It's never been a single group to me

Just a new name for WN tbh

When you have a toxic personality using the name for his own ends, and that personality implodes, along with events and institutions around him...it makes the term toxic.

Wood ape what the hell are you typing?

one of the worst tweets of 2018, appeared in pat's thread

It is amusing because every faction has decided to distance themselves from "alt-Right" branding, often for contradictory reasons. I.e. Carolyn Emmerick and her squad hates it for being to Christian and not Pagan enough, but the Helicopter Moms and the Orthodox Fascists hate it for being too Pagan and not Christian enough. The NatSocs say alt-Right was too "cucky" but then again the Pre-Box TWP became term-coiner Spencer's doomed enforcers, which led to a-R being understandably associated with 1.0 Hollywood NeoNazee WigNattery.

After C'Ville, MSU, cuck Box, Spencer's life imploding, such branding and marketing frustrations were perhaps inevitable.

IE does what IE does. IE is trying to be its own thing and that's for the best. Survival is the best proof of a correct path. So I support IE.

@ExternalPepsi I was responding to your question on aR as a term

Tl;dr

he gave a more elegant version of what i said.

:-p

@ExternalPepsi You need a tl;dr for three paragraphs? 😒

I can't help you.

Tl;dr

I think he means Too Lazy; didn’t read

tl;dr- just say you're Identitarian. aR could have been good if it weren't for some cartoonish characters.

No, Identitarianism is not just a rebranding of the alt-right

CA guys, this is a great opportunity for an action of some kind. CA Congressman levels the threat of nukes in response to a citizen that correctly identifies a potential CA gun grab as a precursor to war.

One explanation:
>Identitarianism is a movement which approaches the idea of an indigenous European identity from a non-racist, non-exclusionary, rational perspective. It recognizes the importance of European culture, history and values. It seeks to promote a pan-European ethnic consciousness and to protect the quintessential character of European society without oppressing or stigmatizing other ethnicities.

"alt-Right" never had a solid definition. So you are right, it isn't.

In other words, CA Congressman threatens to nuke American citizens to get their guns

In <#371705962224025610> we have the document "values before policy". My idea of the maximal wellbeing is one of changing our values and our culture. Reasoning is downstream from values, politics is downstream from culture. We've had ethnostates in the past and it didn't save us from where we are now because we lost the culture. We can't choose for ourselves because our values changed. My ideal is that our values and culture are in the right place. If that's the case we will outlast many iterations of ethnostates (as Europeans did for millenia). The political policies we advocate today are more importantly a device for us to communicate to the world the result of our values and the culture we want to instill. If someone asks why we want reduced immigration, it's because that policy reflects our values. If someone asks why we want to fight heroin and opioid use, it's because that policy reflects our beliefs. Explicit policy positions are an artistic expression of the values and culture we believe in.

"Follow this tyrannical law or accept that you'll be nuked by the federal government"

Also as a moderator I will go back soon and remove any statements that imply Identitarianism is a mere optics facade, such as saying it is merely a re-skinning of alt-right. It would be a condemnation of IE if it were true.

I never implied that.

Not sure if anyone implied it, just saying I will be going back and re-reading for that.

@ThisIsChris waaaaaay tl;dr

I write this because sometimes people want to rephrase things they've said. I also vague it as "whatever I find" because I've only been able to gloss over the conversation to maybe a closer look will reveal there's nothing to read. But it *is* a common misconception especially for new people so just trying to be sensitive to that.

In all seriousness tho these are good answers

My point is aR never had a solid definition. It was just a flimsy alliance (not even voluntary in many cases) of various factions and ideologies, IE/ Identitarianism being one. Enough disasters happened due to hedonistic people, every faction is splitting from it for their own reasons.

Such splitting and distancing in the long term is good, I think all agree and is the IE party line, no?

Would have to ask leadership if we were allies with the factions of the alt-right.

If we showed up at some of the same events and share a single issue in common that's not enough to make us allies, though maybe there was more to it than that I would ask @Reinhard Wolff what he thinks.

I am not saying allies now or even recently. Or even "alliance" in an amicable sense.

more like an involuntary grouping, in many senses put upon all the groups by media

There's legal reasons we want to be incredibly clear and precise in our chats about what our precise relationship is or isn't with other groups.

let me make my stance perfectly clear: I just want to grill for G*d sake

Better to not assert anything than to over assert, because something inaccurate that's said is more of an issue than something inaccurate by omission.

I'm not disagreeing with that.
But it is dishonest and insults everyones' intelligence to insist there was never some overlap in media, some individuals, events, etc.

The future is important.
