He was always overly sensitive but it appears he has completely lost his capability to cope with any curveball life throws at him.

I am not a psychologist, but it is so damn clear that if you have troubles coping with external issues, being super present on twitter is a bad move. Go touch a grass is damn good piece of advise cause for a modern western people the main source of distress are things happening online. Log off from social media, stop reading each damn comment below your YT, take a 2 week trip to mountains, immense yourself into research (you are a scientist ffs) or go knit a pair of socks. Do anything but being terminally online. If I, a random person understand that, I do not get how a renown psychologist fails to.

Also, inadvertently I compare him to JKR, who also faces a lot of tards in twitter but handles it like a terf queen she is. The difference between their approach (and probably state of their mental health) is striking.
 
I notice no one here has mentioned Peterson Academy yet.

I so badly miss 2018-era "voice of reason" JBP. 💔 If only he'd taken his 15 minutes and gone back to being a university instructor, as opposed to doing... whatever this is.

Sound advice, but harder to effectively implement in his case. When he became famous and earned the ire of activists, he essentially ended his academic career. No major university in the English speaking world will ever let him teach at their institutions, he is too controversial at this point. He also left private practice over a decade ago and now has a legal battle ahead of him if he wants to keep his professional privileges. His only way forward now is that of a public figure doing public engagements, which necessitates a robust social media presence.

In the spaces JP now has to navigate, who your friends are and who your enemies are can rapidly change and everything you thought you knew can become obsolete in a matter of hours. I think this is why he goes on and on about “anonymous demons” and “trolls” needing to be run off, because he doesn’t understand any of the variables in play and can’t adapt to situations fast enough before making blunders. I don’t think he has any clear idea of who his audiences were and why people are turning on him.

So I don’t think he spends too much time on social media that it has become unhealthy, it is the fact that the amount of time he needs to spend on social media is beyond his personal abilities to deal with.

What does he teach in his academy? How to make your bed every morning? How to fight anonymous demon trolls? The dangers of drinking apple cider?

I generally agree with your post but I don’t believe he needs a robust social media presence, especially if the shit he posts runs counter to the image he wants to portray himself as. In his case, less is more, and maybe he even needs a social media handler. I’m sure Lil Benji could assign someone at The Daily Wire to make one or two tweets a day in Jordan’s name.

By their very definition, lolcows don't learn. Ever.

I actually have a good opinion about Jordan Petersen, but I have to agree, antidepressants are crap. I knew a person IRL whose life was ruined by them. There is literally no evidence that depression is caused by chemical imbalances in the brain which are fixed by antidepressants, this was fabricated in plain sight by pharmaceutical companies to sell more drugs, which in turn achieve nothing outside the placebo effect. Depression is actually caused by having a life that sucks.

Just stay away from the cider and start eating only meat. The experts know best how to be happy.
 
I still am not convinced that Jordan Peterson is some secret agent for Mossad, but I think his new boss Ben Shapiro is really milking him for every drop of propoganda value he is worth. All of his new podcast guests are very clearly shills for some stupid agenda. Occasionally he has interesting people on but lately they're all just anti china shills, anti iran shills, pro zionist shills... it all culminated with Netanyahu but I wasn't aware just how many shills he has had on his show lately. Just go look on youtube for yourself if you don't believe me. I don't know whether to feel bad for him or not because on one hand he strikes me as mostly honest (very much to his detriment, as we can see with his twitter meltdown) but on the other hand I think about that time someone asked him about the JQ and he said "I can't do it". Oh well, not worth the brain power to think about it too much I suppose.

Ben Shapiro is sociopathic enough to exploit a vulnerable and mentally confused addict for his own means. But well... he's just copying Mikhalia's homework.

It looks like his usual bread and butter: Nietzsche, Jung, the Bible. Not that there's anything wrong with that, of course. imo a lot of his best content comes from pre-fame lecture recordings on topics like this.
 
Here's my prediction for Peterson's future: he will ultimately be remembered as the first person to die from the Internet. He will get so freaked out over twitter or some other thing that it will kill him, and when enough time has passed that he's reduced to a few paragraphs in a weird history of this era, it'll end by mentioning the bizarre nature of his end.

I guess filming is underway at Peterson Academy. It looks sort of like it's going to be a lobsterized version of The Great Courses. Confirmed topics include Nietzsche, Churchill, statistics, and the Sermon on the Mount. Peterson Academy's Twitter is divided between minor behind-the-scenes updates like this and anti-woke outrage bait.

I will say I'm pleased to see JBP has apparently given up on those monk strap shoes and weird two-tone suits he was so fond of a few years ago.

Look at that classroom!

Obviously not a conjob taken at some rented space bought yesterday.
 
Actually has taken a look at this academy's website. Well grifters gonna grift. What is this shit about drastically reducing the cost of a bachelor's degree?
