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.
