I was curious about why this guy had such beef with a worm. Does he think Sesame Street is left-wing propaganda or something? So I did some digging.

I found two fairly long threads on reddit, where 95% of the thread is finding ways to explain why Jordan Peterson has penis envy, psychotic break, etc. And the remaining fraction were quietly, downvotedly, pointing out that it’s an edited tweet from an account who's been applying some of his tweets to look like they're against sesame street.

This seems to be the original "Go To Hell".

Thanks for explaining all this. It didn't really make sense to me that JP would react like that to such an innocuous tweet, but almost everyone else seemed to believe it.

I mean.

He is a lunatic.

[-] [email protected] 18 points 11 months ago

Part of why everyone fell for it is that he's done pretty similar things before. It's 100% believable that he would do this.

The fact that people in the very thread you answer tell you that "it didn't make sense to them" proves that it is not 100% believable

Maybe, but did you see how he flipped out about that swimsuit cover?

[-] [email protected] 7 points 11 months ago

Crazy how easily I could have fallen for this if nobody else did the legwork

[-] [email protected] 8 points 11 months ago

Thank you for the debunk. I wish there were flairs for edited but still funny content like r/ToiletPaperUSA had.

Argh, I fell for it! Thanks for debunking this post.
