I checked and couldn't find these posts by Peterson (and didn't bother with Tate). Granted X is confusing, so can anyone link the actual sources? I found Elmo's Tweets though: https://x.com/elmo/status/1909619518873149470

I absolute hate Andrew Tater Tot.

But holy shit this quote is absolutely amazing: "May you and your Sesame Street become reduced to a pile of burning rubble. Up yours vile creature."

Imagine being a grown adult, and a government official throwing hateful tweets at a puppet

That's the business model sadly.

It’s literally the I fucking hate you and I hope you die meme

That anyone takes these imbeciles seriously is just astounding to me. I got viscerally mad when I saw some Jordan Peterson books at Barnes and Noble the other night. I picked them up and hid them in a corner.

People who like Jordan Peterson can't read books .

The head of my men's group therapy heavily recommended Peterson.

That sounds like a very good reason to change therapy groups.

I actually saw a guy reading one of his books at the pool of a resort I was staying at in Thailand. I audibly scoffed and had to explain to my wife who Peterson was.

What in the brain rot?

Does anyone have the links? I know some people who would hate to see this.

In Peterson's case it's literal brain rot.

His health has been declining in the last 5 years and continues to get worse the last I checked.

I was about to say, did he drink his own Kool aid or something?

Cheering for the rot, btw.

If I recall correctly, he was "self-medicating" (aka abusing) benzos (or some other drug) and now he's a complete mess
