>>The alt-right is definitely a group that people are recruited into.

Wow. How easily that lie rolls off the tongue.

"The alt-right is definitely a group"

So much easier to vilify when abstracted into a "group" - rather than addressing specific ideological principles of THOSE...

...Individuals.

The alt-right is the alt-left.

The use of the term “Alt-Right” is an attempt to smear a non-racist movement with a bunch of Wacky Cracker KKK nut jobs.

The author of this article is fully aware that the Alt-Right was not in Charlottesville.

Here’s the problem.

“Alt-right” “movement”.

It is used as if (a) it is a monolith, (b) an “integrated movement” of “all alike minded” folks, and (c) universally racist, “White Supremacist” and bigoted.

It’s dishonest.

To, intellectually make that characterization of “Alt-Right”, then on that basis one could claim that given a dominance of Marxists on the podium at the “March on Washington in January”, the “movement” that represented was 100% Marxist and EVERYONE that went there was too.

Would the media and those writing for it ever use that one intellectually honest standard comparison? No.

Why. Their double standard and the agenda it serves.

White people having white babies is racist but we need to import millions of illiterate third world people who don’t speak English to signal our virtue. Got it.

Absolutely hilarious commentary.

For a while there I though good ol' Lucky9teen had reprised the Official Friday Silliness thread!

Some day soon it will be, ‘Christians took my son away!’.
Dumb is not recognizing tyranny.
Just because I am not a Nazi does not mean that they should not be allowed peaceful constitutionally allowed protest.
Just turn your back!
Dumb is not seeing how the tables can turn on you when you allow it to be turned on others.
Many will soon ask,”why didn’t we do something?”

He was a responsible kid. I mean, he would occasionally drink and smoke pot and stuff like that, but he wasn’t getting into trouble or anything.

He was getting into drinking and smoking pot, moron. and that was apparently OK with you so, with no disciplinarian in his life , instead an enabling mother.... who was there for him to respect?

Maybe his opinion of women was actually just his opinion of a weak mother?

It was founded by this guy Stefan Molyneux, who I later learned is a major figure on the alt-right. He spews horrible things. I heard him listening to the podcasts in his bedroom. My son started saying things like, If we could just get the Asians out of here it wouldn’t be so crowded.

IF, and that's a big if, the kid ever said anything like that he didn't get it from Stephan Molyneaux.

This reminds me of the self-obseesed, tattooed WaPo blogger who posted about her son a few weeks ago. She had raised indoctrinated him to be a "feminist."

The young man rebelled, straight into the arms of Breitbart.

From his tweets, it sounds like he was hanging around with neo-Nazis. It’s hard for me to believe. And then there’s a part of me that hopes he does something and gets caught because that’s one way to get him reformed.

That's genius lady...hope for him to get arrested and go to prison...that way MS-13 or The New Black Panthers or even Skinheads will get him all straightened out.

Sounds like this kid's biggest problem was growing up in this crazy lady's house.

Fake Azz Story.

Even if it were true then your son is an idiot and an amoral Fk. I’d disown him...

What didn’t you give him as a child he is now receiving as an adult.

You haven’t spoken with our son in 3 years but, you stalk him somehow enough to know his whereabouts?

Story is fake....

you even have an extension on your email enabling you track your son?

There are too many things wrong with this work of fiction.
