Via Boing Boing:
Marvel's beloved supervillain, Red Skull, is posed as a comically reactionary lifestyle guru in his latest comic-book incarnation, authored by Te Nahesi Coates. Jordan Petersen, the comically reactionary lifestyle guru, regards it as a parody of him specifically, and is mad about it online.
"It's pretty funny that Jordan Peterson is complaining that the Nazi Supervillain Red Skull sounds like him," wrote Lily Simpson on Twitter.

Though Peterson presents himself as a free-speech absolutist, especially when it comes to the right to offend people, he is quite thin-skinned (as today's tweets confirm) and no stranger to litigation when it is he who is offended.

I know that we have a dedicated Peterson thread but I thought this warranted it's own. Also it's comics related. And y'know, seeing how being so close to death hasn't changed Peterson from his old bitter endlessly whiny man ways.

"Red Skull becomes a right-wing Youtuber" would have been seen as way too on the nose even a couple of years ago, but now...

Jordan Peterson is salty because the Red Skull in Ta-Nehisi's Captain America run is based on him

Recently our good old "intellectual" Peterson discovered that Ta-Nehisi in his Captain America Run used Peterson as a basis for the Red Skull. To the shock of no one Peterson is clueless why anyone would think he's like the Red Skull.
My bad.

Red Skull is Davis Aurini
Haven't heard that name in such a long time.

I don't know Jordan Petersons content well enough to make a good judgment, is there anything that makes it clear it is a parody of him specifically or is he seeing himself in this rendition of Red Skull?

The last thing would be even funnier to me.
