I don't understand the cult of personality that surrounds Jordan Peterson. He built his career on self help books and then became a darling of the right because he openly and with good articulation challenged the insanity on the left with reasonable logic...

But in the 'Alt-right' I think many always knew that some of his preachings were kind of fucked up. Most of his core fans however came from his self help books... apparently they really helped a bunch of people. But then he showed his real character when he went into rehab. Guess what? Your darling guru is a drug addict addicted to anti-anxiety drugs. And he suffers from anxiety... He was not a guru of self help... he was a fraud poping pills to solve his problems. And he was a coward who decided a coma was better than withdrawal... and now he is a vegetable who can't walk/talk properly.

But he still seems to have a huge fan base. Who still looks up to this clown?
