DCP Takes Aim at Everybody Wang Chung
Posted: Wed Nov 01, 2023 10:04 pm
I noticed that, over at "SeN," Dr. Peterson has been posting his usual travelogues, but it turns out that even adventures abroad are not enough to deter him from pursuing a vendetta. He writes:
Regardless, it's pretty easy to "clear the fog" for Professor Peterson, since there have been scores of people that he's "gone after" or was cruel to--either personally, or via an email campaign (either alone or with his L-Skinny cronies), or that he oversaw in an editorial capacity. Could it be Grant Palmer, for example? Or John Dehlin? Maybe it was a Mormon Transhumanist? Maybe it's Jonathan Neville? David Bokovoy? Brian Hauglid? James White? The list goes on and on and on.
Perhaps you're curious about the backstory to this. It turns out that it originates up in the Celestial Forum, where Dr. Cam poses a question to Everybody Wang Chung:I posted the item below on Monday and again on Tuesday. I’m posting it yet again just to ensure that Everybody’s WC has had full opportunity to see it. When I first encountered his explanation that he hates me because of my supposedly vicious campaign to harm an anonymous friend of his, I thought that he might, for once, be expressing a sincere (if mistaken and misguided) sentiment. That’s still a theoretical possibility, I suppose. Given his long track record, though, I’m much more inclined to believe that he’s either been played by somebody or — by far the more likely explanation — that it’s just another of his malignant fictions about me:
I’ve been mildly puzzled for years now about the hostile personal fixation that some pseudonymous folks over at the Peterson Obsession Board seem to have on me. Well, I finally have a clue with regard to one of them — the one that I’ve identified here as Everybody’s WC — who claims that he hates me because of a multiyear crusade of defamation and slander and ceaseless personal attacks that I conducted against his best friend in an attempt to get that friend fired. Having seen the stress, the hurt, and the frustration that his friend and his friend’s family suffered over those years, Everybody’s WC has concluded that I am, in his words, “pure evil.”
That would be a somewhat understandable reaction, I suppose, if a bit overwrought. But I have literally no idea what he’s talking about. I can think of no such case. Even after searching through all of the dim recesses of my mind, I can’t think of any instance in which I’ve ever sought to have anybody fired. Moreover, I can’t even imagine myself doing such a thing. What on earth does he have in mind?
I really would like to know. Seriously. So I invite him, or some surrogate for him, either to contact me privately or to post something here in the comments section so that I can understand his accusation. As it is, I haven’t the foggiest idea.

Real talk. Why do you dislike Peterson so much?

A couple of thoughts. First, why should Everybody Wang Chung be expected to expose his friend? DCP often states plainly that he won't identify the people he's hanging out with because he doesn't want them to get criticized. It seems rather hypocritical for him to demand that others do what he's unwilling to do. Second, he says that this is either "mistaken and misguided" that that Everybody Wang Chung is engaging in "another of his malignant fictions." So why bother asking? If he's either likely lying or telling the truth but is "mistaken and misguided," then why bother at all?Good question. I've told my story to Dr. Shades in person over lunch before, but long story short, DCP actively tried to get my best friend fired. It wasn't a one-off attempt, but a multi-year long crusade of defamation, slander and personal attack after personal attack. I saw the stress, hurt and frustration my friend and his family suffered through for years. In my book, DCP is pure evil.
In addition to actively trying to destroy my best friend's reputation and career, you have the constant plagiarism, racism, homophobia, misogyny and lying. Take your pick.
Plus, he is such an easy target with his fake accent, ridiculous Interpreter articles and gawd-awful movies.
