Wow, the national post referring to Jordan Peterson as a best selling author and psychologist who is sooo busy touring, implying he's somehow an upstanding citizen is creepy as hell.

It’s the National Post, I would expect nothing less.
The national post polishes a scam artist.
As usual I'll provide an example of why the Postmedia is a joke.
Article titled:
Indigenous leaders call for cancellation of Kneecap concerts over alleged support for Hamas, Hezbollah
The indigenous people in question:
The signatories are largely involved with Indigenous Embassy Jerusalem, an international group of Indigenous people from various countries that expresses Indigenous solidarity with Israel.
The comments on that article are... something.
125,000 Canadians move to the US each year for a better life - our best people! My neighbour moved to Texas in December and wished she'd made the move a long time ago. There's bigger everything - larger homes, larger pay, better disposable incomes, more vibrancy, better weather and better people
Someone should buy it and turn it into a queer youth hub and support centre
Make sure they respect ALL the pronouns. In fact I'd like to see a plaque listing them on the front of the house itself along with a land acknowledgement and giant permanent Pride flag. And a vegan on site cafe.
Make it unprofitable to sell.
A library about the history of transgender people.
Oooooooooo I like this!!!
Good riddance. Sadly the internet knows no boundaries, but it's a start at least.
I hope people are starting to realize what a dork assed loser he is.
Just like Trump is a poor man's version of a rich person, Peterson's a dumb man's version of an intellectual.
Are you somehow implying that using the biggest words in the english language constantly and still not being able to back up or argue for a single thing that's ever left your mouth makes you an idiot?
It'd be hilarious if ICE deported him back to Canada.
Noooooo i don't want him back
I mean not for us but in general yes haha.
ICE can send him to that shiny new concentration camp and keep him there. Or maybe he'll be lucky enough to be made stateless by sending him to an unfortunate African country. Peterson has done so much harm to the LGBTQ+ community and young men that he deserves no less.
Oooh, then we could refuse him entry and leave him in limbo.
Good riddance.
Jordan Peterson started out as a talented and charismatic academic that gave advice to young people who wanted to improve their life ("clean your room" "Spend time reading books" "don't be hard on yourself").
He slowly turned into a millionaire guru. He now praises pseudo-science, snake oil salesmen and unscrupulous politicians. He is also a self-hating Canadian.
Characterizing Peterson as a "talented and charismatic academic"?? I don't know, maybe he was before anyone knew of him, but he certainly hasn't been that in the public eye.
Jordan Peterson became a well-known figure after publishing a series of Youtube videos about his opposition to Bill C-16, where he argued that respecting people's pronouns is an affront to his free speech. He's been a hack, a grifter, and an asshole since day one.
No thanks. You'd never be able to get the smell of keto-farts, lobsters, bullshit and pompous righteous self-indignation out.
I _love_ the fact that he no longer has an audience here and the only ones who platform him are alt-right nutbar MAGA channels.
Same. Good riddance to bad rubbish as they say.
Please take PP with you
Isn't it hilarious how he's pretending to be a cowboy all over rural Alberta right now so he doesn't have to get a job?
What’s worse is that rural Alberta smoothbrains will vote that assclown in. Instead of someone actually from that riding, like Bonnie Critchely.
That is totally unfair. I think there should be a fair trade of my wife and I going to live in his condo in toronto and he can have my one in the US. Because like im willing to make the sacrifice and I called it so no other us person has to sacrifice because dibs and all.
I support this but I wouldn't want you to have to live in a house he lived in. It must be crawling with filth.
Don't let the door hit you on your ignorant, intolerant ass on the way out 😀
It’s an utterly hideous McMansion riddled with neoclassical embellishments that don’t make architectural sense, isn’t it?
It sure is.
In Kermit the frog's voice: You have to define what is "up", what is "for", what is "sale"? It's not bloody obvious what these terms mean. This move is like Raskolnikov's struggle with his wretchedness as described in the book of Genesis...
Don't let the doorknob hit your ass on the way oot.
Bye snowflake.

The 53-year-old Tesla and SpaceX CEO told Canadian psychologist Jordan Peterson in an interview last July that the decision to build a supercomputer in Memphis evoked references, at least in part, to the Memphis of ancient Egypt and its pantheon of gods.
“Perhaps that’s where our new god will come from,” Musk said.

fuck look how rich you can get being a hate monger. he has dumped piles of cash into that place. cash he got by bigotting all over the place.

Don’t let the door hit you on the way out.
Don't come back, you Wish-tier-pseudo-intellectual-Don-Cherry-hand-me-down-suit-wearing-ativan-addled-meat-shit-taking freak.
I'll give 'em five quid for it
Too nice of a place for such an ass.
We don't want him!
