The Alt-Right Is What Happens When Society Marginalizes Men
The Federalist ^ | March 21, 2017 | Professor Owen Strachan

Posted on 03/21/2017 8:33:04 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

Various journalists have helped form a narrative of sorts about the identity of this shadowy, boisterous alt-right movement. The alt-right is childish and vicious, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing other than the message-board histrionics of aggrieved young men in their parents’ basement.

From what I can see, this narrative does apply to a degree. Where various alt-right voices have articulated ethnocentrism, outright racism, misogyny, decadence, and a kind of juvenile hatred, among other vile stances, we should offer condemnation in no uncertain terms....

“Where various alt-right voices have articulated ethnocentrism, outright racism, misogyny, decadence, and a kind of juvenile hatred, among other vile stances, we should offer condemnation in no uncertain terms...”

That more accurately describes the media and liberal establishment as we see parading across our TV screens on a daily basis. Has this guy ever visited Huff Po, The Daily Beast, or the Democratic Underground? That’s were you see all that he has attributed to the alt-right, except that for them anti-white racism is substituted for ethnocentrism.

I’ve never seen the outright misogyny directed at liberal women that can come close to what Pailin faced. Misogyny is acceptable to the left as long as it’s directed at right-leaning women.

Racism of low expectations and a desire to see continued failure is what the Democrat party is all about. They seek to divide and conquer. That’s why there were constant Obama victim mentality focused stories of fake hate crimes after Trump won.

What you get when more men realize that dating and marriage are a scam, are men going their own way and mens' rights activists. They simply walk away from the plantation that is dating and marriage, and never partake in it. Some have been burned by divorce, some have seen friends or family members be burned.

Why would anyone bother when, on a woman's word alone without any evidence at all, would put his life on the line when all she has to do is say "rape" or "abuse" and his life gets ruined?

The alt-right is the left’s Emanuel Goldstein, the target for their 2-minute hate.

The term alt right is a manufactured bogeyman term. We should not accept the introduction of a vague term that will be defined by its worst elements and then applied broadly to as wide of a spectrum if people as possible. Give this made up word no quarter..

Yup, that's certainly how journalists have painted the alt-right.

Except that it's not true. Like everything else the left portrays the right as being.

“Give this made up word no quarter.”

Yes; even using it to discredit it gives the word viability. Ignore it — like “Kwanzaa”.

The professor should attend our Friday monthly meetings at the American Legion. It’s likely that he’s never met American men and women with military experience. He’d be crying and tearing off his donkey ears in less than five minutes.

Poor snowflake.
