Jordan Peterson has reportedly been suspended from Twitter following a post about transgender actor Elliot Page that broke the platform’s rules “against hateful conduct.”

Screenshots posted online show the tweet in question from the Canadian clinical psychologist’s account, which reads: “Remember when pride was a sin? And Ellen Page just had her breasts removed by a criminal physician.”

Page came out as transgender in 2020, announcing he would now be known as Elliot. Peterson, 60, is guilty of “deadnaming” the 25-year-old “Umbrella Academy” star, a source close to the Oscar-nominated actor told The Post.

Peterson, who joined the staff of conservative podcast outlet Daily Wire on Thursday, is infamous for his anti-trans stance. He once claimed on Joe Rogan’s podcast that being transgender is a result of a “contagion” and similar to “satanic ritual abuse.”

A rep for Twitter confirmed to The Post that Peterson’s tweet “violated the Twitter Rules on hateful conduct. The account owner will need to delete the violative Tweet before regaining full access to their account.”
