Fresh off the front page of reddit with 5k comments. The mods pinned a post with a shoutout out to jim sterling. Reddit people are joyless

Here let this fat werido explain why trans peopel are totally normal and not crazy seems to be about as effective as going. Let this morbidly obese person tell you about nutrition. I just don't feel like people are goign to take what they say as that authoritative.
 
New anti-reddit book is out. Interesting.

Pretty sure anon is shilling his own book. "#1 in Social Media" but not even top 10 in "Social Media Guides", and neither of those are popular genres anyway considering how low the overall sales ranking is. Nevermind the fact that the listing only has 1 review and it's by the same anon, and the account that left the review has no other reviews in their history...
Also:
>OP is "only halfway" through the book
>confidently tells us what the entire second half is about anyway despite not having gotten there
Not to mention googling the name of the book in quotes just brings up a post where the author is trying to shill his own book on Reddit, so he's not above internet self-promotion.

Has anyone who uses that term (and the term "alt-right") unironically ever bothered to explain the difference between "right" and "far right," or between "right" and "alt-right"?

I've always wondered about that, since I never seem to see the term "right" used by itself anymore. It's always prefixed with "far-" or "alt-". On the few occasions a journoscum can resist the urge to get in a quick jab they seem to settle on "conservative" instead of "right."

Note: asking this question of someone who does this in person is really fucking funny, especially if you ask for an example of "non-alt right right." I could swear I've seen smoke...

I struggle to keep up with these shifting definitions/terms - but my original understanding of them all were as follows;

Right-Wing : Mainstream Republican values (circa 1990-2006 or so). Doesn't really use the internet.
Alt-Right: Republicans who think gay marriage and cannabis should be legal or whatever. Uses the internet a lot.
Far-Right: Possibly a neo-nazi, not entirely sure. Shaved head, clubhouse, maybe has a pamphlet or a mailing list.

I don't think that's how anyone views those terms anymore, though. Couldn't for the life of me tell you what they mean now.

They're going to unironically tell you whatever mainstream democrat candidate is "center right" even though they were the ones screaming their heads off for everyone to vote for them in the last election.

oh that's an easy one:

Right-Wing: "wrongthinker"
Alt-Right : "wrongthinker"
Far-Right : "wrongthinker"

You can be any one of those by being skeptical of the jab, opposing unchecked immigration, saying there's only 2 sexes "genders"...
