Jordan Peterson Holds Back Tears Responding to Olivia Wilde 'Incel ... (Newsweek)

The controversial psychologist appeared to get emotional when discussing the "hero to the incel community" label given to him by film director Wilde.

"And how easy it is to provide that if you're careful." "Go look at an incel reddit page then come back to me saying we should empathize with incels instead of reprimanding them for being abusive." "It's really something to see, constantly, how many people are dying for lack of an encouraging word?" But all these men who are alienated, they're lonesome and they don't know what to do, and everyone piles abuse on them." "These men, they don't know how to make themselves attractive to women, they're very picky and good for them. Peterson was discussing the comments in an interview with Piers Morgan on British TV.

Jordan Peterson recently became emotional while talking to journalist Piers Morgan about Olivia Wilde's 'insane' comments.

Demand high standards from your man. That’s your gift, man. But all these men who are alienated it’s like, they’re lonesome and they don’t know what to do and everyone piles abuse on them,” he said explaining his position on the subject. [Piers Morgan Uncensored](https://twitter.com/PiersUncensored/status/1574850110239948800), and shared his views on Olivia’s “insane” comments. Olivia’s Interview Magazine chat with Maggie Gyllenhaal came out in early September. Jordan began to get emotional and said “I thought the marginalized were supposed to have a voice?,” as he became visibly more emotional. [Merrian Webster](https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/incel)‘s dictionary defines the term as “a person (usually a man) who regards himself as being involuntarily celibate and typically expresses extreme resentment and hostility toward those who are sexually active.” [National Post](https://nationalpost.com/news/exclusive-jordan-peterson-hits-back-at-director-olivia-wilde-over-this-insane-man-comments), the clinical psychologist said, “Now, (Chris) has a reputation as quite an attractive man … Listing his credentials, Jordan further said, “I am, currently — just to set the record straight — professor emeritus at the University of Toronto, which among those not pseudo-intellectual themselves still constitutes professor and a member there of a department of psychology which is in the top 15 such departments worldwide.” The mother of two said, “We based that character on this insane man, Jordan Peterson, who is this pseudo-intellectual hero to the incel community.” [Interview Magazine](https://www.interviewmagazine.com/film/olivia-wilde-needs-to-be-in-charge), that Chris’ character was based on an ” insane man, Jordan Peterson, who is this pseudo-intellectual.” Doubling down on her comments, the 38-year-old director said, “And they believe that society has now robbed them—that the idea of feminism is working against nature, and that we must be put back into the correct place.”

Jordan Peterson Breaks Down in Tears When Asked About Olivia ... (Variety)

Olivia Wilde based Chris Pine's character in "Don't Worry Darling" off Jordan Peterson.

“I thought, ‘I’d go see that movie.’ and perhaps I will,” Peterson said. After calling Peterson a “hero to incel community,” Wilde described incels as “disenfranchised, mostly white men, who believe they are entitled to sex from women. Peterson told Morgan that he wasn’t too offended by Wilde’s comment (it was a “low-level” insult, he said). Wilde called Peterson “this pseudo-intellectual hero to the incel community.” But all these men who are alienated, it’s like they’re lonesome and they don’t know what to do and everyone piles abuse on them.” These men, they don’t know how to make themselves attractive to women who are very picky, and good for them.

Did Olivia Wilde Just Make Jordan Peterson Cry? (The Cut)

Jordan Peterson responded to Olivia Wilde's claim that she based the villain in 'Don't Worry Darling' on him. In an interview with Piers Morgan, ...

[incel](https://www.thecut.com/2019/05/incel-plastic-surgery.html) is a term that originated from the phrase involuntary celibacy. It was, according to [the Guardian](https://www.theguardian.com/world/2018/apr/25/woman-who-invented-incel-movement-interview-toronto-attack), coined by a woman before it was co-opted by men online who used the term to create a violent movement. Four years later, in 2018, [Alek Minassian](https://www.thecut.com/2018/04/what-is-incel-rebellion-toronto-van-attack-alex-minassian.html) drove a van into a crowd of pedestrians in Toronto, killing ten people. So sad, in fact, that he was brought to tears during a recent interview on [Piers Morgan Uncensored](https://variety.com/2022/film/news/jordan-peterson-cries-olivia-wilde-incel-hero-dont-worry-darling-1235388024/). It’s not the first time Peterson has appeared more concerned with the supposed abuse directed at “alienated” men than the violence they instigate. “But all these men who are alienated, it’s like they’re lonesome, and they don’t know what to do, and everyone piles abuse on them.” “These men, they don’t know how to make themselves attractive to women who are very picky, and good for them,” he told Morgan. In 2014, [Elliot Rodger](https://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-elliot-rodger-incel-20180426-story.html) killed six people in the UCSB college town of Isla Vista. And certainly many young men are in that category,” he continued. “And you get these casual insults. “Now, what a terrible thing to do — that is, talk to marginalized [people] who are supposed to have a voice.” He then got emotional and began to tear up. [Jordan Peterson](https://www.thecut.com/2018/11/jordan-peterson-video-on-all-beef-diet.html) is apparently very sad that Olivia Wilde based the [Don’t Worry Darling](https://www.thecut.com/2022/09/dont-worry-darling-stepford-wives-film-analysis.html) villain on him.

After Morgan asked if it’s fair to describe Peterson as a hero to men who are “despicable in many ways,” the guest replied, “Sure, why not. In her interview, published online earlier this month, Wilde called Peterson “this insane man” who is a “pseudo-intellectual hero to the incel community,” referring to men who identify as involuntarily celibate and are known to express negativity toward women on platforms including Reddit. But all these men who are alienated, they’re lonesome, and they don’t want to do, and everyone piles abuse on them.” I thought I would go see that movie, probably, and perhaps I will. Well, these men, they don’t know how to make themselves attractive to women, who are very picky. “When Olivia Wilde made those comments, the first thing I did was go look at the preview for her movie, which I quite liked. He continued, “It’s very difficult to understand how demoralized people are, and certainly many young men are in that category. [much-debated film](https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/harry-styles-spitting-dont-worry-darling-venice-1235212785/) that also stars Harry Styles and Florence Pugh, Peterson quipped, “He’s a very good-looking man, and so that seems all right.” Peterson went on to tell Morgan that he wasn’t particularly bothered by Wilde’s comments. During her previous sit-down with Maggie Gyllenhaal for Interview, Wilde said that incels are “disenfranchised, mostly white men, who believe they are entitled to sex from women.” She added that Peterson “is someone that legitimizes certain aspects of their movement because he’s a former professor, he’s an author, he wears a suit, so they feel like this is a real philosophy that should be taken seriously.” People have been after me for a long time because I’ve been speaking to disaffected young men — what a terrible thing to do, that is.” After a long pause in which his eyes appeared to well up with tears, Peterson said, “I thought the marginalized were supposed to have a voice.” And you get these casual insults: ‘These incels.’ What does that mean?

Kelly predictably paired her defense of Peterson with a rant about how hard it is to be a man in America these days.

Olivia Wilde Comments on Jordan Peterson: Who Is the Man She ... (Newsweek)

Peterson recently cried on television while discussing how the "Don't Worry Darling" director called him the "pseudo-intellectual hero to the incel ...

He became recognized outside the intellectual community due to his controversial views on transgender rights, which he laid out in a series of YouTube videos in 2016. His public stature began to grow as a result, and Peterson was soon a well-known intellectual. Peterson is a media personality known for his conservative views on issues, but he once was simply known as a clinical psychologist and a professor. One especially notorious incident from 2016 came when Peterson was filmed speaking to transgender students. Morgan had asked Peterson about the Don't Worry Darling director calling him the "pseudo-intellectual hero to the incel community" in Interview magazine, and Peterson responded by tearing up and saying, "You know people have been after me for a long time because I've been speaking to disaffected young men." Peterson soon stood out for his books, writing the bestsellers Maps of Meaning: The Architecture of Belief, Beyond Order: 12 More Rules for Life and 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos.
