People use this rhetorical technique all the time. They do it on social media, they do it in interviews and we do it on here. When Peterson reacts, he's doing so because he sees this nonsense as needless devision.

Edited to add: I'm not about to become alternative Right but I'll continue to follow his very interesting views on life.
He's not Alt-right. He dislikes the alt-right as much as he does the progressive left.
