He's definitely suffered some sort of brain damage, he seems much more erratic and incoherent before his medically induced comma. This one feels like mostly the old Peterson with some of his filter gone, lol. Maybe we should put some of the centrist cryptofascists in medical comas for a while so they can't hide who they are?
Not quite the same thing, but I used to work with a guy who had been hit by a car and was in a coma for 6 months, he told everyone that he had also smoked crack for years before the coma and used to be a in a gang where he was called Blood Drop (Dude looked like Joe Dirt). He would walk up and down the aisles gobbling like a Turkey.
Well, his own daughter reported in a right wing newspaper that frequently did friendly interviews with him that he still had trouble walking and typing on his own weeks after he came out of the coma, and that was before he got covid in Serbia while she was dating Andrew Tate. It makes perfect sense that he's not been quite the same since then. Would also explain why he quit academics afterwards.
The academia part is a good point. He had some performative objection to wokeness or something, but I don't care if my coworkers are axe murderers, you're not going to make me leave a 6 figure tenured job.
Yeah, he claimed he left because his poor wittle students are all discriminated against for beign white cishet dudes (kinda telling on himself that only white cishet dudes want to write their doctoral thesis under JBP), but i'm not buying that. He's got his cult following, he's got his job at the daily wire, these are things he can pull off even after all the damage he sustained during his detox desaster. But making sure that the docotoral thesises of his alt-right weirdo students are accepted? Holding up in a classroom when students decide to go Zizek on his ass? I think that'd be a big ask for him nowadays.

Benzo addiction will FUCK your shit up. I would not be the LEAST bit surprised if this was the case here.
