Didn't actually listen to what Dr. Peterson said, huh?
Perhaps you should apply for a job with Channel 4?"I hate him passionately", he's "a demonic force" - Tucker Carlson, in private, on Donald Trump
"Every line of serious work that I have written since 1936 has been written, directly or indirectly, against totalitarianism and for democratic socialism" - George Orwell

No, they are the exact same thing liberal hate speech laws are meant to do: make pillars of progressive ideology unassailable by punishing anyone who questions, mocks or otherwise attacks them in any way. And when I say exact same thing I mean literally the exact same thing. There is no difference whatsoever."As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths." Isaiah 3:12
