Canada didn’t kick him out, he left willingly like a fly attracted to shit.

Yep he moved to Florida

Canadian Psychologist Dr. Jordan Peterson has made it official, announcing on his daughter’s podcast that he has moved to the free state of Florida.

"the free state of Florida"? Is this like a secessionist thing?

[–] [email protected] 17 points 2 months ago (3 children)

I think he's saying that it's free compared to Canada? Not sure, the dude is a drug addict. Also, I can't wait to see how he likes Florida compared to Canada's social services. It's going to be fun.

he was formally on benzodiazapenes, he got addicted, then he decided he would go to russia to get unsanction care to deal with his withdrawals, and the coma caused brain damage.

As I (if I) understand it he is rich so health care is not an issue for him

Look on the bright side, that means he's one step closer to dying in a Salvadoran labor camp

[–] [email protected] 33 points 2 months ago (2 children)

He’s too rich, white, and willing to promote their agenda to be sent to an El Salvador prison camp.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Give it time. Purging their own quickly becomes a priority.

If fascism in the us manages to fester into its next form I can easily see this scenario playing out. Jordan is just enough of an ideologue to ruffle the feathers of the wrong idiot with power.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

Ironic, since he’s long been obsessed with the dangers of falling into the tyranny of left-wing authoritarianism.

So he willingly runs into the arms of right-wing authoritarianism.

At the end of the day, authoritarianism all looks fairly alike in practice. So he may get to experience a taste what he’s long feared (just the Nazi variety, not the Communist variety). So it’s almost like a self-fulfilling prophecy, attracting what you most fear and all that.

Look, maybe Canada has warts. Maybe I don’t like the idea of being forced to use pronouns or whatever, I dunno. But that “woke” stuff is far better than the darkness that’s brewing here in the US, especially here in the South. People are embracing Fascism, full-throated, here. I want out. I’d happily trade places with Dr. Peterson and move my family to Canada.

People friendly with the regime are in no way safe from being punished by the regime. That's exactly the outcome of tearing down due process.

This type of person thinks it will be fine because they didn't do anything wrong, even when they're watching people who didn't do anything wrong suffer or die. It comes from growing up in an environment that has a lot of justice and fairness, and so you think it's built into the world somehow, like gravity. It isn't.

They're not sending their best.

[–] [email protected] 50 points 2 months ago

First the election and now this, Canada can't stop winning

[–] [email protected] 49 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Cool, now ICE him the fuck out into El Salvador or something

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I would pay to see the, but he's probably the wrong colour

Germany, Australia, South Africa, and now Canada? Can we not be the world's foremost collector of shitheads, please?

[–] [email protected] 20 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I think that depends on us stopping being such a sweet place for shitheads to do their thing.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago

That's why they call them dreams, unfortunately.

As a Canadian, I say "good riddance". The yokels can keep the piece of shit.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

It's okay, on the whole he's not really going to make things any worse over here, rather that you'd all be rid of him. Maybe he'll even get burned up in this dumpster fire....

A typical JP argument

Me: Grass is green.

Jordan Peterson: Define green.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 months ago

I read the first two pages of the communist manifesto and it didn't mention grass, therefore Marxism is a failed doctrine

I hope none of his neighbours report a suspicious immigrant to ICE.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 months ago

Send him to El Salvador

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Oh, thank god, that snake-oil salesman is finally gone.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)

We don't want him, either.

alot of right wingers seemed to have emigrated to the us from canada, and are the sole cause of right wing problems in the us.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 months ago

Nah don't come here you piece of shit.

[–] Snowpix 12 points 2 months ago

Good fucking riddance! Don't come back. You're not welcome.

We’ve saved a spike for your dome

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago

This honestly makes me a little conflicted about the government black-bagging immigrants off the street.
