Compelled Speech Is A Dangerous Legal Precedent
- Jordan Peterson argues governments should not compel specific speech, calling legal enforcement of pronoun use a dangerous extension of postmodern ideology into law.
- He frames the Canadian move to mandate pronouns as ideological legal fiat backed by human rights tribunals functioning as social justice courts.

- Peterson notes postmodern activists deny biological influences on gender despite abundant evidence of sex differences in personality and temperament.
- He cites cross-cultural studies showing gender differences increase in egalitarian societies, implying biology's role becomes clearer when social constraints are removed.

- Peterson suggests this maternal circuit casts labeled groups as infant victims and outsiders as predators, driving demonization and calls to eliminate opposition.
