Professional Skeptic Michael Shermer Accused of Being Alt-Right

Science writer and professor Micheal Shermer has come under attack in the social media world for consorting with beelzebub after writing his latest book “Give the Devil His Due.” Little known outside of the social bubble of conspiracy theorists and their detractors, Shermer has long gone after quacks and charlatans of every stripe.

“Why is he giving devils like Jordan Peterson a platform, unless he’s alt right?” questioned Chandra Newman, professor of literature at Mt. Hollins College in Oregon. Asked if she had read Shermers new book or any of his writings, she responded “Of course, what I read about him on Twitter.”

“I looked at the back cover and Jordan Peterson endorses the book. And Shermer gives a whole chapter to Jordan Peterson. Please,” complained Portland Antifa member and university student who goes by the moniker Raven Spartacus online and in the streets. “I’m keeping track of these apostates, so we can protest them,” stated Raven.

The blurb by Peterson actually starts by saying how tough it is to recommend Shermer’s book since it argues against his positions on psychology and politics. But Peterson claims, as Shermer does in his book, that we should spend time listening to those who disagree with us.

“I agree that we need free speech. Yeah, so all those ignorant right wingers will hear what the left has to say and learn something. Hopefully they’ll change their position,” argued Portland actor Mildren Englesh.

“You shouldn’t give a platform to the purveyors of hate. People will become racists and transphobes, just like Peterson,” urged the local thespian and sous chef who cannot work until the liberal establishment rescinds the lockdown order.
