Depends on how you define alt right, however I think you can’t lump any large group into one name. For some, Alt-righters are literal neo nazis . for others Alt Right can mean being against establishment republicans such as the entire Bush family, McCain etc Or we can deny alt right is an actual thing if we can also deny alt left is an actual thing.

StrangeSox Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 Regardless of what you think about some tactics of some on the left, the "alt left" is still not a thing. The alt-right was a self-labeling group. Nobody calls themselves "alt left". Reddy, the best president ever said there were some very fine people marching with tiki torches and chanting Nazi slogans the night before they murdered a protestor, what more do you need??

StrangeSox Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 The alt right was explicitly about white supremacy and creating ethnostates when Richard Spencer coined the term as the softer, gentler face of his Nazi politics. There is no parallel "alt left" where that happened. There are a wide variety of liberals and leftists with big differences in politics, but there is no "alt left". There isn't an equivalent mirror for every term or group. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There isn't an equivalent mirror for every term or group. I pretty clearly defined alt-right many pages back. They were mostly self defined because of a shared set of values.

StrangeSox Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 It's dead in the House on arrival, but a very good step in the Senate on net neutrality. Hopefully if the Dems can take the House in November, we can get this passed for real. Verizon has already hinted at some great "pay for access on each individual app or service" models with their 5g rollouts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont recall saying it was debunked or not, just that was something that explained where the term "spirit cooker" derived from. I have no idea about any of it, but it gave some background to what you were referring to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know too much about the pizza Gate stuff. I know a lot of stuff was censored and you would have to look up archived 4chan posts on it. But spirit cooking, it’s a thing. I guess some say it’s “art”. How semen and blood can constitutite as art is something I can’t comprehend, on the surface it does not appear to be anything illegal or anything, just weird cultish stuff.
