I always start with the caveat that even when I agree with Peterson, I do not share the core of his message and fundamental views. That said, here's another one I can only applaud.
He says at one point that liberals and conservatives have been asleep at the wheel of the education system for 60 years.
I can attest that 30 years ago when I was about to go to uni in Catalonia, it was already well known and a recurrent joke that only the most useless, lunatic, radical communist potheads and drug addicts among us picked the Faculty of Teacher's Education. Mostly, that was one of the very few faculties they were able to enroll on at all with their terrible marks.
Once on campus, we kept laughing at them and joking about how while we were in the classroom, you could see them having their "classes" literally on a patch of grass singing songs and reading Marxist pamphlets.
In the meantime, they kept churning our teacher's diplomas and sending them to public and private schools alike...
And here we are now, when they have become one of the most powerful gangs and effectively run the school system autonomously from government, pushing their ideological drivel, and their incompetence, on everybody's children.
I think it's almost impossible to eradicate them from the public system, and the only way to mitigate the harm is to allow real parental choice. And even that is fought with a fury unlike any other and will be an uphill battle.
