A right-wing commentator’s rant about woke paper towel advice saw him thoroughly rinsed
Professor of Psychology and self-appointed anti-political-correctness warrior, Jordan B. Peterson prides himself on his cool-headed rational approach to discussing what he sees as the spread of woke culture.
It’s fair to say that the mask slipped when he was confronted by the horrible liberty-threatening spectacle of advice against using an unnecessarily large amount of paper towels.
We’d like to be a fly on the wall when he sees a ‘Fasten seatbelt’ sign on a plane, or a recipe suggestion on a packet of rice.
The takedowns were a thing of beauty.

the woke marxist left will not stop until every man is forced to use a bidet, rather than allowing us to walk around with dried poop as God intended.

Imagine being as well-educated on culture and history as Jordan Peterson clearly is, and thinking this mumbled request not to waste paper is ‘tyranny’. https://t.co/gAtM7guiH2

i keep losing track of what is meant to be woke. using fewer paper towels is woke? because believing in climate change is woke? or is composting woke? i am genuinely trying to follow the thread here https://t.co/9GM9C0LGJK

Behold Jordan Peterson, the most triggered, fragile snowflake in all creation, reaching for the smelling salts over a paper towel dispenser. https://t.co/jxUETmr54v

It’s going to be fun watching you impotently rage about dumber and dumber things as you age. Please get mad about overnight oats next.

i think it's really hilarious that there was a moment when quite a few pundits were like "hey maybe this guy is doing something valuable for our young men" https://t.co/zdEc709p4I

Nah. It bothers him because he has the maturity of a toddler who doesn't like being told what to do. https://t.co/tGWZnPf2Rv

I can understand why you'd worry about tissues being limited seeing as how you're constantly crying and sniveling about stupid shit like this.
