Need a plate of generic, insipid platitudes with a giant helping of bad science and misogyny?

He laces practical advice with misogynistic and bigoted undertones. He tells people to adhere to the "natural order" and you shouldn't try to improve the world but only strive to improve yourself and be a better worker bee. He stopped practicing psychology and teaching it because what is taught in psychology doesn't agree with his political views. Recently he has chosen to be a right-wing voice for the daily wire to personally profit off of airing his grievances with society at large. He calls his fellow colleagues in his profession "butchers" for giving gender affirming care and he might lose his license because he is maligning the profession he himself was a part of. He seems that he would rather nuke his credentials to further his career as a pundit. He is a deeply disturbed man that has yet to get his house in order lecturing young people, mostly men, about what it means to be a productive member of society.

Yep, and to him and the people he takes advantage of, he'd be dumb not to do this. When you value money above all else, it's a big brain move to do the thing that gets you the most money. He's good at his game, but it's an entirely different game than what mature and reasonable adults play.
