Jordan Peterson's influence has waned, with his fan base diminishing and controversies surrounding his stance on Bill C16, his debate with Kathy Newman, and his suspension from Twitter.
Infact verdict: Mostly True (77/100).
The claims about Jordan Peterson cover various aspects of his public life and controversies. Evidence supports that Peterson protested Bill C16, debated Kathy Newman with significant viewership, and was suspended from Twitter for comments about Elliot Page. However, the claim about his fan base imploding lacks strong evidence, and while he is associated with the intellectual dark web, this is more a matter of public perception than a factual assertion.
