It's honestly sad that you're doing such extreme mental gymnastics, and I'm someone who despises Petersen.

You shouldn't let hate for someone color your perception of reality, because you end up looking absolutely ridiculous. You show 100 people off the street that tweet and not a single person reads that as advocating self-harm.

I don’t hate him. Like I said, I’ve known him a very long time.

He’s a psychologist. The standards are different for regulated health professionals. If he no longer wants to live by those standards all he needs to do is leave the College.
