I've actually softened quite a bit and forgiven Peterson somewhat for his benzo Russian coma therapy escapades during early COVID.

But Peterson hiding behind the "it was prescribed by a doctor!" defense for his moral and professional failings is such weaksauce.

Peterson is a world renoun Harvard psychologist for fuck sakes. He's not some rube that some pill mill doctor got hooked. Peterson knew the dangers of the medication on Day 1. Peterson also knew there exists dozens upon dozens of other options to treat his depression and anxiety that don't carry these same risks.

Peterson likely ended up on high doses of tranquilizers because he knows they work temporarily to alleviate your symptoms and they work fast without having to put in any hard work. But there's a terrible price to be paid that he was aware of for that Faustian bargain.

The propofol that killed Michael Jackson was prescribed by a doctor as well.
