He absolutely would if he thought he belonged to one of the out-groups to be persecuted. This fucker has shown no empathy towards others and has played a big part in the rise of fascism we're seeing today. He deserves no pity.

Everyone deserves some pity. If you don't think so then you really aren't a good person either.

everyone deserves some pity at some point, yes

Peterson has used his up, and he no longer deserves any

I think he should be treated the way he treated others. Seems fair to me.

This is why I was glad that Kirk was the victim of the political violence he championed rather than some innocent bystander.

When has he ever shown a single bit of empathy or remorse?

[–] ayyy@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 day ago

When it impacts him personally. Like every conservative.

It's the exception that proves the rule so there are a couple people who should remain without pity but Peterson isn't the one in my book.
