“Free speech is how we learn” — Jordan Peterson. (How ironic that the New Left was born, to a good degree at least, via the Free Speech Movement at the University of California, Berkeley in Fall 1964! So you can see how extreme the Left has become: leftists went from “free-speech advocacy” to “no-speech advocacy”). (The Free Speech movement began when a Jewish leftist was arrested for refusing to show ID and the police car which contained him was physically blocked — prevented from leaving — by hundreds of leftist students for 32 hours).
“A bipartisan panel on civil liberties at Yale Law School was disrupted last week when more than 100 law students tried to drown out and intimidate the speakers, who eventually needed police to escort them out of the building, according to reports.” (You would think that law students would have more respect for the First Amendment. As someone noted: America is heading for a lawless era, where “woke” ideology trumps law and logic).
