(Thread) Breaking. The intellectual disciple of the far right Jordan Peterson is being treated in RUSSIA for a benzo addiction which his daughter claims was ‘misdiagnosed’ in North America. apple.news/AuIBGdqirSOCcw…
2. Peterson is the University of Toronto psychology professor who became the acceptable face of the far right through his intellectual justifications of racist iconography like Pepe The Frog. He made a fortune through donations on YouTube and Patreon. @NarativLive
3. My heart goes out to Peterson and his family. His situation is dire and I wish him a long-lasting recovery. Secondly, it's appalling that the right wing @NationalPost has reported on this without context, especially as Peterson is a columnist for them. nationalpost.com/news/jordan-pe…
4. When I worked at Canada's #CBC in 2018, I executive produced a series of reports exposing how the right-wing cultural wars were moving from the U.S. to Canada. When anchor @WendyMesleyCBC sat down with Peterson, it was with photographic evidence.
5. There's plenty of Benzo addiction in North America. The Canadian health care system is highly regarded. Why would Peterson need to go to Russia for treatment when it's free in Canada? @NarativLive
6. Over the last three years I've exposed how Russia created the culture wars which got us to 2016 and then actively fought them online. narativ.org/2017/09/12/fac…

8. Recently we learned that the far right 'The Base' was headquartered in Russia. theguardian.com/world/2020/jan…
9. Of course Peterson may be in Russia because of their particular diagnostic skills, but I'm not suprised the far right cultural warrior has gone to Moscow to tend to his battle wounds. /END narativ.org/2017/09/12/fac…
P.S. My work at the @CBC was also the subject of a public disinformation attack on me and my work by the #NationalPost and extremist Rebel Media, which ran a public campaign to get me fired.
P.S.I am unable to publicly share everything that happened at CBC because of a settlement agreement with the CBC. I'm not sure how much longer I can stand by and as we continue to witness the horrifying erosion of editorial integrity across mainstream media but also at the CBC.
