I don't know if I buy that it's a cult or a religion. Peterson is trying to improve individuals in an ever-changing world. Perhaps in this world men are losing their way or feel left behind (rightly or wrongly). So he teaches men (mostly) to improve themselves and not be victims. In life you have two choices, you can be a leader or a victim. So take the lead and improve yourself everyday. If you're shy, say hi to the kiosk girl. It's their job to be friendly. If you're uncomfortable at parties or networking events just go there first to observe and then maybe talk to one person. Set small goals.
I don't know why there is such a backlash. And then there's a backlash to the backlash. He's not the only one doing this, just his language might be a bit stronger than others.
