it, he had serious withdrawals. He was finally treated in a Moscow hospital in late 2019. They kept him in a coma for over two weeks using propanol anesthetic.
During most all of 2020, Peterson was slowly recovering at his home in Toronto. In late 2020, he began interviewing noted professors and assorted intellectuals. These were done on an infrequent interval, weekly at best.
He continued to improve in 2021, and slowly increased his interviews and podcast publishing.
So, to answer the question, where was Peterson 18 months ago? He was basically fighting for his life.
He is not a political conservative and is mostly apolitical. In fact, he sees himself as more of a liberal. He favors helping people and expanding means of doing so. (He is a clinical psychologist.) It seems that in the past few years however, he has become disillusioned with liberal politics. He stood firmly against the use of gender pronouns when he was professor at University of Toronto. (He resigned his position there a few months ago.)
It seems that Peterson is against the vaccine mandates, and is very much on the side of the truckers, and against Trudeau.
Well said!
Givesendgo freedom convoy 2022 has now raised over 3 million dollars. Web site is working better today using Brave browser and Firefox appears to be working around the DDOS (Denial of Service) blockages. We need to put this GFM debacle down by seeing that these Canadian Patriot Truckers, farmers and ordinary people have all the economic support they need to carry on this effort that will benefit the whole world of regular people.
I agreed with everything except J. Peterson’s “Jan 6 level insurrectionists”. Seems very disconnected with his point of the media’s vile lies about the Truckers. Ummm…….does he believe the media’s vile lies about Jan 6th??
Let’s hold an election
Isn’t it ironic that it is truckers who are taking down the elites.
Isn’t it ironic that it is the truckers who are much wiser than the elites.
Isn’t it ironic that it is the truckers who are dismantling the specious arguments of the know-it-all elites.
And isn’t it ironic that it is the Canadians – some of the kindest, most tolerant people in the world – who have had just about enough of this Covid pandemic nonsense.
After watching this video a couple times, it occured to me that the media–Canadian and US–are serially and egregiously guilty of the 9th Commandment–“Thou Shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor.”
Let me explain….
Members of the media are generally “well” educated (many go to “prestigious” colleges and universities), and are very knowledgeable of current events. In other words, they are as plugged in to happenings in the world as any group on this planet. Thus, they know–or should know–all sides of an issue.
Yet, as know all too well, they intentionally, often with malice, “report” the news from a biased, often purposefully dishonest, point of view. Given the media’s relative authority and power to shape and move public opinion, it is nothing less than a violation of God’s law to intentionally report something that is erroneous, or to purposely omit (ignore) contextually important information.
That is no different than accusing your neighbor of something they did not do. But to do so hour after hour, day after day is nothing less than demonic.
Well said, Maximus
see cartoon upthread
This all sounds like a reasonable conversation, between two reasonable people.
It also confirms my belief and prior expressions that the truckers/protestors need to demand energy independence as well. While the attention of the world is upon them.
Remember, ALL of these lockdowns were started after the yellow vest movements in France were demanding lower energy costs.
Oh look, pandemic. Shut up. Yellow vests go home.
It should be a non-negotiable, and at least 80% of the populations of every country would be on board.
Excellent Excellent Interview 👍👍👍
