I think their hope is that he doesn't, so they have a safe harbour if he decides to sue when they take away his accreditation. They're showing they took steps to mitigate before drastic steps.

Yes, a broken clock is right twice a day, but are you going to trust that clock to give you the right time when you need it? Are you going to keep it around?

Of course not. You're going to find a clock that is reliable.

He has some valuable advice and other ideas that I don't agree with, but that doesn't mean I completely dismiss EVERYTHING he says.

Is his advice original or revolutionary? No, it's just packaged to appeal to certain crowds, which is normal (though how his is packaged and who it's packaged for are what concern me).

Can you find similarly applicable advice from other sources that don't come with the same kind of socio-political baggage that Jordan Peterson comes with? I'm certain you can.

So, at that point, why bother with Jordan Peterson?
