I saw an anti-Trump hit piece written by David Brock's left-wing media shill site. I don't see anything that answers my question. How many Pepe's do I have to post to become a member?

 

HOW MANY?

You can certainly invent whatever you want, and believe it to be true if you like.

 

"atl-right" is certainly not a "thing"

 

Again, it's hate speech intended to demonize any conservative by associating them with this invented profile.

 

Tea Party is real.  "alt-right" is a myth... an invention made to demonize by those who lack deeper understanding why someone would dare disagree with radical leftists.

That video is made up? The Alt Right logo displayed at the speech is made up? When Stephen Bannon said Breitbart is the platform of the alt right, he meant liberal mythology meant to demonize? The conservative discussion Eric posted to is bunk?

I'm not trying to demonize anyone. I'm just questioning why nobody seems to bat an eye that this group is growing in numbers under the Republican tent. Is the party so lost and fractured they can't tell a hate group they have no place there? I have never once said all Republicans are white nationalists and here's the proof!!! But the fact nobody in the party is openly rejecting this faction would alarm me if it was my party.

Boasting about wanting to join a hate group. Classy. I never cited any hit piece on Trump. I posted a video and Eric posted a link I found informative on the subject. Watching videos is about your speed. I know reading is a challenge for you. I try to make things simple.

What are you not understanding? Alt right is a meme phrase created by some fringe twitter users like Milo to differentiate themselves from modern Republicanism and neoconservatism. There is no leadership. There is no organization. There is no consensus on logos. There is no alt right organized events. There is no dedicated media group. It is just anonymous redditors and channers with the occasional blue-checked twitter user posting silly memes until one of them goes viral.

 

The left now uses "alt right" as a disparaging term for anyone who disagrees with their most progressive social policies. Labels are bad, bro. We had this conversation already.

So you didn't watch either video? That sure looked like an organized event.

"The event, organized by the white nationalist “think tank” the National Policy Institute (NPI), came in response to growing media interest in the “alt-right” movement."

"NPI was founded in 2005 by William Regnery II.^[2] Louis R. Andrews was the chairman until 2010. MSNBC reported that Andrews voted for Barack Obama in the 2008 US presidential election in order, he said, to help destroy the Republican Party so that it can be reborn into a party that will support the "interests of white people".^[3] When Andrews died in late 2011 he was replaced by Richard B. Spencer, who had been acting Director. NPI had been based in Augusta, Georgia, but was relocated to Virginia with the change in leadership."

So this far-right organization created in 2005 lead by some far-right individual uses the label "alt right" in an event they hold, and suddenly everyone who opposes the Democrats far-left social agenda are members of the racist "alt right" faction. That's David Brock for you. A legend in subversive psyops and manipulation.

You are the only one bringing up Brock. I never made any of the accusations you reference. I'm just asking why the party giving them a spotlight and vehicle to attract new members isn't distancing themselves from a hate group.

Probably the same reason the Democrats didn't distance themselves from the Communist party when they were endorsed by them. Better not to bring the fringe groups, or in this case meme labels, to light? The Communist party holds no legitimacy, just like the "Alt Right" has no legitimacy.

Don't you love how not only are we supposed to feed the "trolls" that show up to the party, we're supposed to put them up front and center and give them all the attention they desire...

Giving a hate group attention by saying... THESE PEOPLE ARE NOT WITH US! Distancing yourself from a hate group should not require deep consideration. Saying, "I don't know why these white nationalists think they are part of the Republican party, but they're not," should be a good thing for their reputation. Like I said... this party does not represent me. They can continue to disintegrate all they want. They obviously know what they're doing.

Meh. If the Democrats have no issue distancing themselves from BLM or the Communist party, which are both objectively worse AND larger than the "alt right", I see no reason why the Republicans should distance themselves from some irrelevant label.

BLM and the Communist party are not integrating themselves into the Democratic Party. The Alt Right is integrating themselves into the Republican party. They admit to riding the coattails of this election process to increase their numbers and to make their message more mainstream.

A video from a website whose owner works for a Hillary Clinton SuperPAC about an organization that wants to destroy the Republican party holding an event is your evidence that the "alt right" is integrating with the Republican party?
