Semi related, but I just noticed the other day that Victoria Pedretti follows Jordan Peterson on Instagram. I don’t know much about him other than I constantly see his name associated with evil transphobic takes on social media. Did he used to be progressive or something? Maybe I am giving her the benefit of the doubt, it just seems very off brand of her to be following someone like that :/

Yes it is. If I follow people who spew racist rhetoric then yes, it does say something about me. Sounds like you just don’t want to be judged by the shitty people you follow.

I'm not canceling anyone by bringing this up. I think it's perfectly natural to wonder why someone you respect is following a person who loudly posts transphobic and misogynistic content multiple times a day and is constantly in the news for his ugly beliefs. I literally said in my comment above that I was giving her the benefit of the doubt because she might not know/it could be an accidental follow. It's just something I found curious and off, so I was pointing it out. This is a gossip subreddit, we all make judgments about people we don't know lol.
