Interested to hear definitions for "Alt-Right"

[TheDude]

It's a new term floating around, so thought to ask what your opinion is for an accurate definition.

 

[TheOldSchool]

It's been around since 2008. You should pay more attention. Anyways it's a label for the group of people that are scared xenophobes and want people to pay them for jobs that robots do for free.

Here...this pretty much explains the Alt-Right as an internet free speech movement....


What you need to know about the alt-right

In March, Mr Yiannopoulous and Allum Bokhari described the group in their “Conservative guide to the alt-right” as an “amorphous movement” of subcultures from “intellectuals” to “natural conservatives” and a “meme team”.

They’re “dangerously bright”, mostly college-educated men who live in a “manosphere” and revel in busting taboos on race, feminism, misogyny and any other kind of political correctness.

“Previously an obscure subculture, the alt-right burst onto the national political scene in 2015. Although initially small in number, the alt-right has a youthful energy and jarring, taboo-defying rhetoric that have boosted its membership and made it impossible to ignore,” the pair claim.

Those involved value homogenous communities over diverse ones, want stability, hierarchy and subversion, with some “young rebels” drawn to it “for the same reason that young Baby Boomers were drawn to the New Left in the 1960s: because it promises fun, transgression, and a challenge to social norms they just don’t understand”.

“Just as the kids of the 60s shocked their parents with promiscuity, long hair and rock’n’roll, so too do the alt-right’s young meme brigades shock older generations with outrageous caricatures,” their guide reads.

They also claim the alt-right is separate to outright racists and white supremacists including the so-called 1488ers who praise Hitler. They say the rise of the group comes after years of political correctness and a “safe space” culture gone too far.

“Had [the Left and establishment] been serious about defending humanism, liberalism and universalism, the rise of the alternative right might have been arrested.

“Instead, they turned a blind eye to the rise of tribal, identitarian movements on the Left while mercilessly suppressing any hint of them on the Right.

It was this double standard, more than anything else, that gave rise to the alternative right. It’s also responsible, at least in part, for the rise of Donald Trump.”

Exactly what I have been saying since before 2008.

Here is an interview with Milo Yianopolous where he discusses many topics including the Alt-Right....


they get to Alt-Right at the 8:47 mark........

 

[ColonelAngus]

The "alt left" seems to be all Libs.

Half of the rioters arrested were not registered or did not vote.

That is some funny shit to me.

 

[MACAULAY]

Is it Alt Right to be in favor of enforcing the Immigration laws of this Country?

Is it Alt Right to be opposed to letting Democrats Open Our Borders so they can reel in new Democrats?

There is so much horseshit in that definition, I couldn't tell.

 

[TheOldSchool]

“intellectuals”

All terms are "made up". But you're fooling yourself if you think it doesn't have meaning.

Here's a hint for you: the alt-right has absolutely nothing to do with "conservatism".

Libtards are still trying to define the famous tea party. Never figured that out either.

It is very much a cultural conservative movement.

No, it's really not. It's a reactionary movement.

No it isn't.

Social justice warriors are the reactionaries.

Nothing funnier than a libtard trying to tell US what alt right means....hilarious stuff.

So anyone who objects to flooding this country with cheap foreign labor is in the Alt-Right?

IMO this is the best definition so far. Open to others.

Amen. Apparently following the law is now a radical concept.

"Social Justice Warriors" were the reactionaries a generation ago.
