The Alt-Left...does it exist?
Or do I have it backwards?

 

[TheOldSchool]

Maybe the Berners. I'm hoping they're just a fluke though and in a normal election year Bernie would've stayed at around 3% support.

 

[SYTFE]

There really isn't an equivalent. Alt-right isn't even a very accurate term for what they are -- white supremacist keyboard jockeys is more accurate.

 

[LoneLaugher]

Of course there is an alt left. They are very prominent on left wing radio stations and left wing crazy websites. The Clinton campaign just hired one of their most popular spokespeople to run the campaign's messaging division.

Weeeeeeee!

And Hillary is their Grand Mama Dragon?

 

[CrusaderFrank]

Starkey is Alt Left

alt-left, alt-right... funny how propagandists are freaking out about a multitude of trolls which have conspired to tell dirty jokes to hurt their feelings. the propagandists have such guilty conscience, and their paranoia is such a cheap amusement.

The Democrats are the alt-left.

The real left unfortunately have to call themselves "alt-left" now.

They are backwards, with The Backwards Agenda, you know up is down, day is night, black is white, men with a penis can dress up in drag and enter the female bathroom, there's no such thing as men and women, Islamic terrorism has nothing to do with Islam etc.

Yes, they do exist. They are the COMMUNISTS and SOCIALISTS who have taken over the Democrat Party.

You'd be hard pressed to find a traditional Democrat like I remember growing up.

Well, we know if they existed, they would want health care for everyone and free education.

Republicans want to round them up. In the case of gays, kill them. In the case of other minorities, export them or revoke their citizenship and then export them.

The alt-left/real left pretty much supports Trump

The alt-right have named themselves, that is as it should be. There is no alt-left as the left is mostly a fiction of the right. The imaginary bogeyman who is blamed for the world as it is. Of course the right will deny this for if there were no imaginary left, the right would need to do something, think something, work at something, instead they whine on the internet and do nothing substantive for America. You only need to view the conservatives in congress to see this clearly, that is if you can see. A doubtful accomplishment for the right.

"The alt-right is often dismissed as white supremacist Trump supporters with Twitter accounts, and they are certainly that. But spend some time talking to key players and reading the movement's central texts, as I did, and you'll find it's more than a simple rebranding of the white nationalist movement. It's the product of the intersection of a longstanding, long-marginalized part of the conservative movement with both the most high-minded and the basest elements of internet culture. It's a mutated revival of a monster William F. Buckley thought he killed in the early 1990s, given new energy by the web." The alt-right is more than warmed-over white supremacy. It’s that, but way way weirder.

Bizarre. Sounds very alt-right actually. Why are so many retards on the internet so obsessed with race? It's such a low level subject to be obsessed about.

 

[theDoctorisIn]

The difference between the "alt-left" and the "alt-right" is basically the same as the difference between "neo-conservative" and "neo-liberal".

In other words, no difference at all.

 

[NYcarbineer]

Apparently the alt left, to the extent it exists, is composed of racists who are liberal on many issues outside the realm of race.
