The Alt-Right

[Perianne]

People have twisted the original meaning of the "alt-right" so much that any discussion of it is meaningless, yet here I am attempting a discussion of it.

About a year and a half ago, I read this this and found that I readily agreed with the alt-right. It is a long read and probably no one will read it.

Now I think anyone on here would probably consider me as leaning right, but not extremely so. So, if I can agree with the original meaning of "alt-right", then most anyone else should be able to (except for leftist types).

I cringe nowadays when I read or hear about the "alt-right", as what the alt-right means today is not what it meant before President Trump was elected.

If the link I provided is not an accurate description of the alt-right, someone please define it more accurately.

That article distinguishes the alt-right from skinheads etc and that is correct. Originally the alt-right was people like Milo Yiannopoulos and Razib Khan, both mentioned in the article. Their purpose was largely to trigger feminists, gays, and other social justice warriors. The liberal media however twisted into identification with skinheads, neo_Nazis, etc.

It was a good - though loooooong - description of the alt-right.

BTW, this is the white nationalist Razib Khan.

And Milo Yiannopoulos is a homosexual who prefers black partners.

And Ben Shapiro is Jewish and wheres a Yammaka.

O! the ironies!!


So they were not against blacks, gays, females, etc, but against a certain type of politics.

Isn't Richard Spencer the one who is credited with creating the mantle "Alt Right"?

It's not his politics. Khan acknowledges the biological utility of the race concept and he is quoted by "white nationalists". Worse still, his comments about IQ are most troubling.
