I really think President Carter can rest easy that Biden will go down as "worst ever."

Think I'll just post NY Times article headlines without extracting the whole article so people can actually read it. This is bull shit, posting stuff that people can't read without forking up some $ or giving out an email address or shutting down your ad blocker. Like applications that want access to your email contacts, another thing I won't do. Snooze Day does this too, as well as another LI newspaper, can't remember whic

If it sooooooooo important and informative, print the damn thing, without extensive editorial comments of course...

Canadian psychologist and author [[U]Dr. Jordan Peterson[/U]]('https://www.foxnews.com/media/jordan-peterson-warns-western-countries-woke-totalitarian-social-credit-system-highly-probable') described his ongoing court battle over free speech on Friday, after he was ordered to take social media training because of past controversial posts.

Peterson, a professor emeritus of the University of Toronto psychology department, was sentenced to mandatory social media training by the Ontario College of Psychologists last year. He was forced to comply with the order after three Ontario Divisional Court judges dismissed his legal complaint against the administrative board.

On "[Fox & Friends]('https://www.foxnews.com/media')" Friday, Peterson was doubtful that social media training would change things.

"I'm in their hands at the moment fundamentally because they've already sentenced me, so to speak, to an indefinite period of social media retraining, with some social media expert, whatever the hell that is," Peterson bluntly remarked. "So I'm obliged to undertake that training, at my own expense, for an indefinite period of time until they in their wisdom presume that I've learned whatever it is I'm supposed to learn. Which, given my nature, strikes me as highly unlikely."

The academic has generated controversy in recent years with several posts calling out transgender ideology, politicians, and climate change. The psychologist was suspended from Twitter in 2022 for rebuking transgender actor [[U]Elliot Page[/U]]('https://www.foxnews.com/media/twitter-suspends-jordan-peterson-tweeted-elliot-page').

Peterson said the goal of the board was to "take his license."

All professionals in Canada under a regulatory board are at risk of losing their livelihoods, the psychologist argued.

[The academic board]('https://www.foxnews.com/category/us/education') is "making an example of me," he said, as one of the most well-known dissenting voices on gender ideology.

"It's definitely the case that the goal is to take my license," he said. "Because what they'll claim after dragging me through, whatever this re-education is going to be, is that I can't be taught, that I'm ungovernable… that he's a disgrace to his profession and ungovernable."

Peterson previously pledged to be transparent with the public on whatever training he is forced to take.

Peterson also shared information Friday about his [online university]('https://www.foxnews.com/category/us/education/college') he's launching as an alternative to "corrupt" universities.

"We have about 30 professors. And they are very, very good professors. I've been privileged to meet some of the most intelligent and informed people in the world. We brought them down to Miami and filmed them, producing eight-hour lectures… we're going to soft launch that the end of February," he described.

Peterson said he hopes to provide a widely available, inexpensive and high-quality option for students with the new project.

Thanks for posting, and what a load of shit. I think he's totally correct in contesting all of this. However, I've always been of the lowest opinion of the value of "Social Media" and can't fathom why people even use it as a soap box, you're not going change anyone's mind.

How people can make 6-7 figure salaries being "Internet Influencers" is beyond my comprehension, but the fact that the Kardashian family is worth billions just cries out how F-d our society has become and how our moral social and financial compasses are totally spinning in circles.

It wasn't on NYA, but on a different fishing website somebody was stupid enough for asking for advice on how to become a striped bass fishing social influencer. Should have bookmarked the thread. This "maroon" thought people would be excited to help him achieve his goal. As one would expect from a bunch of grizzled group of bass fisherman, his request was greeted as warmly and inclusively as a very loud, wet fart in church!

On a smaller note, one of my acquaintances assists a young man who plays video games on YouTube, and makes 350K-400K per year. Playing video games online from his basement! Go figure.
Would have loved to read the comments regarding the internet fisherman!! :ROFLMAO:*

Sponsored by Pfizer & Moderna. Those folks made bank getting out the Covid MRNA shot narrative. e.g, the corporation sponsors them. Look what happened with Stanley mugs...same shot. Blew up on social and translated to $$$$$.

And I agree, it's disgusting. Glad you opined on it. Others are too afraid here to do that!

How f'ed up things are. No moral compass.

Why?

It's By design.

[Border Patrol]('https://www.foxnews.com/category/us/immigration/border-security') has "no plans" to remove razor wire placed by Texas along the southern border, a senior Customs and Border Protection (CBP) official told Fox News on Friday, stressing a "strong" relationship with Texas despite an ongoing legal battle between the state and the administration.

A vote of no confidence towards the president. Awesome.

Liberals at work. Ask for help after they realize they messed it up. God forbid they are held accountable. Or pay for their mistake.

Ah, The Kardashians & other ridiculously over-compensated "Influencers" predate mRNA vaccines by 10 - 20 years. Care to cite a better example?
