I don't really like the guy and I think he's incoherent but I understand why he wouldn't bother denouncing anyone.
It's the same school of thought as Lauren Southern and the Molymeme. Their opponents are never going to listen to a denoucement and say "well I guess they aren't nazis so we can't ever accuse them of being nazis ever again"
Southern is way more likeable
But on this specific issue, she's probably the worst.
She never says *anything.*
That would distinctly bother the alt right.
In a way that feels like she avoids it on purpose.
Its not like the left would take her in if she did
Gavin very well may avoid it completely by accident.
She has said she's not with the alt right, but her friends are obviously
She's not going to denounce them
Like most political ideologies, some of their points are good ones
Her friends are..?
News to me. Whom?
Britney pettibone and her bf, the guy from europa
I don't understand how anyone who loathes identity politics can turn around participate in it themselves.
Being born in a place where my ancestors exterminated the natives I have some sympathy for native Europeans wanting to try to preserve their cultural identity and control of their nations.
I'm really getting sick of the term "cultural identity"
It feels like a term that can mean two very different things at a moment's notice.
And one of them is "race" quite sneakily.

Well, is it OK for say, the Cherokee to want to preserve their cultural identity?
No.
If it means race, no.
I love how the BBC criticised Hungary for closing their borders in interest of preserving their culture
I speak quite plainly on this subject. What couldn't you give to an adopted child?
Because its possible to, you yourself, have an identity and then not prescribe to a different identity so not want that one to usurp yours.
Does identity EVER have anything to do with ideas?
So the extermination of native American tribes is no different from Europe's past wars?

If the identity isn't an idea, then I don't give the slightest shit.
I think it always has to do with ideas. Because it has to do with culture... your ideas depend on your culture.
Well culture isn't just ideas
What else?
It's also traditions
Rituals
Well, yeah, but those are parts of an identity
How is that different?
Traditions and rituals are ideas.
Well
