    David Gorski, MD, PhD Retweeted Michael Shermer

    WTF is a skeptic magazine doing publishing a defense of Peterson by one of his former students? As one of the commenters asked: Is this an analysis or is this an ad for Peterson's book? I know I couldn't tell the difference. "Superficial" is too kind a word to describe it.https://twitter.com/michaelshermer/status/1004375251281571840 …

    eSkeptic article on @jordanbpeterson by one of his former students. How does Peterson's advice square up with the scientific evidence for clinical effectiveness? https://www.skeptic.com/reading_room/jordan-petersons-evidence-based-endeavor/ … pic.twitter.com/GFYQRDE7Un

        And...Shermer, stung by the copious well-deserved criticism he's been receiving for publishing a vacuous defense of Jordan Peterson by a former student, doubles down. Sad!https://twitter.com/michaelshermer/status/1004884800681852928 …

        Heads are exploding, moralization modules dialed to 11 because we published a professional therapist's analysis of @jordanbpeterson use of Cognitive Behavior Therapy & he concluded the science backs him. Just reporting the facts, not moralizing. https://www.skeptic.com/reading_room/jordan-petersons-evidence-based-endeavor/ … pic.twitter.com/DU71iwUJxg

        No surprise to see Shermer's name here.

        Unfortunately Shermer has completely abandoned all skepticism in favor of political fame. He wants to be one of the “intellectuals of the dark web.”

        Quite disappointing indeed. I hold Skeptic Magazine in high esteem, but Peterson is incoherent, inconsistent, and a proponent of Jungian pseudoscience. He isn’t notable for his scholarship, but a YouTube video. This is the best critique I’ve seen: https://www.currentaffairs.org/2018/03/the-intellectual-we-deserve …

        It's the same thing the so-called skeptics that fanboi for Sam Harris do. He's an atheist! Let's all ignore how ignorant and uninformed he is on Islam and women's rights!

        Could be a courtesy of the IDW cross marketing campaign for synergistic grifting.

        The “Skeptic” label is increasingly being owned by those members of the alt right who don’t do Jesus.

        I know. I plan on observing at @NECSS and maybe talking to skeptics there about this.
