Psychiatrists have one of the highest suicide rates of all professions. I'm fully aware of what his family looks like. To go a little /x/ on you, energy, in either polar end, has influence upon those in proximity. When one absorbs so much negative energy, like a trauma surgeon or a psychiatrist, that tends to build up. This guy has been at it for decades. Calling him an addict has long been used to discredit his work to moralize young men. There were even rumors for a while, which I still subscribe to, that he was poisoned. I think what you're doing is attacking the messenger. His network effect ought to be defended. It sucks that you can only see the trees and not the forest. He does a great deal to help young men in a time when demoralization is rampant and it sucks to see you also suffering from demoralization.
I think you're smarter than this.

lol "Don't judge JP while I'm judging you"

It's not demoralization, it's warning people to not blindly follow and trust some "assets" who have major weak points.

Am I?
I do think you're smarter than this. Also, tu quoque is just spinning wheels, man... But I do think it's demoralization. The people aiming to stop others from moralizing people only really detract from the process. Rising tides raise all ships, they say.
Look, I too follow the careful of ecelebs mindset. Don't get me wrong. But I do find Peterson, though he has glaring faults, like the ones you often point out, is one of the most positively influential ecelebs there's been in the history of the internet. Coaxing men away from benefiting from his efforts seems suspicious no matter how you cut it.
