    Sure, but “alt-right” means something specific, and I was missing the jump of reason … but this thread has gotten pretty heated, so I guess I shouldn’t be surprised people were weirdly upset by what I thought was an innocent question.

    Oh well, it’s the internet, after all.

      Alt right is pretty undefined imo.

      It was started by a right winger who didn’t want to be called far-right so he just called himself “alternative-right”. It caught on but his views were still the same right wing views.

      I guess people often use it to mean the more internet-savvy, meme-posting, trolling right wing. But they too dunk on LGBT people so even then I’m not sure why anybod would think it’s not connected.

        Fair enough, political definitions are rarely well-defined.

        I guess people often use it to mean the more internet-savvy, meme-posting, trolling right wing.

        Yeah, that’s how I understood it… Not really something Eich seems to do much.

        I’m not sure why anybod would think it’s not connected.

        Just because Eich has awful views doesn’t give license to also be awful by throwing around random other accusations or connecting him with trolling skinheads. Remember, even the Nuremberg Trials had defense attorneys, so let’s stick to the high road of justice, not the shitty cesspool that the far right wants to drag us into.

        Dude sincerely go to hell, you are cataloging people that are not in your political side as an alt-righter.

          Lmao

          Yeah I’m the bad one because I have no time for homophobic cunts who want to strip minority groups’ rights away.

          We get it, you hate anybody who isn’t a straight white guy.

          Bye bye, go simp for some far right twat to somebody else.

            I wasnt talking specifically about Eich. I am talkng broadly but yeah you can sincerely go to hell. You are saying alt-right to anyone that isnt in far left as you are, even centrist and other types of left people. You are a fanatic and fundamentalist. Not all gay people is from LGBT lobby. That is a political movement. As like not all women are feminist. Stop confusing the political movement with the real people.
