Yeah good luck following that reliable J Peterson data to his quack regimen of pills and the ridiculous diet of a feral 6-year old who hates taking baths.

Re: American MICHAEL BERG (AmCham Board Member) Caught on Video Allegedly Trying to Bribe Police in Cambodia
Where to begin! Here's an old Guardian article from 2018 for a start
How dangerous is Jordan B Peterson, the rightwing professor who 'hit a hornets' nest'?
Since his confrontation with Cathy Newman, the Canadian academic’s book has become a bestseller. But his arguments are riddled with ‘pseudo-facts’ and conspiracy theories......
Not everybody is persuaded that Peterson is a thinker of substance, however. Last November, fellow University of Toronto professor Ira Wells called him “the professor of piffle” – a YouTube star rather than a credible intellectual. Tabatha Southey, a columnist for the Canadian magazine Macleans, designated him “the stupid man’s smart person”.
“Peterson’s secret sauce is to provide an academic veneer to a lot of old-school rightwing cant, including the notion that most academia is corrupt and evil, and banal self-help patter,” says Southey. “He’s very much a cult thing, in every regard. I think he’s a goof, which does not mean he’s not dangerous.”.....................
...............................In many ways, Peterson is an old-fashioned conservative who mourns the decline of religious faith and the traditional family, but he uses of-the-moment tactics. His YouTube gospel resonates with young white men who feel alienated by the jargon of social-justice discourse and crave an empowering theory of the world in which they are not the designated oppressors. Many are intellectually curious. On Amazon, Peterson’s readers seek out his favourite thinkers: Dostoevsky, Nietzsche, Solzhenitsyn, Jung. His long, dense video lectures require commitment. He combines the roles of erudite professor, self-help guru and street-fighting scourge of the social-justice warrior: the missing link between Steven Pinker, Dale Carnegie and Gamergate. On Reddit, fans testify that Peterson changed, or even saved, their lives. His recent sold-out lectures in London had the atmosphere of revival meetings.

What the hell happened to Jordan Peterson?
Jordan Peterson has turned out to be the self-help guru unable to help himself. By Caroline Overington The Australian Nov 5 2021
Peterson disappeared from public life soon after leaving Australia. Rumours as to the state of his health since then are legion: he became addicted to prescription painkillers (true); he had to go to detox (true); he’s had pneumonia (true); suffered neurological damage (true); he’s got problems with his relationship with his adored son (true); he contracted COVID-19 (also true.)......................
............It is not yet known whether Peterson will ever be well enough to return to public life and he knows some people will question the worth of his advice anyway: “Like, why would anyone take anything I say seriously? And I guess what I would say is if you’re going to wait to learn from people who don’t make mistakes, or don’t have tragedy into their life …”
Well, you know the rest. And yes, of course there has been some online glee about the predicament in which Peterson finds himself. Some have suggested he was never more than charlatan but, for others, the feeling is one of understandable disappointment, like he somehow talked the big talk and turned out not to have the answers. Like anyone does.

There are certainly a lot of opinions on Peterson the man, and I admit I didn't read everything or every article you attached, but can you point me to the discrediting of his research that has been peer reviewed?Kuroneko wrote: ↑Fri Nov 05, 2021 11:53 amWhere to begin!

To anyone on the far left those who do not agree with them are instantly "far right" like there's no middle ground between. You know, the centre and left /right of centre?? Nope, It's our way or you're Far Right .. simple as that.
So. 1 argument debunked... onto the next one

Jordan Peterson teaches how to live in society but not with yourself
That's why he became a suicidal drug addict
Re: American MICHAEL BERG (AmCham Board Member) Caught on Video Allegedly Trying to Bribe Police in Cambodia
The second piece "the professor of piffle" is a perfect example of "the story of the Zebra". He's attacking Peterson for not toeing the line, for daring to be out-spoken, for standing out.
It starts with a mis-representation of Petersons objections to using pronouns. It was all about compelled speech. Not about upsetting someone. But, they never talk about this in the hit pieces do they. It's all dog-whistles and Nazi's!
As he has repeatedly stated, NEVER before in history has there been a law to compel speech. This, he believes is dangerous ground but no ones discusses that. They just go back to "so YOU dont think trans women are real women?" type of questions when the discussion is about compelling the words we use by law.
He then states Peterson has not made any worthwhile contributions to the field ... again .. laughable given the link that was posted previously regarding his academic papers.
So yeah, the whole article comes across as petty jealousy wrapped in spite.
