‘How could he?’: Former Jordan Peterson admirer reacts to his betrayal on ‘gay parenting’

(LifeSiteNews) — My guest on this Tuesday’s episode of The John-Henry Westen Show is a German pro-family activist who once had great admiration for Jordan Peterson. She even gave his 12 Rules for Life bestseller to her son as a Christmas gift one year.

But everything changed when Peterson interviewed “conservative” commentator and same-sex “married” Dave Rubin about “gay parenting.”

Gabriele Kuby, author of the new book The Abandoned Generation, lets us in on how “shocked” and “disappointed” she was to see this interview.

Kuby particularly admired Peterson’s heroism in speaking out against the tyrannical woke left on a variety of social issues, at great cost to his professional life as a psychology professor. The fact that Peterson was “clued in” on such issues made the Dave Rubin interview all the more disappointing for Kuby.

“I wrote in my open letter of eight pages: How can you do that? How can you let go what marriage is? How can you say marriage is the union of two people?” she says. “But as a union it has never been anything else in human history but the union of a man with a woman … to give life to children and forming the social structure for family and the raising of children. It has never been anything else.”

“How is that possible for a professor of psychology?”
