Interesting— thank you! I’ve always imagined it as being populated by the characters from South Park...
They will ask you what has Conservatism achieved? As they are fond of pointing out, Conservatism couldn't even conserve the “Ladies Room” for actual women.
Also, you may not have noticed this; but their is a very real, concerted campaign to at least marginalize and dis-empower Caucasians in this country. This campaign has accelerated under Obama. Some people are not going to go gently into that good night.
There’s no more Koch brothers to bash so in true Alinsky fashion they have to designate a common enemy to isolate and target. Same old tired playbook.
This is YOUNG, energetic, vibrant, creative--and they know --next stop is getting your head bashed in because you are white and in the wrong place at the wrong time.
This is existential for these kids. We have failed them. Huge.
Riri, if you've not already, you might wanna have a look here in addition to the Breitbart piece linked above:
cheers !
On it, FReeper Lurker says: FR was alt-right before there was one.
LOL !
Did you see this? I think you will very much enjoy.
It used to be called paleoconservatism, but that term has gone out of favor. As Milo Y. points out, there are some new elements in the movement, such as a segment doing/saying outrageous things for the lulz, and then the disgusting 1488ers. There was a small but outspoken group of antisemites in the old paleocon movement, and unfortunately they are still around.
Hillary’s devoting a whole speech to the AltRight’s support for Trump is like Trump’s spending AN HOUR on the fact that the CPUSA endorses Hillary.
No, it is quite real. But it only has perhaps 100,000 adherents in the US.
Paleoconservatives and Traditionalists are not alt-right any more than Gary Johnson is an actual libertarian. The alternative right is racialists and a mirror of cultural marxism. Paleo-conservatives were a traditionalist response to neoconservatives. But it is more than just a generational thing. Richard Spencer, Richard Hoste and many intellectuals of the alternative right oppose Classical Liberalism and Classical Conservatism. They are neo-reactionary romantics who look to proto-fascists like Evola, Corneliu Zelea Codreanu, and modern fascists like Aleksandr Dugin. These people are completely outside of the standard American political spectrum. They are not paleoconservatives and despise Russel Kirk.
Something they’re made up to pidgeon hole Americans.
Oh. Is that the ‘conspiracy’ that somehow forced Bill to diddle an intern?
Powerful conspiracy, that...
