Which is, as I said, sad. Peterson had legitimately good and important contributions; I'll always defend him for that, and not take those away from him. But he's currently operating as the enemy, and that can't be ignored either.
Yeah, he doesn't understand why Anonymous is a thing and why it is absolutely important that that be kept. I don't think he was paying attention to the early days of the Internet and how being anonymous helped shape the Internet to be the way it is now. Many entities are trying to remove that (and you got schizos like the ones on KiwiFarms who go out of their way to unmask people for some reason) and Peterson is now doing the equivalent of asking corporations and government to be even more evil by demanding anonymity on the Internet to be removed.
In other words, he's the new "The Internet is a series of tubes!" boomer of the 2020's.
I think it may be as simple as "he can't handle being trolled on twitter". Dude just doesn't belong on the internet and thinks the solution is to irreversibly damage the internet rather than sort his own shit out and log off. Fuck him and the horse he rode in on.
Lost. Dude lost his marbles, quite a while ago.
