Professor Jordan B. Peterson and Bill Maher discuss the poison of political correctness and the necessary fight for free speech. Language warning.

So, if you over coddle people, if you protect them from everything that’s sharp, you make them dull and stupid and narcissistic, and it’s a really bad idea.
