I worked with someone who did their PhD with Jordan as their supervisor (or mentor of some kind... Not sure, but they would regularly be at his house, and work with him) at U of T. Ironically, my former colleague has some kind of job doing DEI research stuff at another university.
They said Jordan was extremely nice, helpful, and a total rockstar in their field (psychometrics).
He said he was pretty surprised to see his behaviour/demeanour over the years and suggested that he really didn't used to be "like this."
My theory is that fame/money affects people. You get surrounded by "yes people" and you're conditioned to behave/think in different ways when you have million-dollar book deals, speaking tours, etc.
You, conversely, have an army of people who despise you that's just as loud as the people who love you...
