About
"Up Yours, Woke Moralists! We'll See Who Cancels Who" is a quote said by Canadian clinical psychologist Jordan Peterson in his video response to his temporary suspension from Twitter over a tweet in which he deadnamed transgender actor Elliot Page. In early July 2022, the viral video of Peterson saying the quote became an exploitable and inspired caption memes and edits.
Origin
On July 1st, 2022, Canadian clinical psychologist Jordan Peterson posted a 15-minute long YouTube[1] video titled, "Twitter Ban," which addressed his temporary suspension from Twitter over a tweet in which he deadnamed transgender actor Elliot Page. In one part of the video, Jordan challenges "woke moralists," delivering the line in an emotionless manner (14:17 mark, shown below).
And I'm not taking down that tweet or acknowledging that my tweet violated the Twitter rules. Up yours, woke moralists! We'll see who cancels who. Twitter's a rat hole in the final analysis and have probably contributed to that while trying to use, understand and master that horrible toxic platform.

The video gained over 4.8 million views, 10,900 retweets and 124,000 likes in one day (shown below).
