American culture has a few depressingly familiar rituals. One of them is the solemn apology.<\/p>\n

\u201cPlease forgive me, O left-wing guardians of allowable opinion, for I have expressed an unapproved thought.\u201d<\/p>\n

It\u2019s awful to watch someone debase himself like that.<\/p>\n

Which is what makes it all the more thrilling to encounter someone who stands his ground, refuses to apologize, and tells the thought controllers to take a hike.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s exactly what the professors in this collection did.<\/p>\n

\n<\/span>What collection is that? Why, my new (and free) eBook, Think for Yourself: Professors Who Resisted the Mob Tell Their Stories<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Each one of these people has experienced or chronicled what goes on at the mental institutions we laughingly call universities.<\/p>\n

And each one has refused to apologize for telling the truth, being normal, or whatever other made-up offense got the shriekers riled up.<\/p>\n

The person who fits this description best, and who is now known around the world, is of course Jordan Peterson. He told the gender crazies: I\u2019m not doing this<\/em>.<\/p>\n

He became an international sensation. It all started with his refusal to comply with the latest edict. He said that if they fined him he wouldn\u2019t pay, and if they imprisoned him he\u2019d go on a hunger strike.<\/p>\n

This is the last thing in the world the left wanted. They don\u2019t want to have to imprison a psychology professor who taught at Harvard \u2013 not because they\u2019re humane, since they\u2019re not, but because doing so would make them look bad. They simply want to intimidate him into doing their bidding in the first place, so it never has to come to that.
