Penguin Random House Employees Want Jordan Peterson’s Upcoming Book Blacklisted
During a tense town hall, staff cried and expressed dismay with the publishing giant’s decision to publish ‘Beyond Order: 12 More Rules for Life.’
Four Penguin Random House Canada employees, who did not want to be named due to concerns over their employment, said the company held a town hall about the book Monday, during which executives defended the decision to publish Peterson while employees cited their concerns about platforming someone who is popular in far-right circles.
“He is an icon of hate speech and transphobia and the fact that he’s an icon of white supremacy, regardless of the content of his book, I’m not proud to work for a company that publishes him,” a junior employee who is a member of the LGBTQ community and who attended the town hall told VICE World News.
Another employee said “people were crying in the meeting about how Jordan Peterson has affected their lives.” They said one co-worker discussed how Peterson had radicalized their father and another talked about how publishing the book will negatively affect their non-binary friend.
“The company since June has been doing all these anti-racist and allyship things and them publishing Peterson’s book completely goes against this. It just makes all of their previous efforts seem completely performative,” the employee added.
Trump Announces ‘Full Pardon’ of Michael Flynn
President Donald Trump announced that he will be granting a “Full Pardon” to Michael Flynn , his former national security adviser.
I see Canadians are fucking stupid as shit to it seems. Barely better then us or the UK. Cant believe one of those quotes is basically “I dont care about the content of his books (His character), I dont like him so fuck him!”
Yea I know. Canada was on that train with him before anyone else honestly. The moment he said he wouldn’t be legally compelled to call someone Zim, Xer, or whatever else the fuck, they tried to cancel the fuck outta him. His own colleagues tried to get him fired. A real mess.
We all know your blind loyalty to Trump and his perfection in your eyes and if Trump gave a shit about you he would appreciate it deeply…
Jets fans are team Jets and are not backing down but they are going 0-16 most likely. None of the loyalty changes reality they suck or are losing/lost… Been a Buccaneers fan for almost 30 years and they have been garbage 29 of them but I don’t back down or back away from my loyalty and because I am unhappy they are 7-4 right now and not 11-0 doesn’t mean I can go we had a lead vs the Saints/Bears and now should be 9-2 vs 7-4 because the final result meant nothing because they had a lead in those games and I don’t like the outcomes…
While your out of the shadows thoughts on OAN, Newsmax? Are they Korean pink lady equivalent of propaganda TV or real?
Seriously back to the wall??? We get it Trump it is 3,000 miles long and the bigliest ever and made of the most invisible of materials but its a real …
Also @starhammer thoughts on this wall along with the question about OAN/Newsmax?
