The alt-right is dead; so now what?

[Clop]

There never was an "alt-right". The commies just saw that "nazi" label had started losing effectiveness and also did not make really sense for most of the targets, they attacked with it, so they thought up a new scary sounding label for dehumanizing and lumping together anyone not 100% on board with them.

Well yeah, and it worked. Instead of having to distinguish between Nazi, racist, KKK, and an average voter, just make a new classification where all of those things fall into and presto manifesto, suddenly you're in the same category as genocide.

Pretty sure a lot of dumbasses still believe that shit too, they hear "alt-right" and they think "oh it's those neo-nazis, right?" I'd call it a clever trick if you ever needed to be clever to fool an average person on the street.

I feel sorry for young people who don't realize that the phrase 'alt-right' is interchangeable with the term 'neocon' from when George Bush was president.

The Alt-Right consisted of a baker's dozen people who adopted the label after it became a media boogeyman. It's about as "real" as that.

You know what the Alt-Right is? Well poisoning. It's a way to trap people into neoconservative faggotry by scaring actual conservatives out of a contingency plan, trapping them within the confines of the Republican Party. To the left, the Alt-Right meant anyone from Yellowflag Libertarians to ethnostate advocates. It's a catch-all term. The communist left may be thoroughly ineffective at realpolitik, but they won the war on words effortlessly.

Alt-Right was a well; a place for all the new right-wing to gather. It's true that it's been poisoned now, but it was divergent right wing groups that rejected neoconservatism.

It may have become what you guys describe; but that's not what it was prior to say, charlottesville.

Do absolutely Jackshit. The people behind the movement prove themselves just as degenerate as those “libtards” that they’re against. Seriously, Milo is going to Midwest FurFest this year like wtf.

The same that happened to the Dark Enlightenment, NRx, and Paleo-Conservatives; fall apart from infighting, reform beliefs, and form a new group under 'better' ideals. There will always be left overs from those groups, but the core will shift. They still won't actually do anything.

It's not who identifies itself with the label, it's more about who labels you.

Here's an old Soviet joke illustrating the mindset of the sort of people, who thought up and started applying the "alt-right" label:

A fox, running at full tilt passes a wolf, who starts running alongside, asking if there is a forest fire or something. Fox lets the wolf know, that NKVD has ordered all camels in the forest to be caught and shot for being enemies of the people. Wolf is perplexed - "you're clearly not a camel!". "Ok, you stay here and when you're in the basement, getting tortured for confession, your toenails ripped out and testicles crushed, you tell them, that you are not a camel", pants the fox and keeps on running.

Ironically summed up in this.

Now the remainders infest any remotely right-leaning site with their filth and turn it into a neo-nazi shithole.

This is patently not true. "Alt-right" as a term originated from the nationalist/white supremacy circles around ten years ago, around the same time when European populist parties started to gain traction, when certain elements within those circles wanted to re-brand themselves as alternatives to the "traditional" far right, essentially trying to obfuscate their racism in a bid to make their message more edible for the new generation of potential recruits.

There was also a heavy emphasis on the part of this proto-alt-right in trying to distance themselves from the capitalist and Christian elements of the "classical right". Originally there was lot of talk in those circles about a paradigm shift in politics away from the "traditional dichotomy of right and left", and from such soul-searching they emerged with a heavy dose of newspeak -words like ethnonationalism and the term alt-right itself.

Fact of the matter is that right wing parties are growing globally. Instead of acting in the real world the status quo obsessed over some nazi larpers online, pathetic. Honestly, good riddance, the alt-right movement were as delusional as the commies on r/breadtube. Instead of coming together, working towards reinstating family values, creating communities and discussing immigration in an intelligible way; they kept uttering their mantra of 'muh ethno-state'.

 

[Namekian George Floyd]

Were they ever really alive? Like there are a quite a few conservative channels on youtube and some of them even talk about immigration and race science but the real far-right isn't really on youtube or relevant at all, they all have their own websites like TheRightStuff and The Daily Stormer, neither of which has a very big viewer base.
