"The second segment of the AIN [(Alternative Influence Network, who belong politically to classicial liberalism)] include people in what we describe as the \Skeptic"community. These include people like Carl Benjamin (\Sargon of Akkad"), formercandidate for European Parliament; Jordan Peterson, known for his opposition to abill adding gender expression and identity as protected under the Canadian HumanRights Act; and Dave Rubin, a former a liate of the progressive Young Turks. This segment of the AIN agrees, in principle, with most liberal values, and often \Skeptics"say they used to consider themselves part of the mainstream left. Where Skepticsde ne themselves in contrast to the mainstream left is through opposition to certainpractices, namely explicit appeals to marginalized racial and gender identities and theuse of no-platforming against far-right speakers. However, unlike further-right segmentsof the AIN, they also strongly criticize the far-right for its own use of identity politicsto bolster white supremacy."
