Thoughts on the Alt-Right?

Where's the f*cking poll?

If one of the choices is Alt-Right = World Record Assholes that's the one I pick!

The "Alt Right" as boogeyman is a fabrication by the tard left. Leftists have one play in their playbook. Their play has nothing to do with improving national security, jobs, improving the country, etc. Their one play...shriek "racism/sexism____ism!!!" at the top of their lungs and appeal to their mindless sheep followers.

Ah, irony. I love it.

They didn't go anywhere. The novelty of their existence is over is all. The emergence of a highly bigoted and xenophobic mindset is complete and we've come to accept that this is the new reality we have to contend with.

Your definition of reality is that people who elected Obama twice by significant margins all the sudden became racists? Hmmmm...I don't think you understand what reality means.

The Alt-right never seemed like a "big" movement to begin with. Aside from a few extreme cases that garnered a bunch of attention, they haven't really shown up much at all.

They've never numbered more than a few thousand, 20K at the most.

As told by a member of the "alt-left".

One play in their playbook. Taking whining about leftists away from you would be like making a Frenchman sit on his hands- instant speechless.
What do you think, is the word monotonous related to mono tone?

Perhaps thats because 23 of the 25 topics on any given page are ridiculous mindless drivel posted by leftists. Maybe?

I mean...have you ever stopped and just gone down the front page and READ the titles of the threads? 6 threads on Conways Microwave comment. 4 on Melania or Ivanka. 4 or 5 at any given time on Russia. 6 threads on Carsons slave /immigrant comment that apparently he stole from Obama's address 2 years prior. I mean...thank goodness for the NFL, the Top 100 guitarists, and the budget.

Not at all. I'm genuinely curious.

Even the SPLC, which has a ridiculously broad definition of hate group and who is a "white nationalist" or "white supremacist," lists fewer than 900 groups, and most of those have maybe a dozen members.

Keep in mind, for example, that the Westboro Baptist Church (which I wouldn't consider "alt-right"), for all the noise they make, consists of about 30 people.

The Left's first reaction is, "Russians, racist, homophobe and you're stupid". You might want to get your homies in check. :lamo

Riiight. And the right whingers here are so thoughtful and even-handed and careful about their self-expression.

Heh, bet you never had any problems with the garbage threads started by the right during Obama's eight years. But now suddenly anything that involves attacking your political party or your garbage president, suddenly the threats are "mindless leftists drivel". The irony is...amusing.

Yeah, just read your post above and tried to delete mine but I'm having issues with the site.
That whole 'alt dot' thing takes me back to the Usenet days, when groups were sorted into hierarchies. Most of my input was in the 'alt' hierarchy. It (the alt thing) was no comment on content, just meant it was accessible and unmoderated.
