The dark constellation is what I call the arrangement of freckles on my taint.
I*The IAU need scientific photographic evidence of this constellation otherwise you will have no choice but to declare that hypothesis null and void.
The teardrop landed in between the 'l' and 'k' keys when typing on his phone and he was seething too much to notice.
(crying) :kermit-pain: Webster's Dictionary defines lulz as
lms if you possess any of the dark constellation of personality traits associated with trolling :troll:
i possess all three: being trans, being a cultural marxist and referring to this dork as "Dr. Peepeeterson"
Braver then the troops, also you dropped this queen :order-of-lenin:
"...and then..." inhales deeply " And then they call the things they like based." wipes away a single tear "Things are based on where they originate and thus these youths are attempting to return to the womb and..." deep breath "And undo God's creation." tears pour down his face

Literally what even happened to this dork. This guy was a tenured college professor who had some level of respect in his field. He wasn't huge or anything, but his colleagues seemed to like him personally and he was regularly published in psychology journals. He was pretty weird and nerdy and had terrible opinions, then he got famous for being a transphobe. He was on the top of the world in 2018. Just wrote his shitty book, got a lot of interviews for hating trans people, massive fanbase and one of the more subscribed people on Patreon I think.
He now tweets six hundred times per day after recovering from a benzos addiction in a Serbian hospital where he got covid and nearly died. Also his daughter is in a semi-abusive relationship with him where she's taking advantage of his notoriety and addictions. Also I believe his son-in-law is some kind of pornographer who's been accused of human trafficking. His high brow opinions have folded into one-way arguments with Elliot Page, now he's what, calling the mods on internet trolls for doing too many lulz?
he's written two self help books by now, and i kind of figured he's still doing the speaking circuit if he's not actively working on another

Like most transphobic academics, he's doubled down on his brainworms so often that he's come fully apart by now. This shit rots your brain, and Peterson is a textbook example for how it happens.
He's a Jungian psychologists, so his colleagues were already likely to give him the side eye before all this started. Talking about chaos dragons instead of practicing psychology as an evidence-based science has ... kinda fallen out of favor. It just doesn't hold up when you want to practice based on modern clinical standards. You can't back that esoteric nonsense up with numbers in the same way behavorial pschologists and the like do. People still clinging to the old ways are becoming more and more of an oddity.
Then you have the whole trans topic, were the scientific consensus has completely changed in the last 10 years. It's literally only that long that science has moved away from using Ray Blanchard and the Benjamin Scale to "determine" if somebody is a "true transs_xual" (that's literally the term they used). Before that, us transfemmes literally had to pretend to be hyperfeminine tradwives to get any treatment and many psychologists saw nothing wrong with using our hotness as a measurement if somebody was "valid" and "deserved" to get on HRT. Even less time than that has passed since being trans was no longer seen as a mental illness - that only changed in 2017 or 2018. And at around the same time, it became a hate crime in Canada to misgender trans people. Which was the last straw for the peepee lobster boi.
That's how his saga started: Somebody who was already on shaky ground in his field saw that views on one of his hot button issues finally flipped - after decades of abuse and torture we faced from the medical profession, it finally happened that the researchers and therapists that had been on our side and advocated for humane treatment standards began to win, and societal and legal views began to shift according to that new clinical consensus as well. It's hard to imagine how backwards things were back then - forced sterilization of trans people was a thing in Sweden or Germany until ten years ago. It was literally that bad, and that kind of oppression finally began to fold. Which apparently made Peterson panic and double down on his transphobia. He's doubled down ever since, and to keep that up he has to fall deeper and deeper down his reactionary rabbit hole, as he has all of clinical psychology against him. All the actual evidence, all the studies on the treatment of trans people say we're valid and that the medical gatekeeping and all the other shit is indefensible and based on a bunch of nonsense.
And Peterson can't stand that. Like many academics, he defines himself by being smarter than the unwashed masses and always right - being so thoroughly debunked is not only a professional setback, it is an attack at the core of his self image. He cannot admit he was wrong about trans people without suffering a narcissistic injury of lethal proportions. It's the ultimate humiliation to him that people like me are real and exist and that he is expected to acknowledge that reality. He's not alone in that regard, either. Other, very similar examples from academia include the British arch-terf and resigned gender studies professor Kathleen Stock, clinical psychologist Alexander Korte (who in Germany is still singlehandedly keeping enbies from officially getting the treatment they deserve) or evolutionary psychologist, fashy pundit and homophobic ultra Ulrich Kutschera, who works closely with the AfD party that was just involved in the nazi coup planning in Germany. There's a lot of reactionary professors who are too stubborn to correct their outdated views on gender and think it's some horrible 1984 style totalitarianism that they have to respect my pronouns and aren't allowed to drive me to suicide any longer. So they resign from academia and start writing opinion pieces for reactionary propaganda sites instead. That's an entire cottage industry for these people.
Thank you, that's really thoughtful and it seems like you've got some insight into academic psychology. It's ridiculous how much universities are seen as some left-wing bastion, despite still being full of transphobic cranks.
It's also becoming obvious that the only career path these people have is catering to more and more deranged fascist weirdos. Once they get expelled out of polite society, usually by their own hand, the only money left is becoming an angry twitter personality.
it's worth noting that both Peterson and Stock resigned on their own. in case of Peterson, i think it's safe to say he did it exactly because he can make easier money and get more admiration as a reactionary pundit, even though he claimed it was because his students are discriminated against for being white cishet dudes. yes, he basically admitted that literally anybody picking him for their phd is a white cishet dude.

Apparently he wants Elon to make Twitter an exclusive space for verified users so people cannot bully him anonymously by replying to his gibberish with things like "LOL" or "LMAO", epic owns he doesn't know how to retort.
How somebody like Elon Musk of all people should be able to verify the entirity of twitter users is beyond me, though. AFAIK the guy fired almost anybody tasked with verifying users, in spite of wanting to move from ads to bluecheck subscriptions as twitter's main source of income.
i guess kentucky can have little a single-minded trolling, as a treat
Your industry can burn. I will approach you professionally, as I do every activity, but how dare you? You tiny souls. You malignant professionals. How dare you treat anyone this way. You'll hear from me. Goddamn you. :up-yours-woke-moralists:
