Jordan Peterson have been suspended from Twitter for hateful conduct:

https://nypost.com/2022/06/30/twitte...age-sin-tweet/

He called former Juno Star Ellen (Elliot) Page's physician a "criminal" and has in the past accused her of "grooming."

"Screenshots posted online show the tweet in question from the Canadian clinical psychologist’s account, which reads: “Remember when pride was a sin? And Ellen Page just had her breasts removed by a criminal physician.”

Page came out as transgender in 2020, announcing he would now be known as Elliot. Peterson, 60, is guilty of “deadnaming” the 25-year-old “Umbrella Academy” star, a source close to the Oscar-nominated actor told The Post."

I learned a new term after reading this: Deadnaming. It's apparently calling a person by their birth name.

So you can get in trouble for using the wrong pronoun.

He's in a downward spiral. He's bringing on all this drama to avoid handling his business. I can't even get work up any anger over his stupidity anymore because this is not going to end well for him.

No, he is not in a downward spiral. He is finding venues where his perspective and experience are valued. I say power to him. He is in the process of writing another book as well. All in all, he is probably the most intellectually honest individual I've become familiar with.

What business (of his) is he NOT handling?

Correct, this is his new business. He's successfully commercialized being a troll. More power to him imo. Trolling pays better than the clinical practice or his tenured position at U of Toronto did. Anyway, it's irrelevant as he quit Twitter back in May so it really makes absolutely no difference whether Twitter suspends his inactive account or not.

He's an addict in early recovery. He is exhibiting all the signs of someone either in a relapse or about to. I don't know how anyone can think that behavior is normal but maybe I am just tuned in because I had to recover myself. He was addicted to Benzo's...those are brutal and recovery from that takes years. Also, he's left with the reason he started them in the first place.

I saw him split and project into that Trudeau guy. The man is not well.

Ah....you are tuned it. Thank you.

Have you read his books? Seen any of his YouTube content? do you find no value in any of it?

Mentally and physically that's pretty safe to say. I mean, we're talking about someone who describes himself as a suicidal drug addict. In a lot of ways his new job as a professional troll likely helps in that regard. Keeping up his previous simultaneous careers as a clinician and professor had to be demanding. In comparison being an internet troll has to be much less demanding. He's good at it too, so again, more power to him in my book.
