> he's started putting out much more alt-right content

Alt-right means white nationalist, and it shouldn't be confused with civic nationalism, which is something altogether different.

agreed, but he's done videos on "white genocide" and other alt-right talking points. He's certainly treading a thin line.
What are you talking about, what white genocide videos? Give me a source.

And if you believe in something "your enemy" also happens to believe in doesn't mean you are on a thin line. The World doesn't work that way, propaganda, especially political does on the other hand.

He's not my enemy, I used to be quite a big fan when his content was primarily about libertarianism. I just withdrew my defense of him that put him in the same position as Peterson because I feel that he has begun to court the alt right audience he has acquired. I'm on my phone right now but I'll grab links in a bit.
Sure, grab me a link. I like his lectures and ideas even though I don't have much in common. He's extremely reasonable man and a good symbol for conservatives. If you demonize him, you're against idiots. If all the conservatives would be a bit like him, we would live ina a better world.
