5. Just a note on Peterson's remarks in the interview at the cited post.

His condemnation of other psychologists and clinicians should be seen in the light of the treatment of Peterson by the ICRC - Inquiries, Complaints and Reports Committee (“ICRC”) of the College of Psychologists of Ontario ( "CPO" ).

From wikipedia

...

In November, 2022 the ICRC ordered Peterson to complete a specified continuing education or remedial program regarding professionalism in public statements.[27][31][32] The ICRC concluded that some of the language used in his public statements between January 2022 and June 2022 "may be reasonably regarded by members of the profession as disgraceful, dishonourable and/or unprofessional" and that his statements "posed moderate risk of harm to the public" by "undermining public trust in the profession of psychology".[27] They also concluded that he “appeared to be engaging in degrading comments about a former client and making demeaning jokes on the Joe Rogan experience".[27]

Peterson denied any wrongdoing and filed for judicial review.[33][31] Peterson's appeal was reviewed in August, 2023 by a panel of three judges of the Ontario Divisional Court, who unanimously upheld the college's initial decision[34] concluding that the ICRC's reasoning in their 2022 decision was "transparent, intelligible, justifiable, and reasonable" and ordered Peterson to pay the CPO $25,000 in legal costs.[27] The decision was upheld on appeal to the Ontario Court of Appeals in January 2024.[35]
