Two neo-Marxist professors at Wilfrid Laurier University in Canada were recorded berating a young female teaching assistant for showing her first-year communications students a debate where professor Jordan Peterson argued against the use of non-gendered pronouns.
Teaching assistant Lindsay Shepherd can be heard breaking down into tears as her supervising professor Nathan Rambukkan and another professor, Herbert Pimlott, accuse her of creating a “toxic” and “problematic” environment which constitutes violence against transgendered students.
Here’s the audio from the National Post:
Full tape:
Here’s some highlights:
00:03:10 “These arguments are counter to the Canadian Human Rights Code”
Rambukkana: …[Peterson] lectures about critiquing feminism, critiquing trans rights —
Shepherd: I’m familiar. I follow him. But can you shield people from those ideas? Am I supposed to comfort them and make sure that they are insulated away from this? Like, is that what the point of this is? Because to me, that is so against what a university is about. So against it. I was not taking sides. I was presenting both arguments.
Rambukkana: So the thing about this is, if you’re presenting something like this, you have to think about the kind of teaching climate that you’re creating. And this is actually, these arguments are counter to the Canadian Human Rights Code. Even since … C-16, ever since this passed, it is discriminatory to be targeting someone due to their gender identity or gender expression.
By C-16, Rambukkana is referring to a recently passed federal bill that prohibits discrimination based on gender identity or expression. His read of it is dead wrong; it’s obviously not a violation of C-16 to screen a TVOntario program at a university. For one thing, the bill only applies to federally-regulated industries, which does not include universities. Even if it did, legal experts contacted by the National Post were extremely dubious that Shepherd’s actions constituted anything remotely resembling discrimination.
00:04:22 “It has created a toxic climate for some of the students” Shepherd:Like I said, it was in the spirit of debate.
Rambukkana: Okay, “in the spirit of the debate” is slightly different than ‘this is a problematic idea that we might want to unpack.’
Shepherd: But that’s taking sides.
Rambukkana: Yes.
Shepherd: It’s taking sides for me to be like “oh, look at this guy, like everything that comes out of his mouth is B.S. but we’re going to watch anyway.”
Rambukkana: I understand the position that you’re coming from and your positionality, but the reality is that it has created a toxic climate for some of the students, you know, it’s great —
Shepherd: How many? Who? How many? One?
Rambukkana: May I speak?
Shepherd: I have no concept of how many people complained, what their complaint was, you haven’t shown me the complaint.
Rambukkana: I understand that this is upsetting, but also confidentiality matters.
Shepherd: The number of people is confidential?
Rambukkana: Yes.
He understands her “positionality.”
These lunatics belong in mental institutions, not universities.
Wilfrid Laurier University president and vice chancellor Deborah MacLatchy issued an apology to Shepherd after the story went viral.
Shepherd questioned MacLatchy’s sincerity and said if she’s serious about protecting free speech she should adopt the University of Chicago’s policies which say “being offended” or “triggered” is “not enough to suppress or silenced debate.”
everyone has a gender, even NRA members so deal with it.
Liberals suck.
BlackMoe, Obola and his tranny partner MOOCHELLE also suck, LOL.
yes , one of two genders . male and female
We are proud of this girl she’s holding her fuckin own with these P/C lunatics.
I’ve been following this story for a few days now there’s alot more to the story.
Go get em girl were with ya
These communists are literally evil. And that’s a fact.
And, they infest every institution in Western Civilization. They have destroyed the last 3 generations of people in all the Western nations, since the began entrenching themselves in the early 1930’s.
They sense victory, because White people are too polite, too afraid, to stand up to them. Every day they sit in their positions of “authority”, however menial, brings them closer to their goals, and makes it that much harder to get rid of them.
nice to see a teacher for once who is not buggering her students
I couldn’t help it. If I had been present during this conversation I would have beaten both these men senseless as they are corrupting young minds.
Menzo, I just finished listening to the audio. I take my hat off to that girl for standing up to those libturd dildos. I also would enjoy having a shot at them myself. The girl would be better off leaving that university altogether.
Wilfrid Laurier is arguably one of the least highly regarded universities in Canada.
Just look at those two freaks!! Are you kidding me? This is what America’s education system has become.
As a Canadian who has taught at Univ. of Alberta, Carleton Univ, Univ. of Ottawa and a couple community colleges, I can tell you Wilfrid Laurier is one of the bottom ranked schools in the country. Interestingly, it was know as Evangelical Lutheran Seminary of Canada back 100 years ago. This prof. Dr. Petersen, at Univ of Toronto is a very critical issue for everyone to follow, as they are trying to force him to kowtow to the gay uber alles Nazi speech police. IMHO, MUCH of what happens in Canada follows a few decades later into the US, so it is worth your while to review Petersen’s case. He is a true hero
TEST, I appreciate your insight into academia and everything else you post here.
yes Canada has advanced social diseases. we have one called the NRA here in the states. they even had a gun grabbing president with brain disorders, Heston. Heston was one of the actors that called for the 1968 arms bans and registration. Heston was a sweet old Moses, and a snowflake. he would hold up an old flintlock from time to time but never would actually fight for his country. he was the perfect stooge for hunters to believe in.
Speaking of gender speech police (book burnings start next month by the gay Nazi), I recently – during the N.C. bathroom debate – sent this in to Shedd Aquarium in Chicago. Hope you have fun with it. Better yet, steal with I wrote and use it yourself in your own emails.
——————
I plan to visit Shedd Aquarium in the near future, and have a question for you. With the increasing recognition of the rights of the LGBTQ community today – such as the recent move by Target stores to allow biological men (who have only XY chromosomes) identifying as women into women’s washrooms – and with which I am sure you fully agree – I would like to know if you will allow me, in the interest of intellectual and moral consistency, to similarly use the dolphin pool as a “washroom,” should the need arise during my visit, just like the other dolphins at Shedd do. You see, Ms. Rodgers, I have always identified as a dolphin – I love swimming, taking baths, and really enjoyed watching Flipper as a child. I knew very early that I was a dolphin, despite the oppressive human-centric bias against us who identify as dolphins, and despite my having two legs and opposing thumbs (which I hope to remedy through publicly funded surgery).
I do hope you will provide the same respect to us dolphins who just happen to have different chromosomes from what we identify as, in addition to a human-like body, and that Shedd will quickly approve of us in the LGBTQ-D community. (Yes, the “D” stand for “dolphin,” and while you may consider this absurd today, ten years from now I am sure you will look back and understand that I was just ahead of the times a bit.) You may also wish to consider providing litterboxes for people who identify as cats – see this woman here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5gWXwbToNpA, or hay in your cafeteria for this former person who now identifies as a horse https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5rc1GG7L8bM
Copying a few others here who also identify as dolphins. Perhaps we’ll all visit as a group!
Finally, Ms. Rogers, could you please provide the rationale behind your denial, should you answer in the negative re. my using the dolphin pool? I am very curious to understand why biology is determinative in some cases – e.g., your Shedd Aquarium restricting us human-appearing dolphins (who self-identify as dolphins) using the pool as a washroom like the other dolphins – but not determinative in all cases, such as in the Target bathroom situation, where people who have only XY chromosomes are now allowed to use women’s washrooms.
Eeee-yeee-eeee (that’s dolphin for “thank you,” which I’m sure you know.
Flipper Jim
How did we get here? How did the left get to sodom and gomorrah with no resistance? Do people understand where this is going?
This country, and the whole damn world, really are in need of a thorough cleansing, eradicating liberals and muslims, all parasites, all of them. I’m really getting tired of this shit.
Must see? Vegainator Stienberg YouTube.
Wow. The left has gone full retard. They will not quit. Anyone that sends their child to one of these schools deserves what they get after 4, 6, or 8 years. A fully-indoctrinated communist.
Wilfrid Laurier Univ. has all the intellectual heft of a junior high. In terms of academic reputation, the place is a joke.
Check out the, Elin Krantz , story at whiteresister.com. Stupid Swedish girl made video of her and refugee sex singing the national anthem , good picture of her fate?
My country blows. Canadians get your balls out again. I can not keep quiet anymore. This has gone toooo far. Big brother can go suck it. I will stand tall until I die. Freedom of speach isn’t optional for freedom to work. When will these moron university profs remember what happened to socialist dictatorship societies in recent history. It always ends with people behind barb wire that wished they would have said something while they still could. It always starts with the loss of free speach. I will not go quietly into the night. Everyone reading this…you are the resistance. I stand with you. Station is on the air now and standing by. 254 clear.
Canada used to be a very free place, but by the early 1990s, political correctness went wild, often led by Naomi Klein.
Since, every year has got worse and the governments stranglehold on Canadian thought more driven by an agenda. The agenda is to get rid of old Canada (white) and make a new country (not white).
They now pay refugees more than most low-paid workers and there are food banks and drug-addled people all over the cities.
Beware, because Canada is the testing ground for every idiot idea going. If it works in Canada, it comes to your country next.
Can we get back to what shtf used to be about . I miss those days .
t2w, there’s no going back. All we are reading and witnessing are the events of the progression towards SHTF. Like so much else, acceptance by society of the inexorable movement step by step of perverse thinking and actions just doesn’t stop. The only thing we can do is learn how it happened, is happening; in order that, when post-SHTF finally arrives we will never make these same mistakes again.
I do want to know my enemy. These teachers are doing as much harm as bullets to the young and ignorant. They need to be killed just as badly as the other threats to freedom.
Menzo, you just nailed it again. KNOW THY ENEMY. That is always essential.
In a way I know you are right; but somehow I also feel that I’d like my enemy to be as stupid as possible. And I am reminded of the old adage: “Never get in the way when your opponent is doing something stupid”
Paranoid, there’s something I can never dispute.
Excessive makeup and fake boobs dont turn ladyboy into a woman!
Since when does Canada set the standards? These enablers will be the first to go down. Lets see how they survive a SHTF event. The left will eat its own.
What we do here eventually makes it south of the border.
Remember, not all of us are “enablers” as you stated.
Lol 36 million people compared to 360 million. Naw well survive and after your cities are burnt to the ground with civil war well we’ll just come in and “assimilate) your kind. Canada set the standard on quite a few things , you ignorant hick
As a dual us and Canadian citizen who has lived half my adult life in both countries, I think I’m uniquely equipped to address this question. As a matter of fact, there are a number of precursors I have seen in Canada, that later came to pass in the United States. The truth is, that there are radical leftists in both countries, who are destroying both Nations. We do not need to fight as conservatives and Libertarians between the countries, rather we need to have both countries go back to their original foundations, which were not leftism we see today
Thank you for saying this! Let’s have the voice of reason here! There are conservative folk on both sides of the border, let’s not alienate each other! That’s what lib turfs want us to do.
I’m ashamed to be called a Canadian! My country is becoming a sespool of left wing trash and is becoming more and more socialistic everyday. We need a serious ‘reset’ in this country!
My fellow Canucks,
It’s not our great country itself your upset with its what’s been allowed to happen to it yes selfie socks is a complete embarassment so is Wynne and Notley. They will be swept from power over the next 18 months (voted out) make no mistake I’ve seen a slight reversing trend lately in that ; people like her have made it to the media CBC is very liberal and they printed a year ago no news would be put ked up on this story she’d have been fired and her story swept under the rug.
Our libtarded left is currently trying to tear down our forefathers statues and discredit them.
That little notion went NOWHERE our statues still stand monuments historical documents all unchanged.
One asshole defaced a ww11 monument the day before remembrance day it was quickly cleaned and that guy was jailed by the end of the day. So in short I believe political correctness dipping minority groups gays trans all of it will be gone.
I can still call a Spade a Spade here and not be punished for it. Stand your ground like this girl did a liberal will always paint themselves into a corner.
Call em out on they’re shit ah?
At the end of the audio, the girl claimed that all perspectives are valid in a university but the libturd professor let it slip and admitted they’re not. Only the libturd perspective matters in colleges and universities.
Two to whisper I’ve been screaming about getting back to what shtf is and how we can share input on tried and tru methods for dealing with it. I’m sick of hearing about pc the left and all the fear mongering. None of these threads talk about self reliance or things the individual can do to insulate themselves from shtf. You have to handle things on your own level. Can’t spend your life worrying about the psychopaths in charge. They sure as hell aren’t concerned about us little people as they call us.
Note to those vile, evil, disgusting abhorrent “profs”:
Toxic environment? Look in the MIRROR, you vile, arrogant faux profs.
Gender? Ever hear of chromosomes Contrary to your ignorance, there are only XX and XY chromosomes (male and female) in us. If I identify as a DOLPHIN, despite having only human chromosomes and insist you call me “Flipper,” will you do so?
Your communism MURDERED 100 freaking MILLION people last century, per the Black Book of Communism, Harvard Univ. Press. You vile, evil, disgusting, filthy, arrogant, nasty, ignorant “profs” are 8 gazillion times worse than what you accuse this woman of.
The liberals once opposed war, now they oppose all common sense. They wanted Hillary, enough said. I realize when many are young that you want to fight the existing systems wrongs, that’s normal and a sign of growing up. What I hear though is a way out in left field whack job style following a scripted how to do the elites dictates to preserve the divide.
they want hillary so that they can continue their criminal enterprizes. not because hillary is liberal.
When will these professors be punished??? And demoted???
Be honest: ‘Diversity™’ makes free speech impossible.
Diversity™ means everyone MUST think alike about the agenda of ‘diversity™’
Freedom now from this enforced, coercive, parasitic, anti-White, genocidal diversity. Its a crime, not a ‘policy option’
These neo-Marxist professors at Wilfrid Laurier University in Canada are Orwellian.
“In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.”
George Orwell
In a society that is fascist, or on their way to becoming so, the rule of traditional and rational law is replaced with the law of ideology, which is really mob rule enforced by ideological goons.
Seems maybe I’ve seen some of the new facial recognition cameras? The are a white plastic box about 12 inches by 6 inches with a 10 inch disc metallic. Some talk about facial recognition drones armed. Seems full spectrum dominance is their ultimate goal? Maybe in the past we had free will? But now with genetic engineering, And AI drones God must step in?
Seems infrared signature might become a major SHTF problem? Seems our guys won’t go for this? Unless there aren’t many of our guys left?
I have done some college teaching and you have no idea how crazy some of the professors are. your children are being indoctrinated to the left of the political spectrum, not educated but indoctrinated
We need a purge.
Notice how beautiful this young woman is and how ugly and homely the politically correct people are? Bitter much?
We should be celebrating beautiful, healthy young women not wasting our time placating sex freaks such as trans etc. Beautiful young women go on to have children and form the bedrock of civilization. Trans and other sex freaks are just that: a circus side-show that thrives in wealthy societies because they can afford the time to entertain such nonsense. It is dangerous to waste time on these people since no civilization thrives because of them.
I go out of my way to hire beautiful young women and make sure they make lots of money so they can thrive. I recommend you do the same or this society and civilization is going to end.
The university professors are full of politically correct BS. People do NOT have gender. Some languages have gender. For instance, French nouns have male and female gender.
People are one of two sexes. There are ‘insies’ and ‘outsies’ and if you aren’t sure, pull down your pants and have a look. If you’re still confused, that’s your problem, not mine.
