May their name and memory be utterly blotted out!
“I have seen ZERO evidence of anti semetism.”
Not sure if this is sarcasm or not. If it isn’t, please look at any college campus today.
#AltRightMeans
Speaking the truth even if it isn't politically correct.
As Dennis Prager has noted, to the Left one can never be "too-far Left" or "extreme Left".
I wouldn’t call it white-supremacy either - some of the folks on alt-right would probably be call white defenders. They see their color as legitimate as the others, in other words, regardless of color we should all be treasured.
And I would also state that the majority of alt-right is not concerned with that issue at all anyway - much of the alt-right is not pissed off white hipsters.
Trump called Hillary a bigot. The definition of Bigot is “a person who is intolerant toward those holding different opinions”. Which is pretty much the problem with PC in general.
The question is, will she prove herself a bigot by trying to prove Trump one?
It’s interesting to think about the way in which the word “bigot” has been corrupted away from it’s definition in the dictionary into a designation for anyone who might want to talk when other people don’t want them to be heard at all.
President Obama, to his credit, is on record against this, but Hillary isn’t. It will be interesting to see if this is where she goes with her speech.
Hint: 'existence' as in we refuse to be the victims of a caucasian genocide.
There's even the occasional lunatic on this site, yet in no way does that justify anyone's labeling FR with tags like neo-nazi, white nationalist.
I won't speak for the others you pinged, but when I desire a sermon from you, check your inbox.
(but don't hold yer breath)
Vox Day doesn’t speak for me.
I think it might be more accurately stated that “some” portion or aspect of people that consider themselves “alt-right” are racist and/or anti-semitic. Same can be said for those who call themselves republican, conservative, liberal, or democrat. Subsets of hateful people exist in almost every movement.
Here’s a very thorough article on the various sub-sets of those who consider themselves “alt-right”. Very interesting read:

The old Jackson-Davis-Cleveland Democrats have disappeared from the party a long time ago, as William Jennings Bryan, Woodrow Wilson, and Franklin Roosevelt converted it into a socialistic party that moves further left each decade. Two generations ago, Republicans like Robert Taft, Sr., and Barry Goldwater were the closest to that tradition. Ron Paul is the most prominent representation in this time. The Republican Party, by and large, has favored business interests throughout its history. From Lincoln to Hoover, it was the party of high tariffs. In the current time, it is a "free trade" party, as the interests of business have changed due to access to cheaper labor markets overseas.
What is this "alt-right"? As far as I can tell, it is a mish-mash of paleo-conservatives, libertarians, nationalists, white separatists, and populists. Arguably, the conservative establishment, as represented by the Heritage Foundation, National Review, most conservative radio talkers, etc., has become something of a controlled opposition to the uni-party of socialistic Democrats and country club Republicans. Trump's triumph over both the country club and conservative establishment wings of the GOP represented a repudiation by the rank and file of the status quo, much as the Tea Party did, although the conservative establishment did support that movement.
The question arises: what impact will the "alt-right" have on a Trump administration? My guess is that the more extreme elements would be unwelcome. If Trump has an ideology, it is pragmatism, like Eisenhower. He is also unquestionably pro-Israel, a fact that would exclude those who blame the "Joos" for everything, including the earthquake that just hit Italy. Look at his most public defenders: Giuliani, Sessions, Perry, Christie. With the exception of Sessions, none of them pass conservative purity standards. They are basically B-list politicians who see in Trump a path to new prominence. These men are the sort of people who will likely dominate a Trump administration.
And btw, as your nick didn't sound at all familiar, I had a quick peek .. signed up in '12, seven posts total including today's, above.
A reasonable person could be excused for curiosity as to the actual motive that seems to have you fixated on this particular thread . . .
I thought they were saying “ult” right as in ultra right.
Finally, people who are saying what I am thinking and seeing and feeling.
