Jordan Peterson

I don't know if this is true but it wouldn't surprise me one bit!

I have vague memories of Peterson himself saying this, or maybe saying he arrived earlier in the day.

Yep, I remember Peterson talking about this.  I haven't seen any independent confirmation, but I also haven't seen any news about protesters at his speeches in the last 4-5 years.

Here he is, explaining how he monetized the Social Justice Warrior backlash:    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o4KESFAITqg

That's kind of hilarious.

Having a speech at 7 AM in the morning simply makes people not want to protest?

Must not be much of protestors.

In the 60s, those protestors would camp out the night before in anticipation of doing whatever it was they were going to do or protest!

A lot of today's left-leaning and "progressive" individuals are ineffective at best and fascists at worst. 

Take, for example, the tale of Trigglypuff. 

A few years ago, several College Republican groups pushed their college officials to invite a rather motley mix of controversial speakers, such as Christina Hoff Summers and Milo Yiannopolous, as a counter-balance to the left-wing and the milquetoast speakers who normally came. 

In response to this, various "progressive" students made it a point to take seats in the audience, then at key moments stand up and start publicly screaming in order to disrupt the presentation. 

One individual was an obese woman with a pink top and a pastel mohawk. At the designated moment, she stood up and started screaming while flailing her arms. This caused her body fat to begin jiggling, which soon became the focal point of the video someone recorded of her. 

Her temperamental outburst, her bulk, and her wardrobe caused various individuals to compare her to the Pokemon critter known as Jigglypuff, and soon an unsympathetic internet dubbed her "Trigglypuff" as a way of mocking her.

I went to college with a girl who looked just like Trigglypuff. Complete with the total lack of self awareness, lousy personality and charm.
