We are NOT "Alt-right"
Vanity | Pietro

Posted on 08/26/2016 7:14:09 AM PDT by Pietro

Freepers, we should not allow ourselves to be labeled w/ this recently coined phrase-its a trap!

We are Americans. Period.

The msm slimes will use this label to try and tie us to the most vile and despicable elements out there.

Reject it immediately.

Hillary tagged Breitbart and Bannon as Alt-Right on her speech yesterday, if you are going to ban the phrase then no Breitbart articles will be able to be posted here.

And.....Hillary Wins.

Yes,there are disgusting corners of Alt-Right, they are the BlackLivesMatter of the Right....they were triggered by BLM, Social Justice Warriors, Islamic Terrorists, Feminists.

But there’s also many who are Alt-Right-ish sympathizers, not the dark corners of the web, for the mere fact that they aren’t GOPe - RINOS.

Hillary opined about her vision of what ‘real Conservatives’ are....her vision is RINOS and GOPe.

That’s her narrative
That’s the MSM narrative

We are not RINO’s or GOPe’s, so where do we go from here?

I am not going to wear any label that someone else has designed.

I agree with you. When you let them define and then use their narrative, you lose.

I also agree. A week ago, nobody had ever heard of this term. I'm guessing Hillary's team sat in a room somewhere and brainstormed ideas for a new label to use against Hillary's political opponents, and came up with this. I'm thinking that Hillary is using the race card now because she's scared to death that the black community just might start thinking Trump has a point when he talks about the way Democrats have played blacks for fools over the years.

Reject it!

My instincts tell me you correct to reject the Alt-Right Label.

But I'm not quite ready to do so.

Caution is advised of course but we may find some friends along the way.

So keep reading and keep in mind that when Hillary attacks something there may be more good there than bad. Alt-Right is, after all, presumably a conservative movement.

And it has Milo Yiannopoulos of Breitbart beating the Alt-Right drum. Milo works for Stephen K. Bannon, the chairman of the Breitbart News website who is Trumps new Campaign Chief Executive. For me this is an important connection.

So my recommendation is to listen for bit before making a pronouncement.

I’ve never heard of this in my entire life until the last two days.

They’ve made it up out of thin air.

You really don't get out much, do you?

Often I refer to myself as “simply an old-fashioned Christian gentleman,” which is bad enough.

Be aware. Even if our allies are using the term.
Reject it!

I totally agree. Even if you like the way it sounds and even if you are Alt Right...its a trap!

You have to think like your average dum dum on the internet..they hear Alt-right and then do a Google search...you have heard of Google,right? Not exactly conservative. Ditto Wikipedia.

Check out Wiki definition. Its as if the DNC wrote it themselves. very single one of their “references” is from a left wing site.

Snipped From Wikipedia:

The alt-right is a segment of right-wing ideologies presented as an alternative to mainstream conservatism in the politics of the United States.[1] The alt-right has been described as a movement unified by support for Republican Presidential candidate Donald Trump,[2][3][4] as well as opposition to multiculturalism and immigration.[5][6]

Frankly, Alinsky’s rules were, up until a point, pretty immutable and universal - and they worked.

The one thing that Alinsky, nor Hillary, never counted on was the I-N-T-E-R-N-E-T!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Except for all the people who have consciously identifies as "Alt-right" for years now. The only reason you've never heard of it before is because you get your news from the MSM, and *they* only heard of it very recently.

Anyone on the left should be called a communist. If they balk, ask them what exactly about communism they don’t like.

“This is why conservatism is a perpetual failure. You’re always waking up and opposing gay marriage (for example) after the mechanism to put it into place, both legally and socially, is already in place and doing its work.”

Totally correct.

A weakness the left continues to exploit. Much to the detriment of the country.

So....you don't think we should support Trump or oppose multiculturalism and immigration?

The millenialtards will be here shortly too declare you a dinosaur. Seems to be the popular thing now to fit in a slot created for you by globalists.

EDIT:

I snipped the wrong part from Wikipedia in my last post.
Anyhow do a little internet searching and you will see why Hil-liar-y said Alt Right.

From Wiki:

The alt-right has no official ideology, but various sources have described it as a loosely-defined conservative movement that is associated with white nationalism,[6][7][8] white supremacism,[2][6][9][10] antisemitism,[2][6][11][8] right-wing populism,[12][13] nativism,[14] and the neoreactionary movement.[1][15][16]

Not angry, just pointing out that you’re a fool who can’t even use terms correctly, all because you apparently didn’t bother to do enough research to learn about them prior to two days ago.
