Fair enough, it’s just that the alt-right is a neo-reactionary extreme response to the cuckservatives’ corruption and submission to the Left. The alt-right is necessary and make many valid points. For exampke, for all of the reverence and awe afforded our founders and forefathers on sites like FR, they WERE in fact white nationalists and white supremacists; there’s no denying it, just read their own words and study history.

Balderdash. The founders were not racial extremists in the sense that most "white nationalists" and "white supremacists" are in the present day.

Every American knows that the ideal for this nation is an Egalitarian society with Liberty and Justice for all.

Inequality, Tribalism, and Party tendencies are something that have been seen as problematic since the earliest days of the Republic.

Conflating their views with the Founders' is an attempt by some to justify their extremism.

Views which tend towards racial bigotry are negative aspects of human character in any age and in any person, and glorifying the idea that some Founders, as sinful men, had some profound flaws and blind spots with regards to various prejudices, is not an excuse to make the same mistakes that they made, or to think so narrowly and hypocritically as they sometimes did.

One of the wonderful things about America is that the ideals of the Revolution were Bigger and more Perfect than the flawed men who fought for them and who helped pass them on to us to complete. Providence used the Founders as instruments of great change.

Vote Trump!
