Slapping the alt-right label on anyone who criticizes far-left identiarian politics doesn't have the shaming effect you hope it does. Quite the opposite. If people who don't follow politics all that closely watch a Peterson clip and then see him labelled as alt-right, they're going to come to the conclusion that alt-right is pretty benign, common-sense stuff. And then you'll remove the stigma from the genuine alt-right movement. Which probably isn't what you want.
