I never realized that there was an "ALT Right"

Nor did I. Apparently a lefty construct out of nowhere, a new bogeyman. Much like the infant "Global Warming" now known as Climate Change. From the party of MSU, Make Stuff Up.

The alt-right is made up of Jew-hating garbage. Trump doesn't need them.

How they are any worse than the atheists and materialists who make up the Left is beyond me.

Not just Twitter; rumblings about the interwebs that Facebook is eyeballing similar tactics.

And then I’d expect Google et. al. to engage in some of this Stalinist censorship, as well.

BOTTOM LINE: We don’t OWN any of those platforms, so stopping censorship becomes a game of “Who’s gonna make me?”

Yeah, Facebook is publicly traded; it’s not Zucchini’s private universe, but how to leverage that into a successful anti-discrimination effort in the legal realm is the problem, and they know it. They know there are precious few who have the money to even begin something like that, and even fewer — perhaps none — who actually will.

So there they are; them and their impunity.

The reason that FR exists is because it got pushed out of the corporate cyberworld. Most conservative sites have to live on their own.
If Twitter pushes out the right-wing, it just shrinks Twitter’s market share. When all the media sites are singing the same song, you really only need one of them.

“The alt-right is made up of Jew-hating garbage. “

YOU are the Alt-right in the eyes of the media because you are here. Alt-right simply means “bad”.

Most alt-right is Christian. If you’re hating on them, we can’t help that.

When I click on something and see it's an LSM authored article, it already loses credibility right off the bat. Then if I decide to give it a whirl anyway, for kicks and giggles, usually the first paragraph, often the first sentence, is so discrediting, that I just chuck it, never having clicked to the originating site anyhow. 😕

Soon people won't even go looking at LSM sites for content for the same reason.

It's so wonderful when an alternate site is well written, thoughtful and honest. It means our options for news and commentary are wide open and growing daily.

No but they can force away the supporters until all that is left is detractors and trolls.

Anyone can create a Twitter clone.

you’re dealing with someone who has a weed about Christians, who is absolutely convinced they all wish Jews to hell.

No, you don’t HAVE to have them. Why would anyone believe anything they say after THIS election? Anyone who uses them or posts them for info is carrying their water for them and against us.

I will alert on all I see and post on that article thread that it is not a legitimate, truthful source. Those who continually post from those sites will be viewed with suspicion and alerted on.

I keep MYSELF out of any echo chamber by doing my own research and weighing the news I see.

Some of our younger generation of conservatives call Alt-Right, the Free Republic for conservative millennials.

Different paths/roads to minimizing the liberals, who try to control their lives and our lives with the insane liberal dogmas.
