I'd agree that the alt-right are certainly distinct from Young Republicans

yeah this isn't about left wing or right wing

@devolved absorb the message, ignore the labels

and I agree that the alt-right is more anti-leftist than right wing

Absorb the semen

Come up with a different label then

Your average conservative dislikes and is wary of the alt-right

I know what you're trying to say

Kinda

good

Liberal is not the right word though

I don't want to believe it

find a better word

and I'll use it

K

We need this though

have to avoid value judgements immediately otherwise we trap our thinking

openness makes sense

or radical oriented

yeah

they are radicals

that's a good word

This is our Alt-right

I wouldn't be surprised if the alt-right had elements of 2000's era anarchism in its ranks

may be more palatable than liberal

Open

Don't you try to take it from us

Open minded

not descriptive enough

openness to experience is not open mindedness

it's a distinct measurable trait of personality

your average alt-right would have been basically anti-racist or a-racist

and turned due to feeling betrayed somehow

like for example the Trayvon episode

or discovering that IQ is a real thing

@Nester took the pic

waiting to see if chat approves it

as some psychologists have theorized, conservatives tend to be higher in conscientioiusness while liberals tend to be higher in openness

If chat approves it?

in that sense, the alt-right can be attractive to "liberals"

Haidt is one of those

actually his work is the only thing that matters in this realm, no one is even close

his book should be required reading for anyone interested in the alt-right

it's also short, written in a nice conversational style and google-able

it's called The Righteous Mind

@Exilarch

That isn't your face

@devolved you haven't read this have you

Also, you don't have to post a face pic here if you don't want others to see.

I can't read that well fallot

You can pm me it.

Oh you mean devolved, sorry

here are my lentils http://i.imgur.com/OBKBYfF.png

@Kalvin you should read it too

Still no face pics.

not a bad try with the swastika

What gives, @Exilarch ?

they don't use their bare hands for it

unless it's a huge pan or something

Is that raw chilli powder on top?

they pour them on

with a scoop or something

no it's paprika

Phew

although I make pretty spicy food

I prefer pepper flake

or wasabi

@fallot Thanks for the link

@Exilarch

I've taken a face pic to show you

Show me a face pic

pm me if you don't want others to see.

Nope @fallot

@Nester show

But have probably read summaries

Check irc, @fallot

Is this the purity/disgust thing

Yes

yes @devolved

I mean No

Oh

Are you now on your phone, @fallot ?

you see how exquisitely white and perfect my skin is?

it's pretty amazing

he used to have this 7 part youtube video of his lecture @devolved

I am so lucky

Yes, @Exilarch

You are white.

I didn't doubt that.

but then he got big and now there are so many of those videos

that I can't find the originals

but if you want

you can just watch a youtube video

of his lecture

that's the core ideas

I wanted to see your face, @Exilarch

the book is great though, important
