For me at least, there's a question as to, "which Jordan Peterson?"

There is the guy you just described, who existed before his year(s?) long struggle with addiction, and then there is the apparently (to me at least) bitter, resentful and angry man who returned after.

Since his return, his expressions, language, positions (and even clothing) have taken on a darker, angrier tone and there's a lot less hope in what I've seen.

For me, this makes this individual different from some others who may fade away over some of issues cited in the article, but remain essentially the same person.

His personality and message changed after a deep and difficult struggle.

I'm not trying to criticize or defend the man, just raising the issue that he may be different from some others in the list.
