It's also possible that a fifth column of Leftists are trying to channelize everyone else into the easiest possible target to hit. "Look, it's okay, just say that the Left is right about you and that you're a Nazi tee hee".
Maybe, but I doubt that. Seems like it would be a strategic blunder to normalize the jewish question. Especially among blacks.
Blacks haven't stopped asking the JQ in 50 years, that's why the entire issue hurts Kanye with white people only.
But this whole sequence of events has really soured me on if the alt-right can be trusted in any regard. It seems like they are operating as a fifth column to destroy populism entirely. As if the Left realized that they can't have David Koch come in and butcher the Tea Party, so they need to have people come in and kill the populist movement by associating it with unpalatable things.
What even is the alt-right? Are we talking about say, the Dave Duke/Richard Spencer types? Fuentes and the groypers? The closest equivalent label I can think of would be "dissident right" but it's less a concrete group and more simply anything that isn't leftist or con/neocon.
Asking purely because I've seen "alt-right" fall out of use among rightists. If anyone still uses it it's the leftists. Maybe I'm nitpicking.
Alt right used to mean anyone on the right who wasn’t a traditional mainstream Republican, built upon the ashes of the tea party movement. Then the leftist mainstream media started painting the alt right as a bunch of while supremacists. Around the same time, the MAGA/America First movement started picking up so most people in the alt right moved over to that. The only people who stuck around with the alt right moniker were people who were openly racist like Richard Spencer. And so the alternative right is basically a dead movement save a handful of white nationalists within it.
Yes.
Alt-Right is really a term that those types actually invented for themselves. Richard Spencer was actually one of the biggest advocates of the term, and he really was kind of seen as the leader of the alt-right in that early 2015 time period.
The reason the term has basically fallen out of use is because the alt-right as a force basically fucking collapsed.
Then let's wake more people up and make it palatable.
The thing is, it's correctly unpalatable because it's just another marxist meta-narrative, except applied to race.
