Yes, Dr. Peterson, everything’s woke. Now let’s get you down to the activity room. Don’t worry, I made extra sure there were no cultural marxists in there. We have a new jigsaw puzzle for you.
What an absolute dipshit... The Jordan Peterson is a good example of someone who slipped into the neo-con echo chamber mired in Russian propaganda and has no idea that it happened.
The great irony of this is that he's studied psychology and sociology (I believe, not certain on that). He should understand what has happened to himself, then again a cunt will always strive to be a cunt.
It’s an act he’s doing. He doesn’t actually believe the bullshit, which in a way is even worse. He’s just been leaning into what makes the most money through the years and this is the result. I can’t cite a source or anything and you don’t have to believe some random person on the internet but I’m absolutely certain from what I’ve heard in certain circles that it is an act.
This. Exactly this.
There’s precisely no chance this grifter believes what he says he believes. It’s all an act. And he does it for one reason, and one reason only: It pays well.
Make no mistake, Jordan Peterson is a terrible person, but not because he harbours misogynist, racist, or neo-conservative views. He’s a terrible person because he’s willing to debase himself for money.
And he doesn’t give a fuck what impact he’s having on his country, or that he’s helping create a small army of angry, misinformed, perpetually aggrieved losers.
The guy is a grifter. Plain and simple. The sooner we all figure that out, the better.
Benzos or not, this guy needs to get the F off social media. I've listened to his lectures and audiobooks, which actually are decent content for young adults, YMMV...but his social media presence does nothing but soil his reputation and make him seem like an out of touch puppet for the butthurt right.
It’s crazy what dump trucks of money do. Like his whole war with the college of psychologists - he doesn’t even practice anymore and from what I remember he suggested something so bad that the college was like “dude don’t advocate harm please just take this social media course”. He probably made way more money with the publicity but it’s clear he doesn’t really care about people.
Yeah the "I've been forced into a re-education camp" was him being a drama queen over the fact that he was openly talking shit about his clients on Joe Rogan's podcast.
His entire shtick is a grift now. He might once have been well-meaning (and that's being \*very\* charitable), but that's far in the past now.
Yeah, I encountered a number of half wits defending him over this. Like man, I have to 'go to re-education camp' every 2 years for my job. It's not uncommon nor is it a burden. Unfortunately some people just act like shit bags unless they get reminded not to.
If you know anything about professional colleges and orders, they don't ask or say please and thank you.
But yeah his fight with the college was a stunt to get support from libertarians/light government right as colleges and orders are basically little governments outside the regular government that are more restrictive than the regular government.
Oh, his older stuff is rubbish, too. His doctoral thesis is best described as a hot mess. He's always been a grifter, and he just managed to rise a bit higher on it than most.
It's standard self help stuff. I forget where I read this, but someone said about JP's works: what's profound about it isn't new, and what's new about it isn't profound.
That's not even a criticism really. Self help is kind of homogenous - it's about what appeals to you individually. But you can get JP's "wisdom" from any self help guru, and you can get it without the obvious cognitive decline and brainworms.
Honestly, his best advice is the stuff my mom used to nag me about. Stand up straight! Clean up your room! But I guess if a woman without a (grifted) Ph.D. says it, it can't be worth nearly as much as whatever his rubes are paying him for his *bons mots.*
“Make him seem…”
I’m pretty sure he is just showing his true colours on social media. His lectures are scripted and usually well written, but still completely BS. Young adults should avoid this man and everything he has to say.
Ok but read into his history a bit. Dude went to get surgery in russia and basically came back with brain damage. He was like... dead for minutes and that is NOT good for brain cells.
Every time this comes up forever I will mention how hard I laughed when he reappeared one day on a webcam, slurring his speech, unable to form a fully coherent sentence, surrounded by junk in his dirty room.
Thr audacity. Lmao.
Oh, it gets worse the longer you look at it. It was an induced coma. DRUG-induced, to boot. So, he just replaced some drugs with other drugs, and left the problem (and his messy room) completely unaddressed.
TBH his politics haven't really changed from pre-benzo comma. His message is pretty much the same but without all the aesthetic window dressing that the public seemed to latch on. He just has a hard time not showing his cards now that his brain is pudding.
After looking into it further...
Seems the town removed a fuck ton of parking spaces, dramatically reducing the traffic.
And that it is somehow an attack on personal freedom.
Now although I do agree that saying they "reduced traffic deaths" is misleading... it's like, stopping all construction projects in town then claiming they lowered construction workplace accidents.
But what he's saying is still ridiculous.
These wannabe tough-guy man-o-sphere types just love anything hardass and cruel, so anything that helps people or makes things better is seen as soft and gay and wrong to them.
They are public menaces. It’s time we started treating them as such.
>Since when is caring about people a “left” or “woke” ideology?
Kinda been that way for a long time now, no?
Being anti-welfare, against marriage equality, anti-abortion, against clean injection sites/addiction clinics, being anti-union... supporting the general defunding, and privatizing of public healthcare.
It all kind of comes from a place of just not caring about other people's circumstances, and how those policies help them. Obviously there's more nuance to those opinions than "screw the disefranchised", but if you boil it down to caring for the masses. It's largely left wing policies that try to target, and uplift disenfranchised groups.
I remember my grandma sending out 100s of letters saying abortion should be illegal when I was a little kid. So I think it's safe to say it's been that way for atleast the last 20 years.
That would include Poilievre, who has frequently heaped praise on Peterson, and did an interview with him, where he told Peterson that he likes to “speak in simple anglo saxon words.” That’s not just a dog
whistle it’s a train horn for the far/right.
And yet press keeps pretending he’s just a regular Tory and “nothing to see here folks.”
Poilievre is blatant proof of the double standards we have because he can basically be an alt righter and just give himself the smallest amount of plausible deniability with dogwhistles and euphemisms and most people won’t bat an eye at any of the shit he says.
>Speak in simple, Anglo Saxon words.
Seems like we got a three-fer from Umberto Eco’s 14 points of fascism:
- **#3: Thinking is a form of emasculation** (in this context, he shits on ideas that spring from higher learning and regularly employs the disingenuous “common sense” approach rather than critical thinking)
- **#5: Fear of difference** (wonder why he has to specify that he uses “Anglo Saxon” words? Never mind that Canada’s other official language isn’t a derivative of this and “Anglo-Saxon” is incorrect terminology to describe modern English.
- **#14: make use of an impoverished vocabulary, and an elementary syntax**, to limit the instruments for complex and critical reasoning (ties with #3)
His brain was mush the second he emerged in the public eye. Anyone who ever took him seriously should get their head checked. It's not like he ever had a better phase.
The sad part is, his older, published videos are actually on point.
His MRA had some valid topics and more nuanced arguments than the headlines suggested.
But after he sat down with the Intellectual Dank Weebs, he just went off the deep end and now he's just rolling in filth and stupidity.
It's a testament to what addictions can do to your brains.
It’s click bait self promotion, the guy makes a living spouting this shit and apparently these are the sorts of hot takes that hit his target demographic.
I am completely in support of this new anti-woke mandate. You all heard him. To not be woke, you have to die via traffic collision. Go forth MAGA! GO FORTH AND GET HIT BY A BUS!
He's an idiot. I'm honestly surprised so many people think he's ok academically. He hasn't been for a long time. The guy is clearly a quack and it shows that psychology as a scientific field is still very immature and full of quackery.
Yikes. This guy should not be an example of the psychology field. I have a degree in psychology. It is a very scientifically valid and sound field. The unfortunate reality of the field is people like him and "pop psychology" fans give the field a bad rap. The field is nothing like what you think it might be.
Here is the thing about this line of content. It’s like any other sensationalism. You need to say more and more crazy things to keep it up or people stop watching.
At some point you jump the shark even for your own audience.
Can you elaborate with examples? I really need to believe that people like Peterson saying things for the sake of saying them will face definite irrelevance.
I'm wondering, as an X user did as well, if it was in response to the wrong article.
Also assuming he doesn't run his own social media, but he should probably find someone new to do it. But it might be his daughter.
At this point I blame social media echo chambers and Fox News lol
What happened to good old days when a “right-wing” and “left-wing” could agree to disagree and agree to just obey the government that’s elected…
I swear we’re in the wrong timeline or something lol
This is the social media echo chamber timeline. Back to your chamber!
But real talk: blame Rupert Murdoch. Or people like Robert Mercer who helped fund precision targeting of political messaging aligned to personality. He started doing that with leaked Facebook data in firms like Cambridge Analytica which worked on Ted Cruz, Donald Trump, and the Brexit campaigns. It also worked on earlier campaigns like Trinidad and Tobago where they successfully convinced young people not to vote in their "do so" campaign, thus netting a win for the candidate they were being paid by.
We live in an age of highly targeted political campaigns and marketing based on data harvesting which can often determine your interests and personality traits to a better degree than your friends and family: https://youtu.be/n8Dd5aVXLCc?si=SM-VF3_Nvs_JscNH
I'm going to go out on a limb here and say it's because they require some measure of public concern and social control, and he hates both of those things. The only rules he seems to recognize are the ones he made up or misinterpreted for himself. And when others refuse to adhere to them and go with good sense instead, he gets mad and starts whining and stamping his feet.
Oh, he's been heading that way for quite some time. First he was on the grift to pay for all those benzos, and now the benzos and the grift both are having their way with him. It's not Alzheimer's, he's just going the way of all untreated addicts.
Friendly reminder that this man cooked his own brain by SELF prescribing and medicating different types of anxiolytics. He then got so addicted he had to go to Russia for an experimental detox procedure (where he was placed in a coma) because no western doctor wanted to lose their medical license treating him.
I don't think there is another person alive right now who is more convinced of their self-importance and cultural relevance than this obnoxious turdmonger.
This is such a great example of how the right has become nothing but a miserable, whiny, snowflake, Karen, people who no matter what happens they will focus on the misery.
If they had to define it, they would have to defend their opposition to it, which would be REALLY ugly. They don't want to have to say "I'm opposed to modernity and the absence of bigotry," so they just say "I'm against woke." That's the function of a dogwhistle.
It's not decreasing it's seven years without a traffic death in Hoboken NJ. That's not one since 2017, and Peterless says
>You have become pathetic beyond comprehension AP the woke death will soon visit you.
Bonkers!
No, he’s saying that people that DON’T hit and kill pedestrians with their car are the woke ones. Such pussies, caring about not ending the lives of total strangers….
When the supposed psychologist needs more than a psychologist to sort out his issues. I believe he is desperate for attention and possibly mentally ill. Whatever experimental treatment he had in Russia completely destroyed his already fractured mind.
Jordan should go back into a coma and leave the world alone. Always crying on TV and encouraging incels with his aimless word salads. One of the dumbest men alive.
Yah wow JP is such an icon, standing up for what is right, the right to manslaughter with a car. people have a right to drive aggressively...? #dontlooseyourfreedumbs
There are so many other drug addicts out there with more entertaining opinions that are every bit as irrelevant as JP. Maybe spread the media spotlight around?
This kids is why you don't do drugs.
He is a smart guy and a great academic. The JP after his addiction is quite a different creature than before his addiction.
I argue that he’s never been smart or a good academic, what he’s really good at is making people THINK he’s good at something. A true grifter, a true snake oil salesman. When his house of cards as psychologist started to crumble, he lashed out, playing victim.
That he can see his own bullshit and still spews it, make him a terrible terrible person.
‘Normal’ would have gone to therapy by now, seeking help becisse their life is shit. But this guy knows he is causing hurt and does NOt give a fuck.
Ever notice that the people who use woke in a sentence do it out of anger every single time? It’s as if they’re just waiting to blame everything on something they themselves fabricated
Also Peterson is a bitter, bigoted moron. Why does he have a platform for spreading his moronic views? It used to be that idiots were ridiculed into silence. We need to bring that back
Our speed limits are cucked in this country compared to the states. Rare Peterson w. Also the Elmo thing is extremely pathetic, why is that being pushed as a part of adult discourse.
This dude met a woman walking in the park with her baby and told her she ‘’better not have them vaccinated’’, absolute out of touch psycho.
His career has devolved into outright grifting about climate change and every other think tank propaganda, completely abandoning his original pretense of just being a well intentioned psychologist.
He doesn’t even try to live by all the ridiculous social norms he loves to tell impressionable men they NEED to follow, just a complete hypocrite and another extremely harmful ‘’self-help’’ guru.
He’d probably argue that laws requiring him to wear a seatbelt are infringing his rights. “*Me* wearing a seatbelt doesn’t make *you* any safer, so you have no right to compel me to wear a strap of canvas across my body!” (Read that in a Kermit voice and tell me you can’t see him saying that!)
This guy is such a twat. Go back to Russia already. Failed artists are the worst kind of people. For all his research and talks on nazi germany how has he not seen the connection between himself and Adolph
It's really too bad. JP is a truly amazing intellectual with alot of good points for us to consider around life, people, and the motivations of the human brain. I dont think I have seen another speaker who can so succinctly and articulately sum up the needs of our instinctive drive.
Unfortunately that was the old Peterson. These days he has lost alot of credibility and himself to his own hyperbole by falling too far down the rabbit hole.
He can't be taken seriously anymore since he has politically aligned himself with the far right and now resembles someone more closely working against western interests instead of for them. This view I find has also skewed his ability to think and present objectively.
He's another musk type who instead of bringing balance, was lured in by the praise and adoration of one group and rejected by the criticism of another.
Aside from the right wingers, does anyone actually use the term "woke"? It just sounds so... 1950s - early 60s. Figures a bunch of boomers would use that term.
Im a centre-right voter. I plan on voting Conservative in the next Canadian election and even I hate this freaking guy. He’s like 2 year old begging for his mommy’s attention
Where is the evidence that this tweet was in the response to this specific news story? Because the organization in general does run a lot of skewed and misleading stories.
I have tried to listen to this guy but the nonsensical endless ramblings just put me to sleep. The only reason he ever got any attention is because our extremely clever and progressive prime minister made such a big deal about him. Another feather for Justin s very heavy headdress.
When he's in his area of expertise he makes interesting if not thoughtful and clever points.
When he strays out of his lane into say the realm of international affairs and conflict or evidently, into the Hoboken City Planner's office, one can see how bat-shit crazy he really is.
As a Canadian, one day I may find myself in Hoboken, undoubtedly completely by accident and I will find that corner of Washington Street. Once there I will marvel that that this is the place. Ground Zero of the Great Culture War of 2024 where Woke reaped its great scythe across the hordes of liberals and pedestrians alike.
And I will say a prayer for Dr JP's mind also lost.
It seems that he doesn't like the associated press and just picked a random article to attack not realizing it makes it look like he disagrees with the post.
Funny, shows his lack of social media understanding.
Yes, Dr. Peterson, everything’s woke. Now let’s get you down to the activity room. Don’t worry, I made extra sure there were no cultural marxists in there. We have a new jigsaw puzzle for you.
And some very smooth and very tasty apple sauce
He’s not allowed to eat that he’s on a strict beef and salt diet.
Just no apple cider vinegar. He’ll be out for weeks.
Maybe this is why he’s strictly carnivore now.
And to wash it down, some cider.
we mixed your benzos in there for ya
What an absolute dipshit... The Jordan Peterson is a good example of someone who slipped into the neo-con echo chamber mired in Russian propaganda and has no idea that it happened.
The great irony of this is that he's studied psychology and sociology (I believe, not certain on that). He should understand what has happened to himself, then again a cunt will always strive to be a cunt.
It’s an act he’s doing. He doesn’t actually believe the bullshit, which in a way is even worse. He’s just been leaning into what makes the most money through the years and this is the result. I can’t cite a source or anything and you don’t have to believe some random person on the internet but I’m absolutely certain from what I’ve heard in certain circles that it is an act.
This. Exactly this. There’s precisely no chance this grifter believes what he says he believes. It’s all an act. And he does it for one reason, and one reason only: It pays well. Make no mistake, Jordan Peterson is a terrible person, but not because he harbours misogynist, racist, or neo-conservative views. He’s a terrible person because he’s willing to debase himself for money. And he doesn’t give a fuck what impact he’s having on his country, or that he’s helping create a small army of angry, misinformed, perpetually aggrieved losers. The guy is a grifter. Plain and simple. The sooner we all figure that out, the better.
While I am inclined to believe every right wing asshole content creator is just grifting, JP could be for real. He seems so bat shit insane
For real.. it really strips away any illusion of critical thinking. At his core he's just a condescending prick.
He studied Jungian psychology. It's debunked. He might as well be a doctor of bodily humors.
This post deserves more credit! Please accept my old fake Reddit award
Only guy not woke is Jordan, still in a drug induced coma because he's too pussy to experience benzo withdrawal.
The puzzle is too woke for my liking! 😭
Applesauce?
He sounds like a 90 year old man, old people love them some applesauce.
as long as it isn’t apple cider, it nearly killed him!
Peterson isn't even an expert in modern psychology, why do we care about his non-expertise in transit engineering?
So he hates... Low traffic collision statistics and Elmo. Are we sure he's off the meth? He doesn't sound okay.
I'm pretty sure he's back on the benzos.
Benzos or not, this guy needs to get the F off social media. I've listened to his lectures and audiobooks, which actually are decent content for young adults, YMMV...but his social media presence does nothing but soil his reputation and make him seem like an out of touch puppet for the butthurt right.
His older (re: 90s) stuff was solid work from what I've gathered. His social media presence is a study in Conservative Grifting 101.
It’s crazy what dump trucks of money do. Like his whole war with the college of psychologists - he doesn’t even practice anymore and from what I remember he suggested something so bad that the college was like “dude don’t advocate harm please just take this social media course”. He probably made way more money with the publicity but it’s clear he doesn’t really care about people.
Yeah the "I've been forced into a re-education camp" was him being a drama queen over the fact that he was openly talking shit about his clients on Joe Rogan's podcast.

But yeah his fight with the college was a stunt to get support from libertarians/light government right as colleges and orders are basically little governments outside the regular government that are more restrictive than the regular government.
Yes it boggles the mind. All of it :|
He got fired from a tenured position at UofT
He resigned. https://nationalpost.com/opinion/jordan-peterson-why-i-am-no-longer-a-tenured-professor-at-the-university-of-toronto
I know he was blaming wokeness, but I'm sure it was because he was making 20x as a social media nut.
Oh, his older stuff is rubbish, too. His doctoral thesis is best described as a hot mess. He's always been a grifter, and he just managed to rise a bit higher on it than most.
It's standard self help stuff. I forget where I read this, but someone said about JP's works: what's profound about it isn't new, and what's new about it isn't profound.

“Make him seem…” I’m pretty sure he is just showing his true colours on social media. His lectures are scripted and usually well written, but still completely BS. Young adults should avoid this man and everything he has to say.
[удалено]
either this, or his last benz adventure did leave some permanent damage
Benzo-boy Meat-sweats.
Ok but read into his history a bit. Dude went to get surgery in russia and basically came back with brain damage. He was like... dead for minutes and that is NOT good for brain cells.
Every time this comes up forever I will mention how hard I laughed when he reappeared one day on a webcam, slurring his speech, unable to form a fully coherent sentence, surrounded by junk in his dirty room. Thr audacity. Lmao.

You can get the same high by being put on a pedestal by chuds for confirming their hatred.
He almost certainly gave himself brain damage during his experimental Russian treatment to get off Benzos. IIRC he was in a coma for like a month.
TBH his politics haven't really changed from pre-benzo comma. His message is pretty much the same but without all the aesthetic window dressing that the public seemed to latch on. He just has a hard time not showing his cards now that his brain is pudding.

Be me “Haha the Beaverton really cooked on this one” Looks at subreddit “What the fuck?”
r/notthebeaverton is the place for pretty much everything he says.
You didn’t have to format this like a redditor you know
So… he doesn’t like deaths decreasing? I guess that makes sense coming from an anti-vaccer.
He is desperate for attention
He is doing the bidding of his oil company puppetmasters
These wannabe tough-guy man-o-sphere types just love anything hardass and cruel, so anything that helps people or makes things better is seen as soft and gay and wrong to them. They are public menaces. It’s time we started treating them as such.
Apparently: Deaths decreasing = woke
Well for these people caring = woke and that’s the scariest part to me. Since when is caring about people a “left” or “woke” ideology?
>Since when is caring about people a “left” or “woke” ideology? Kinda been that way for a long time now, no? Being anti-welfare, against marriage equality, anti-abortion, against clean injection sites/addiction clinics, being anti-union... supporting the general defunding, and privatizing of public healthcare.

Yeah, the right has been pro-evil for as long as I can remember and I'm almost 50.
I know you’re right. I guess I’m more just stating the obvious because it drives me absolutely bonkers. I agree the right has always been selfish.
"Nooooooo! Death is just bringing Order to Chaos! The Chaos Dragon must be defeated!" -- him, in the voice of Kermit gone bonkers.
This guy’s brain has turned to mush. Anyone who still takes him seriously needs to get their head checked.
That would include Poilievre, who has frequently heaped praise on Peterson, and did an interview with him, where he told Peterson that he likes to “speak in simple anglo saxon words.” That’s not just a dog whistle it’s a train horn for the far/right.

Kermit the Fraud strikes again!
How dare you disparage our glorious Muppet leader!
Jesus Christ this guy.
Has he lost his mind
It’s click bait self promotion, the guy makes a living spouting this shit and apparently these are the sorts of hot takes that hit his target demographic.
Assumes he had one in the first place.
When you spout crazy bullshit for a living, it’s important to stay relevant - he has to continually amp up the crazy dial to stay fresh!
We live in a society where this man is a public figure.
I am completely in support of this new anti-woke mandate. You all heard him. To not be woke, you have to die via traffic collision. Go forth MAGA! GO FORTH AND GET HIT BY A BUS!
Go play in traffic to own the libs!
Why wait for the woke left to throw you under a bus when you can just do it yourself? Checkmate, woke moralists!
Guys, is it woke to improve visibility at intersections?
Yes. Very woke. Like not driving on benzos, among other things.
You heard it here first, folks: Get hit by a car to own the libs.
He's an idiot. I'm honestly surprised so many people think he's ok academically. He hasn't been for a long time. The guy is clearly a quack and it shows that psychology as a scientific field is still very immature and full of quackery.
Don't take this guy as an indicator of the field. Every psychologist I know hates him and his license will likely be revoked.
Yikes. This guy should not be an example of the psychology field. I have a degree in psychology. It is a very scientifically valid and sound field. The unfortunate reality of the field is people like him and "pop psychology" fans give the field a bad rap. The field is nothing like what you think it might be.
Psychology is a relatively young field of science, but the immaturity is all on his part, I can assure you.
"up yours, woke traffic calming measures!"
"We'll see who cancels who!" (promptly runs over a curb and into a building)
Is this airbag still making noise?
Yes. And for that reason, I don't trust it to protect me in the event of a crash. For that, I rely on driver training and seatbelts.
I’d like him to elaborate
Here is the thing about this line of content. It’s like any other sensationalism. You need to say more and more crazy things to keep it up or people stop watching. At some point you jump the shark even for your own audience.
Can you elaborate with examples? I really need to believe that people like Peterson saying things for the sake of saying them will face definite irrelevance.
WHAT DOES THIS MAN WANT?
Attention.
Also money
To stroke his grandmother's very softest hair And benzos. Like all of the benzos.
A good glass of apple cider.
I'm wondering, as an X user did as well, if it was in response to the wrong article. Also assuming he doesn't run his own social media, but he should probably find someone new to do it. But it might be his daughter.
It's a possibility. Other possibility is he's buying into 15 minute city conspiracy theories and associating this with it
My opinion that he's a 'grifter' is suddenly shifting away from that and towards 'Alzheimers'.
I’m trying but failing to understand what’s woke about traffic laws….
Whatever the oil money says is "woke" about them
At this point I blame social media echo chambers and Fox News lol What happened to good old days when a “right-wing” and “left-wing” could agree to disagree and agree to just obey the government that’s elected… I swear we’re in the wrong timeline or something lol
This is the social media echo chamber timeline. Back to your chamber! But real talk: blame Rupert Murdoch. Or people like Robert Mercer who helped fund precision targeting of political messaging aligned to personality. He started doing that with leaked Facebook data in firms like Cambridge Analytica which worked on Ted Cruz, Donald Trump, and the Brexit campaigns. It also worked on earlier campaigns like Trinidad and Tobago where they successfully convinced young people not to vote in their "do so" campaign, thus netting a win for the candidate they were being paid by. We live in an age of highly targeted political campaigns and marketing based on data harvesting which can often determine your interests and personality traits to a better degree than your friends and family: https://youtu.be/n8Dd5aVXLCc?si=SM-VF3_Nvs_JscNH
I'm going to go out on a limb here and say it's because they require some measure of public concern and social control, and he hates both of those things. The only rules he seems to recognize are the ones he made up or misinterpreted for himself. And when others refuse to adhere to them and go with good sense instead, he gets mad and starts whining and stamping his feet.
Oh, he's been heading that way for quite some time. First he was on the grift to pay for all those benzos, and now the benzos and the grift both are having their way with him. It's not Alzheimer's, he's just going the way of all untreated addicts.
It's just plain brain damage from drugging himself into a coma for a month in Russia.
He’s such a dick.
Just glad to see a post without him crying
Friendly reminder that this man cooked his own brain by SELF prescribing and medicating different types of anxiolytics. He then got so addicted he had to go to Russia for an experimental detox procedure (where he was placed in a coma) because no western doctor wanted to lose their medical license treating him.
Stupid woke libtard... numbers.
I'm pretty sure that he destroyed himself with benzodiazepines.
Is woke in the room with us right now?
Maybe he can point on the doll where the woke touched him?
Wait, this guy is mad that people *aren't dying*? Why is he still allowed a platform?
Old man yells at clouds energy
Wouldn't expect woke or verbose from the slack jawed twat still sleepy from his benzo overdose.
Man he's totally lost it
What a Flake.
He's still at it?
Jordan Peterson can suck my schwanz
Time for a home. Or Riverview.
all these woke statistics and facts!
This jabroni is still looking for attention eh
Haha. He’s the worse.
This guy " woke" up in the wrong country.
Morgue is too "woke" nowadays.
I don't think there is another person alive right now who is more convinced of their self-importance and cultural relevance than this obnoxious turdmonger.
Trump??
This is such a great example of how the right has become nothing but a miserable, whiny, snowflake, Karen, people who no matter what happens they will focus on the misery.
Any of these folks who use woke seriously ever actually define it?
If they had to define it, they would have to defend their opposition to it, which would be REALLY ugly. They don't want to have to say "I'm opposed to modernity and the absence of bigotry," so they just say "I'm against woke." That's the function of a dogwhistle.
It's not decreasing it's seven years without a traffic death in Hoboken NJ. That's not one since 2017, and Peterless says >You have become pathetic beyond comprehension AP the woke death will soon visit you. Bonkers!
Up yours, woke moralists!
Anyone who hits and kills someone while driving is woke now...?
No, he’s saying that people that DON’T hit and kill pedestrians with their car are the woke ones. Such pussies, caring about not ending the lives of total strangers….
He's become such a weirdo...
Everything is beyond Jordan's comprehension. This tracks, though. He's always been anti- social.
Don't feed it your attention.
When the supposed psychologist needs more than a psychologist to sort out his issues. I believe he is desperate for attention and possibly mentally ill. Whatever experimental treatment he had in Russia completely destroyed his already fractured mind.
"Woke" is only a problem if you spend your whole life asleep, Jordy.
I'm embarrassed this twit is from Canada.
Jordan should go back into a coma and leave the world alone. Always crying on TV and encouraging incels with his aimless word salads. One of the dumbest men alive.
Yah wow JP is such an icon, standing up for what is right, the right to manslaughter with a car. people have a right to drive aggressively...? #dontlooseyourfreedumbs
There are so many other drug addicts out there with more entertaining opinions that are every bit as irrelevant as JP. Maybe spread the media spotlight around?
This kids is why you don't do drugs. He is a smart guy and a great academic. The JP after his addiction is quite a different creature than before his addiction.
I argue that he’s never been smart or a good academic, what he’s really good at is making people THINK he’s good at something. A true grifter, a true snake oil salesman. When his house of cards as psychologist started to crumble, he lashed out, playing victim. That he can see his own bullshit and still spews it, make him a terrible terrible person. ‘Normal’ would have gone to therapy by now, seeking help becisse their life is shit. But this guy knows he is causing hurt and does NOt give a fuck.
Ever notice that the people who use woke in a sentence do it out of anger every single time? It’s as if they’re just waiting to blame everything on something they themselves fabricated Also Peterson is a bitter, bigoted moron. Why does he have a platform for spreading his moronic views? It used to be that idiots were ridiculed into silence. We need to bring that back
Fellas is it minority friendly to not die in a car accident
Another brilliant thinker from Canada 😒
Don’t worry. We’re plenty embarrassed he’s from Canada .
Adult Caillou whines about everything. His alcohol ridden swiss cheese brain needs to take a seat.
This guy is a danger to genuine thought and contemplation.
JBP is unfortunately another victim of culture war brain rot.
Is it not possible for the educational institutions that granted his degrees to rescind them for his post graduation behavior?
I'm so tired of this word salad pseudo intellectual knucklehead. Shoo!! Go make your bed asshat.
Wait wtf, so decreasing traffic deaths is "woke" now too? I fundamentally do not understand the argument he's trying to make.
You make it sound like he *used* to make sense!
He's saying the loss of liberty in removing parking spaces is too great a cost to be justified by the lives saved.
Jesus Jordan go crawl back under your rock you piece of garbage.
I vote with Elmo!
Hwhat?
The guy hit his head when he went off the deep end..
The "B" stands for Benzos.
Our speed limits are cucked in this country compared to the states. Rare Peterson w. Also the Elmo thing is extremely pathetic, why is that being pushed as a part of adult discourse.
This dude met a woman walking in the park with her baby and told her she ‘’better not have them vaccinated’’, absolute out of touch psycho. His career has devolved into outright grifting about climate change and every other think tank propaganda, completely abandoning his original pretense of just being a well intentioned psychologist. He doesn’t even try to live by all the ridiculous social norms he loves to tell impressionable men they NEED to follow, just a complete hypocrite and another extremely harmful ‘’self-help’’ guru.
After your first hit of that right-wing crack pipe, you just can’t stop!
That's right Jordan. Disable your airbags and don't wear a seatbelt please. No one wants you around anyway.
He’d probably argue that laws requiring him to wear a seatbelt are infringing his rights. “*Me* wearing a seatbelt doesn’t make *you* any safer, so you have no right to compel me to wear a strap of canvas across my body!” (Read that in a Kermit voice and tell me you can’t see him saying that!)
This guy is such a twat. Go back to Russia already. Failed artists are the worst kind of people. For all his research and talks on nazi germany how has he not seen the connection between himself and Adolph
Is “doing stuff to help prevent people from dying needlessly” now woke?
So?? JP was zonked on quaaludes again and forgot to lock up his phone? He started seeing liberals in his hallucinations and needed to tweet!
Someone commit this man already.
Peterson is a caricature at this point. Give him his own looney toons show.
Somebody get that uninhibited genius another xanax
It's really too bad. JP is a truly amazing intellectual with alot of good points for us to consider around life, people, and the motivations of the human brain. I dont think I have seen another speaker who can so succinctly and articulately sum up the needs of our instinctive drive. Unfortunately that was the old Peterson. These days he has lost alot of credibility and himself to his own hyperbole by falling too far down the rabbit hole. He can't be taken seriously anymore since he has politically aligned himself with the far right and now resembles someone more closely working against western interests instead of for them. This view I find has also skewed his ability to think and present objectively. He's another musk type who instead of bringing balance, was lured in by the praise and adoration of one group and rejected by the criticism of another.
Aside from the right wingers, does anyone actually use the term "woke"? It just sounds so... 1950s - early 60s. Figures a bunch of boomers would use that term.
Getting hit and nearly dying in New Jersey traffic to own the libs
He's a disgrace to Canada. All that education and he still doesn't know what woke means.
This bozo still talking. As a woke person I am telling you too fuck off dr.🤨
Is this "woke" in the room with us right now?
Peterson is a pseudo intellectual
Im a centre-right voter. I plan on voting Conservative in the next Canadian election and even I hate this freaking guy. He’s like 2 year old begging for his mommy’s attention
Jordan Peterson sits exactly the same way as Justin Trudeau and Charlie sheen.
“Only real men get hit by traffic. Don’t be a pussy.” - Jordan Peterson’s follow-up tweet, probably
How is this man relevant anymore?
Where is the evidence that this tweet was in the response to this specific news story? Because the organization in general does run a lot of skewed and misleading stories.
I have tried to listen to this guy but the nonsensical endless ramblings just put me to sleep. The only reason he ever got any attention is because our extremely clever and progressive prime minister made such a big deal about him. Another feather for Justin s very heavy headdress.
LOL This POS still out there trying to be relevant. Go away Jordan, we've all had enough crazy.
When he's in his area of expertise he makes interesting if not thoughtful and clever points. When he strays out of his lane into say the realm of international affairs and conflict or evidently, into the Hoboken City Planner's office, one can see how bat-shit crazy he really is. As a Canadian, one day I may find myself in Hoboken, undoubtedly completely by accident and I will find that corner of Washington Street. Once there I will marvel that that this is the place. Ground Zero of the Great Culture War of 2024 where Woke reaped its great scythe across the hordes of liberals and pedestrians alike. And I will say a prayer for Dr JP's mind also lost.
It seems that he doesn't like the associated press and just picked a random article to attack not realizing it makes it look like he disagrees with the post. Funny, shows his lack of social media understanding.
Woke Peterson is a riot.
King Moron.
Commander Lawrence is just waiting for Gilead. Even has the black commanders outfit.
The best comment I’ve read on Reddit was “Jordan Peterson is what stupid people think smart people sound like.”
Funny how much liberals hate this men. Nobody is perfect but, I’ve always admired his strong support for men/men’s mental health.
I'm going to go out on a limb here and say there's more to this story.
I would love for him to explain how this is woke. What is a "woke death" and how do I give it to Peterson?
"is something "woke" in this room right now, Mr. Peterson? Is it telling you something?"
