“He was angry at God because women were rejecting him,” Mr. Peterson says of the Toronto killer. “The cure for that is enforced monogamy. That’s actually why monogamy emerges.”
Those are his words. Whether he is advocating for a government body to restribute sexual partners, or simply advocating for society to I dunno, do so on it's own, isn't really the point. Whether he means to or not (again it's remarkable how his use of vague language results in him claiming is being misinterpreted) the message he's getting across to incels is- it's not really your fault, it's those darn women who won't sleep with your that are to blame for your violent behaviors.
Look, there's a reason he's a huge hit with the incel crowd. He may not consider himself their ally, but they sure as **** do. It's the same sort of thing as Trump and white nationalists. He uses vaguely racist language and people like David Duke and Richard Spencer love him for it, but when Trump himself is called out, the rest of the right wing comes to his defense.
If I was a political leader and I started noticing a bunch of people wearing nazi arm bands coming to my rallies it might cause a moment of introspection about just what it is I'm accomplishing. And why it is that my message is attracting these unsavory types rather than repelling them. It's not so different with Peterson and the MRA Incel crowd.
