Don’t apologise for that, keep it coming.
These Richard Spencer and Peterson types are terrifying. They suit up and dress their regressive, hateful views in a modern and attractive package and that surely plays a big part in normalising their abhorrent views. Those people need to be called out and have that sheen ripped away.
Meanwhile, we get apologist pieces in the Guardian.

“Since when is Islam a race?”
Classic! By splitting hairs you have crushed me in the online debate just like Daddy Peterson would do.
Ok Sir, (that’s how Petersonati address people when CRUSHING them in debates) in the U.K. we put religious hatred and racial hatred in the same legal pot generally. Because the people doing the hate often draw ethnic and religious lines together in day to day life the terms are interchangeable. For example:When someone is accused of being anti Semitic, the assumption is that it’s jews in the spotlight not Semitic people such as Palestians.
If Peterson unknowingly posed for the picture with Mr Islamophobe, he then probably uploaded it to his website unknowingly and then unknowingly deleted it after the Christchurch Massacre.
The bit that makes me laugh so much about Peterson is his beef with Post Modernism (well his interpretation of Post Modernism) it’s like having a beef with the Gulf Stream or Magnetic North.
Sorry everyone I went down a Peterson rabbit hole about a year back, I have a lot of ammunition. I also find his popularity funny/terrifying /depressing
