 "Alt-right"  (Ideology, Enemy image, plastic word, Polarising perspective)   | |
|---|---|
| Interest of | Steve Bannon |
| A modern term used in US and western CCM-media to define conservative-aligned parts of the population that have strayed away from supporting the classic liberal and classic conservatism parties in favour of (sometimes) more reactive, violent or anti-governmental ideas and concepts, in a way similar to the positioning of Antifa in the political spectrum. | |
The alt-right, or alternative right, is a loosely-connected and ill-defined[1] grouping of so-called 'white supremacists', 'neo-Confederates', 'neo-Nazis', 'neo-fascists', and other 'far-right'[2][3][4] fringe 'hate groups'.[5][6]
Alt-right beliefs have been described as 'isolationist', 'protectionist', antisemitic and 'white supremacist', and frequently said to be overlapping with 'neo-Nazism',[7] identitarianism, nativism and Islamophobia,[8][9] antifeminism, misogyny and homophobia,[10][11] right-wing populism and the neoreactionary movement. Most of these pejorative descriptions are the lingua-franca of nominally left-wing groups (such as the SPLC) utilized by the deep state to reinforce existing power structures.
It is worth noticing that left wing groups that pose a real challenge to power structures has been pejoratively defined in US and western CCM-media for over a century, and that the groups and individuals preoccupied with combating the perceived threat from the alt-right tend to liberal or proponents of identity politics.
The concept has further been associated with several groups such as American nationalists, paleoconservatives, paleolibertarians, Christian fundamentalists, neo-monarchists, men's rights advocates, and the 2016 United States presidential election campaign of Donald Trump.[12][13]

| Jason Walters | “Periodic reminder: apart from extreme-left "woke" identity-politics being outright demonic on its own, a side-effect is that its creates an ideal breeding ground for the exploitation of right-extremism.” | Jason Walters | |
| Geert Wilders | “Robert J. Shillman is the American sugar daddy who paid Geert Wilders' lawyer in the 'fewer Moroccans' case. Shillman is also one of the backers of Project Veritas, an organization affiliated with the Proud Boys who are increasingly believed to have played a leading role in the violent storming of the Capitol. The Canadian parliament has already called on the government to treat groups such as the Proud Boys as terrorist organizations from now on. The United States appears to be following that lead.” | Geert Wilders | 2021 |
Event Witnessed
| Event | Description |
|---|---|
| 2021 Washington D.C. Riots | One of the most fortified positions in the US gets violently overrun by a group of Trump Supporters after a demonstration... without a single shot fired by the mob. Official narrative soon blamed Trump and extremists. Official opposition narrative soon blamed the democratic party trying to fraud Joe Biden into the White House. Several other governments were briefed by intelligence services that the incident seemingly "was being allowed" to happen. |
