It time we call the Alt-Right what it is...A violent extremist movement

[Jyggalag]

Totally agree on the premise that people can stop painting anyone right of center or anyone who doesn't agree with every left wing agenda as "Alt-right"

Theres no "painting" needed. The shooter is your run of the mill conservative; using your run of the mill conservative rhetoric and a heavy penchant towards conspiracy theories.

[Lorgar Aurelian]

Alt right is just a term the far left invented for anybody who doesn't agree with their ludicrious SJW agenda.

Odd I’ve never been called alt right even when not agreeing with said “SJWs” if seems as if there is more to it then that.

[Coolthulhu]

Yes and no. This would apply to the more extremist adherents, sure, but to go and say that most self-styled alt-righters are on the same level as Salafists, well, that's thankfully not the case, otherwise we would've seen way worse than what has happened till now. Comparing Watson to Choudary? Don't make me laugh.

[Livnthedream]

He wants a government that caters just to the right and whims of white people and the "superior" culture. He is a conservative through and through, wanting to payback as a means to preserve white society from the invaders. You're in denial if you think this was anything else.

No, I think you are ignorant to the point of stupidity if you think that manifesto was real. The entire thing was written as soundbites for the media to echo far and wide. He even says as much in the damn thing.

As I said before, read it, then watch the actual livestream. No one puts as much thought into this as that guy did, and then performs as poorly as they did when it comes time. And that is without even going into the problems with the logic in the manifesto itself.

[Vando]

For people like Richard Spencer, yes. But, I have a problem with the term alt-right being thrown around so loosely, that I would say no for this poll.

[Rooflesstoofless]

I’m cool with calling all extremist ideologies violent. Muslims, alt-righters, anti-abortion bombers, etc.

Inner city gang culture as well.

Are all Muslims violent? I ask, because my neighbor is a Muslim... should I be worried?

[Vargulf the Happy Husky]

what in the hell do any of you plan to do to stop it?


oh, i got it, start plucking the letters off your keyboard so you can throw them at alt righters! that'll teach them

It definitely is real and is the product of conservative rhetoric and delusion echoed by some of most powerful politicians in the US and Australia. Look at what an Australian senator just said moments ago about Islamic followers and immigration. The only difference between the shooter and the politican is that the shooter actually executed conservative rhetoric.

Whens the last time you even heard them in the news? Theyre so irrelevant this thread isnt needed.

Just today, you mean?

The same thing liberals and progressives did in against Nazis and all conservative rule, fight back and win.

It's just a bunch of impotent little boys on the internet who will never do anything lol. Fighting the good fight! Online, never actually accomplishing anything constructive in regards to what they see as the great enemy.

[Linkedblade]

It's clear by now that the Alt-Right is in essence a violent extremist movement. Clearly not every member or sympathizer will commit a violent act, but the movement as a whole reached a point where it has globally caused enough fatalities that it can be considered a serious threat.

Its "luminaries" like Sargon of Akkad, Black Pigeon, Joseph Watson, Stephan Molyneux and ideological founders like Steve Bannon and Richard Spencer have hidden behind "free speech" enough.

We shut down Islamic rabble rousers like Anjem Choudary, it's time we shut down people like the ones I mentioned above. Platforms like Youtube, Twitter, Facebook need to clean up their act and crack down on this content the same as they do with those spreading other forms of extremist ideologies.

Enough is enough. "The Great Replacement" and other rubbish talking points like that might not outright call for violence, but do the legwork for the radicalization of those willing to commit acts of violence.

**Any Mod reading this, please could you fix the title of the thread? -It is time...**

You couldn't be any more wrong. Sargon is an english liberal, Molyneux is a libertarian and Spencer is a white nationalist. You couldn't pick people with any more diverse politics.

Stefan Molyneux is, if anything, an even bigger Nazi than Spencer. Y'all really can't help yourselves defending these fuckers, eh? I wonder why

Oh look, it's another leftist fear mongering trash thread. Just a friendly reminder that your ideology killed literally dozens of million.

[Zelk]

Comparing Sargon of Akkad, Black Pigeon, Joseph Watson, Stephan Molyneux and even Steve Bannon to people like Richard Spencer, is precisely what makes people think your arguments hold Zero weight. Since you lump a bunch of people into a category and say "LOOK THEY ARE ALL PART OF THE SAME THING" when you know full well they aren't.

Inane comparisons like this is always hypocritical because the exact same people that lump all these Guys together with actual Neo-Nazis and Psychos is the exact same thing you argue against when you say you shouldn't judge other huge groups by what a few do.

Sometimes I don't think they understand how even Real Life works.

They have all peddled the same islamophobia and white genocide bullshit theories. These theories are the bedrock of the current far right, and of the shooter in new Zealand. There is absolutely no defending any of them unless you want to be seen as a fascist.

Just today, you mean?

And that would be?

He seems to sure love white nationalism...

And that goes directly against principles of libertarianism.

How would you know? You are brand new here.

Maybe you could provide a link to all those other threads about which you are speaking.

Yep, you are nuts. Not sure if blinded by bubble or just flat out trolling. <>

Todays events are exactly why in the UK people like Tommy Robinson have been banned from social media platforms. People peddling hate and violence should be behind bars, it doesn't matter where they are from, what colour their skin is. Hate is hate and terror is terror. Anyone arguing against that belongs there too.
