'Anti-Snowflake' Jordan Peterson Quits Twitter Because He Can't ... (Daily Beast)

The self-styled “public intellectual” apparently can't handle the consequences of sh*tposting about a swimsuit model's physical appearance online.

Hours later, the supposed “free speech” enthusiast complained that “The endless flood of vicious insult is really not something that can be experienced anywhere else” and lamented that Twitter’s “incentive structure” makes it “intrinsically and dangerously insane.” As such, he continued, “I told my staff to change my password, to keep me from temptation, and am departing once again.” Peterson later concluded his farewell: “I plan to write an article on the technical reasons that Twitter is maddening us all very soon. And no amount of authoritarian tolerance is going to change that.” Of course, seeing as Twitter is a public space, the Tucker Carlson-approved pop psychologist’s insult was met with a swift and often hilarious dragging. On Monday morning, in response to Sports Illustrated revealing Yumi Nu as the magazine’s first-ever Asian-American plus-size swimsuit model, Peterson, a college professor and full-grown adult, tweeted to his 2.7 million followers: “Sorry. Not beautiful.

But Peterson pushed his dramatic perspective too far when posting a Sports Illustrated cover of Yumi Nu, a conventionally attractive model boasting thick thighs, and declared the photo to be an example of “authoritarian tolerance,” for some reason. After all, Western civilization isn’t going to defend itself - there are beauty and gender norms being challenged every day! Peterson, famous for decrying the youth of today as hyper-sensitive snowflakes, took great offense at being the subject of online mockery.

The academic has quit the platform in a huff after he was criticised for calling the Sports Illustrated swimsuit model Yumi Nu 'not beautiful'

What makes Peterson’s aversion to criticism extra hilarious is that one of the rules in his famous book is “Set your house in perfect order before you criticize the world.” Peterson’s own house, alas, is a complete mess. One rule for public life in the modern age – certainly one that every woman in the public eye has discovered – is that you have to develop a very thick skin. There was the infamous time, for example, when the Indian essayist Pankaj Mishra accused Peterson of peddling “ fascist mysticism”. Peterson, in turn, called Mishra an “arrogant, racist son of a bitch” and proclaimed: “If you were in my room at the moment, I’d slap you happily.” “The endless flood of vicious insult [sic] is really not something that can be experienced anywhere else,” Peterson tweeted on Monday, “If I have something to say I’ll write an article or make a video. If Twitter had been around during the age of enlightenment we’d presumably have had Immanuel Kant furiously leaning over his keyboard typing: “the Queen of Prussia is NOT hot. For now, however, he wants us all to know that Twitter is a hellhole which makes your life infinitely worse.
