Yeah, I'm sure the CBC started basically no platforming Peterson two years ago because they knew he would adopt a flakey diet in 2018. Had nothing at all to do with his stance towards the politics they champion.

The identarian left's obsession with Peterson is juvenile. If they want to get their message across, then cultivate long-form podcasts, Youtube channels, and forums for people to present their ideas. Playing the social media gotcha game doesn't do anything to lend weight and credibility to those playing the game. But I suppose some people don't know any other way to engage with issues and politics besides tribal coup-counting.

Someone posts Peterson saying quite ridiculous things and immediately its a 'hit piece' and 'gotcha journalism'.
Who here thinks he's a genius? Peterson is astute and incisive about some stuff and flakey and muddled about other stuff. Only simple-minded partisans divide the world into our people and their people, and passionately defend everything our people do and attack everything their people do.
