I don\u2019t like the flag. I think it\u2019s a piece of idiocy. I don\u2019t understand why it changes every bloody week. I don\u2019t know who makes those decisions,\u201d Peterson said. \u201cI don\u2019t like the acronym and all the mystery surrounding it. I don\u2019t like the fact that the LGBT agenda, whatever that is, increasingly dominates the school system. I don\u2019t like the fact that it\u2019s targeted at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/uganda-halts-vote-campaigning-in-some-areas-opposition-cries-foul\/\" title=\"Uganda halts vote campaigning in some areas, opposition cries foul\">young people<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Peterson said he also has a problem with the idea of the LGBT \u201ccommunity,\u201d especially in light of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/flashback-teacher-sues-school-board-after-being-fired-he-refused-to-compromise-on-trans-pronouns\/\" title=\"Flashback: Teacher Sues School Board After Being Fired \u2013 He Refused To Compromise on Trans Pronouns\">gender ideology<\/a> and its influence on children.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBecause it\u2019s not a community, and it\u2019s especially not a community right now, because the trans-pushing, gender-affirming butchers and liars primarily target young people whose most likely outcome on the sexual front is homosexuality,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo the transgender-affirming butchers and liars are differentially destroying the youthful gay community,\u201d Peterson added. \u201cAnd that\u2019s not a community by any stretch of the imagination.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In recent years, a wave of seemingly gender dysphoric children in both the U.S. and Europe have been approved for drugs and surgeries to make them appear as the opposite sex. Some European countries and U.S. states have since pumped the brakes on these treatments.<\/p>\n<p><b><a href=\"https:\/\/onelink.to\/dwapp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" aria-describedby=\"sk-tooltip-9096\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/onelink.to\/dwapp&#038;source=gmail&#038;ust=1716990157394000&#038;usg=AOvVaw33qQydjIo8bet419amChif\">CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n<p>Peterson added that he thinks transgender surgery is \u201cNazi, Auschwitz level awful\u201d and such surgeries on children should not only stop, but the surgeons who performed them should be \u201cimprisoned.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Peterson also cited author G.K Chesterton, who offered a rule of thumb that you should not destroy a fence before knowing why it was put up \u2014 in other words, people should not destroy an institution or tradition before understanding why it is in place.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe pride movement has torn down a lot of fences, and maybe some of those fences needed to go. But all of them didn\u2019t need to go, and there\u2019s plenty of monsters coming out to play now,\u201d Peterson said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s why we\u2019re seeing this butchery in the medical community, abetted by idiot allies and driven by greed. And those aren\u2019t the worst monsters that exist. And so, if you tear down enough fences, you\u2019re going to find out what they\u2019re for,\u201d Peterson said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKeep pushing. Keep pushing. You\u2019re going to lose everything you\u2019ve gained. And I\u2019m not celebrating that at all,\u201d Peterson said.<\/p>\n<p>Peterson also criticized Pride Month\u2019s name.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou should be very careful what you name things, and \u2018pride\u2019 is not a virtue,\u201d Peterson.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPride is a cardinal sin, and there\u2019s a reason for that,\u201d he continued. \u201cPride means something like stubborn refusal to change when evidence of error is accruing, and it\u2019s not a good thing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Peterson noted that some LGBT supporters may argue that they do not really mean \u201cpride,\u201d they are just trying to \u201caffirm\u201d their identities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFair enough, I suppose, to some degree, but that was the name that was chosen, and that\u2019s the name that stuck,\u201d Peterson said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s a real tinge of narcissism, sexual narcissism, about the whole pride spectacle,\u201d he said. \u201cDo people have the right to express their sexuality the way they see fit? To some degree, if it\u2019s consensual and among adults, but generally among human beings with any degree of civilized comportment whatsoever, it\u2019s a pretty damn private affair.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s also the case that identities based on something as narrow as sexual desire, let\u2019s say, aren\u2019t identities at all. They\u2019re pronouncements of subjection to instinctual whim,\u201d Peterson said.<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week, Dr. Jordan B.
