Ep 105 The Dangerous AA Lie That Jordan Peterson Repeated

Jordan Peterson once helped me break free from AA's ideological grip.But in this viral clip from Theo Von’s podcast, he repeats dangerous myths about Alcoholics Anonymous — calling it “psychologically intelligent” and denying the harm it causes.So today, we're unpacking this AA propaganda in real time — from coerced confessions to forced religious conversion, and the global indoctrination that keeps people stuck in a cult disguised as recovery.This isn’t about bashing Jordan or Theo — it’s about calling out misinformation that gets millions of people trapped in high-control systems. Let’s critically think together.⏱️ Timestamps:00:00 – Intro Jordan Peterson on Alcoholics Anonymous01:32 – Theo Von: 12 Steps Not Working?02:52 – AA Alternatives?
