Please define alt right, in your own words. It seems everyone claiming 4chan is right, far right, or alt right, means something rather different



Alt right is a progranda term by neo nazis for neo nazis, so they don't sound like actual neo nazis.

Stop using the term alt right. Alt right means neo nazi. Nothing else.


Not every racist is a neo nazi, not every leftist is a stalinist.

Lumping them together is a cheap tactic to aggravate people, which I think it's dishonest and not very effective.


> Not every racist is a neo nazi,

True, American racists are, for instance, quite often neoconfederates. OTOH, the Confederates were among the direct inspirations for the Nazis, so in a sense that makes those racists Neo-Proto-Nazis.


I am not going to play games with semantics when we can look at the state of the site now compared to before 2011.

Do you think that /pol/ is anything but some bastardization of right wing principles?
