Everyone who doesn't subscribe to identarian dogma - which I'd guess is at least 75 per cent of people - enjoy it when people like Peterson stand up to it. So yes, the alt-right are among the 75 per cent of people who get satisfaction from the discomfort of identarians.

What you don't seem to grasp, PsYcNeT, is that the worldview you regard as established fact embraced by most people is in fact an ideology held by only a fraction of people. It happens that those fraction of people are over-represented in the humanities and the media, so it has an outsized voice in our culture. Western society is not, en masse, embracing an ideology that only 10 years ago was confined to left-wing academics.

In our balkanized world of social media echo chambers, it can seem as though your tribe is the norm. But it's not.
