Personally I blame Jordan Peterson. He described dopamine's role correctly, just didn't adjust the message to his audience, who in turn misunderstood what he said and passed that on, referencing him as an authority.

Now that I think about it adrenaline was the previous go-to chemical which somehow explained all human behaviour.

Are you sure you don't mean Andrew Huberman? Jordan Peterson has probably mentioned dopamine, but if so, its at a rate of about one mention every 50 to 100 hours.
