every extreme action eventually triggers a counter reaction

2018-03-05 03:44:43 UTC  

just how being right wing is counter culture and cool

2018-03-05 03:44:48 UTC  

as well as christians

2018-03-05 03:44:54 UTC  

I never thought this was possible

2018-03-05 03:45:06 UTC  

The tricky part is, we have to keep the alt-right under control

2018-03-05 03:45:14 UTC  

btw

2018-03-05 03:45:20 UTC  

let's define alt-right

2018-03-05 03:45:31 UTC  

because I still use the early definition

2018-03-05 03:45:49 UTC  

technically, anything right of Stalin is "alt-right"

2018-03-05 03:46:03 UTC  

Not really, grenade.

2018-03-05 03:46:21 UTC  

alt-right was just alternative anti-establishment right. Usually online people with no power that didn't agree with the usual right in power

2018-03-05 03:46:37 UTC  

Let's define that more, then.

2018-03-05 03:46:41 UTC  

I think that's the misconception of what it was originally thought to be.

2018-03-05 03:46:42 UTC  

personally, i'd put nazis, socialist, and communists on all the same side. But maybe that side is up or down rather than left or right

2018-03-05 03:46:48 UTC  

The term actually WAS coined by Richard Spencer

2018-03-05 03:46:55 UTC  

nowadays the left redefined it to white supremacist

2018-03-05 03:47:01 UTC  

the term was popularized during this last election to mean that

2018-03-05 03:47:02 UTC  

Popularized by... was it Milo?

2018-03-05 03:47:15 UTC  

and all it took was someone else to mention it

2018-03-05 03:47:22 UTC  

for Richard Spencer to suddenly become relevant

2018-03-05 03:47:22 UTC  

naw, they redefined white supremacist is anything or any one who disagrees with them

2018-03-05 03:47:29 UTC  

the term meant /pol/

2018-03-05 03:47:41 UTC  

no concrete ideas

2018-03-05 03:47:59 UTC  

white supremacy was part of it, but didn't define it

2018-03-05 03:48:08 UTC  

I'd disagree.

2018-03-05 03:48:44 UTC  

Even if it DID mean anything else, Alt-right has been sullied anyway.

2018-03-05 03:48:53 UTC  

I'd fight the Left over words

2018-03-05 03:48:54 UTC  

there is two definitions of alt-right. What the left thinks it is, and what everyone accused of being alt-right things its is

2018-03-05 03:49:05 UTC  

but pulling words back from the alt-right won't do us any good.

2018-03-05 03:49:20 UTC  

to the left, anything right of Stalin is "alt-right"

2018-03-05 03:49:55 UTC  

The fact is that the alt right is hard to discern, between their figureheads and the trolls that are out just to get a rise out of people. It gives off the impression that they're not serious, and if they are not taking their beliefs that seriously, why should anyone else?

2018-03-05 03:50:25 UTC  

I believe Alt-Right begins with anyone presenting as being 'right', but in support of an ethnostate.

2018-03-05 03:50:26 UTC  

it's like ppl don't know 4chan

2018-03-05 03:50:44 UTC  

I don't agree

2018-03-05 03:51:05 UTC  

I'm willing to bet MSM didn't know what 4chan and /pol/ where and took them seriously

2018-03-05 03:51:06 UTC  

alt-right doesn't necessarily support an ethnostate

2018-03-05 03:51:15 UTC  

typical old people not understanding the internet

2018-03-05 03:51:39 UTC  

I thought they were nationalists that believed since every race has it's own "state" in the world, then that would include white people as well. I don't even think I've heard many self-described alt-righters claim to be "supremecist", so much as just acknowledging that there are racial differences.

2018-03-05 03:51:41 UTC  

Belial

2018-03-05 03:51:56 UTC  

but they do acknowledge the problems of open borders and "white genocide"

2018-03-05 03:52:02 UTC  

in much the same way that I once would've considered myself a feminist, and a humanist
