I talk to them regularly
Maybe I'll try to put an application out on Twitter or Facebook
Maybe people write articles
and I read them
Keep them around for a while
@ExceptionalFeather I can't tell you not to use wikipedia, and it's got some use.
But do be aware of it's limitations and don't just assume what you read is necessarily accurate. Particularly if names or something seem to start flying or the people who are discussed in an article protest.
But yeah these are possible issues
It's ultimately better to do your own extensive research on politics in many cases and balance sources.
I think I should start with the basics first
Design the site
lol. @Deleted User you've got odd friends.
But if it seems to work.
Hey, they're interesting people
The psychopath is a conservative
@pratel I don't assume any source is outright accurate
It's always more fun to have interesting friends than normal friends. I cannot lie.
And the other guy is Frank Smytt
@pratel I just think it gets underused because people think that it is mostly inaccurate
He's one of the original members of the alt right, before the neo Nazis and white nationalists took over
He's a black guy btw
In my experience, Wikipedia is heavily overused. It's too easy to use and puts so much at the top that people don't read past it that much. Plus Google and Bing put it right at the top in a special box.
Alt lite seems to be a prejorative
it may have been used that way just like liberal or conservative
"I want to tell people this person is alt right, but I can't, so...."
From what I understand Alt-lite is an attempt to rebrand after Charlottesville.
some accept it to be alt-right minus the identity politics
On tumblr alt lite is a nazi dogwhistle
So there's that
On tumblr everything's a Nazi dogwhistle.
It's a prejorative
You guys know contrapoints, right?
The tranny youtuber?
She made a video about Nazi dogwhistles
And every single one applies to her
It's hilarious
In fact one of the dogwhistles was "Denying that they are fascist"
I don't see the point of alt lite tbh
I've never seen anyone self identify as it
It seems to be applied to people like Lauren Southern and Rahim Kassam
And even Majid Nawaz
