Basically all you need to do to understand that is to try to listen to his podcasts with Maryam Namazie or Omer Aziz. I just listened to his latest one, which is with Masha Gessen, who is pretty solidly left-leaning on basically every issue besides MeToo, but he has explained that when he has right leaning guests on - Peterson, Shapiro - he spends most of his time disagreeing with them, but the conversation proceeds in good faith. It's honest disagreement. That simply isn't the way much of the left does business these days... try watching him talk to Cenk if you need another example.
