but is mainstream discourse really desired at this stage?
It doesn't matter what we call ourselves. We are the future. The wagons are circled.
I know I'm going to sound insane: but Spencer's insistence on going to the press resulted in a lot of bad
@JohnAtlas If you're IE, Spencer doesn't like you
yes it got the name out but there are... alternatives
Spencer accomplishment
I don't think the guy is the worst ever, but he's just too selfish too lead anything
And really, he does it to himself
Easy to hate on the guy but he used his name, face, and body to take hits all the way into this thing of ours and helped bring it to where it is now. You can debate how much but not whether he had a hand in it.
Remember guys, Spencer money if nothing else
In what way did he help?
Surely you jest, sir.
One day he'll have access to hundreds of millions if he doesn't already
we have three Micks in IE
I’m not standing up for him, but I don’t think he would ever say he dislikes all IE members. Maybe the leadership, but that’s between them. There doesn’t need to be so many divides within our movement. We need all of our people on the same side, working towards the same goals. Spencer has dedicated his life to the movement. He’s made some serious mistakes, and is definitely not leadership material at this point. I just don’t feel the need to ceaselessly criticize him
He lead a lot of people into antifa crowds at MSU
@ThisIsChris ask almost anyone who moved over in the past 5 years
I just think Spencer is a guy with a very impressive vision, but without the capacity to be The Leader. He will be honored and remembered as one of the early heroes who spoke out and acted. How many of us would have dared do and say what he has done and said.
Agreed.
@JohnAtlas He officially denounced IE and called us too middle class.
Exactly
He sees us not letting him lead us as shitting on him
Spencer also started an operation to ruin IE and make us go away
I don't look for enemies, but when they try to disband you....
Which spectacularly failed
Somewhat spectacularly, he did peel people off, but mostly people we were better off without. Cursed Eli at least.
Like 10 people
Am I the only one that enjoyed “Alt Right Politics” episodes?
I did as well
I will give Spencer credit for NPI which is a solid idea
@JohnAtlas I used to think the same way you did, but then I started talking to people in IE and the broader movement. Some of the stories I've heard of him would make anybody's skin crawl. There's a reason nobody wants to work with him.
executed less than good
@ThisIsChris And where are they now?
@Virgil Skin crawl? He's a womanizer. There are worse vices.
Who could trust a guy that seeks to eliminate teams on their own side?
I enjoyed the Altright.com podcasts with Conte, he actually had meaningful things to say from time to time
@Flint as far as I know, variously lost.
I feel bad for all of them
What a cruel fate
