      Are you serious @gorskon ? You haven't even seen the articles on @jordanbpeterson & you're assuming there is no skepticism in them? You've violated every skeptical principle there is in 1 tweet. For you skepticism = denial/debunking & evidence is irrelevant—you are not a skeptic!https://twitter.com/gorskon/status/1029734063698051073 …

      I let my subscription lapse a while back, more out of sheer laziness than any conscious decision not to renew. Periodically, I used to think about resubscribing. However, if this is the direction the magazine has gone since my last subscription I'm never going to re-subscribe.

      OK, then, tell me the skeptical take you've taken on Peterson in the issue. I'll wait. 🤔

          Jordan Peterson, maybe wrong about ancient Egyptian DNA science, but also maybe right about fixed gender roles that sooth my aging white male ego. Blessed be.

          Jordan Peterson, maybe wrong about attributing huge weight to crustacean mating habits as a metaphor for human mating interactions, but maybe right about the benefits of toxic masculinity overall.

          Nobody owes you anything David. You have a choice to stop following Shermer on Twitter and anyone else with whom you disagree. Why do you follow anyone since obviously you're so much smarter than the rest of us?

          And then even when it is clearly explained, you will STILL be "skeptical". You are just a dumbass who confuses skepticism with cynicism Its like watching a baby play with a musical instrument & all it does is stick parts in its mouth & sucks them

          Peterson is right about some things, and incredibly wrong about others. He sometimes says things that are flat out untrue and he well knows it. A fallible human, in other words. If you can't sort the wheat from the chaff, it's as much your failing as his.
