I’m saying more people should tell people who try to shame you over some dumb shit should tell those people go fuck themselves. Like those hacks over at media matters trying to get advertisers to pull their ads from Tucker Carlson.

This is Earth now.
I used to be one of those guys.
Speaking for myself, it all came back to fucking Gamergate. My hobby was being slandered by game “journalists” and anti-Gamergate grifters. So of course I would side with whoever would say things that would reassure me and I already agree with. Along came the honeyed words of charismatic individuals like Sargon of Akkad or MundaneMatt. I was an angry 20-something, and with their pro-gater propaganda I was ripe audience for them. Naturally I got curious about their non-gamergate stuff which lead me down the rabbit hole that is the PewDiePipeline. How could I not, these guys were “on my side” of Gamergate, and thus they had to be smart individuals. Surely they must be “correct” about these other issues, right?
It took years of listening to and apologizing for their alt-right proselytizing before I realized that no, these aren’t enlightened people. They are disgusting excuses for humans and I needed to stop listening to them.
||On the other hand, now I listen to the likes of The Young Turks. I jumped from one end of the spectrum to the other. Christ.
So if I may, Fuck Gamergate for pushing into the arms of Sargon, and Fuck Sargon for pushing me into the arms of Cenk Uygur. I am such a reactionary tool.||
 
I used to be like that too, briefly.
 
But with people subhumans like Chris Ray Gun and ShoeOnHead. Took about weeks of deradicalisation to get over their rhetoric and this was about in 2016-2017. What really got me was the Islamophobia.
 
It just seemed really easy at the time, to blame all of western society’s ills on a group of outsiders and paint refugees from a regional war as hordes of invaders, coming to take away everything we love.
 
Some people like the Christchurch shooter never got out of that rabbit hole like you or I did.

I wouldn’t even rape you.
 
I think the only kind of woman willing to have sex with you, Kyle, would be an incest-made, white trailer trash woman who snorts cocaine every Monday and lets her uncles and cousins fuck her while complaining about how the coloureds are destroying America.

As is Mark “Count Dankula” Meechan. The Nazi dog guy. Because UKIP is trying to corner the market on assholes or something.
 
Remember when a certain someone used to come in here defending Dankula’s shitty stunt of making his girlfriend’s dog do the Hitler Salute just because he thought his girlfriend wasn’t giving him enough attention?
 
I wonder what he’d think about Dankula pulling another stunt this time.

The “alt-right” mob are the less intellectual end of neoreactionary discourse, and delighted to be so. These are the people who have wholeheartedly embraced the overt racism, misogyny, neo-Nazi affectations, bullying and trolling of chan culture as a lifestyle. You’ll find them on /pol/, My Posting Career or The Right Stuff; they make up a sizable fraction of the more radical and uncouth sections of Gamergate. They’re also the ones who popularized “cuckservative” as a term of abuse for those on the right who are deemed not racist enough.
The label originated with Richard Spencer’s white nationalist magazine/blog Alternative Right, nicknamed “AltRight”.
Their advantages over the Moldbuggian strain are shorter blog posts and an actual sense of humour (such as it is). Whether they’re primarily neoreactionaries who are into white nationalism or white nationalists dressing their ideas up with neoreactionary jargon is probably a distinction without a difference. They tend to think actual neoreactionaries use too many words, and aren’t so keen on Yarvin being Jewish.
The term has come to be more generally be used for Trump supporters who think swastikas are good; in this context, it’s just a hip name for white supremacists.
(Emphasis mine)
 
Though there is overlap (just ask Whatevs), the Alt-Right are merely the old wine, new wineskins racist conservatism to the kooky philosophy-driven syncretic weirdos that make up the neoreactionary movement.

Litteraly the first line of tour screed as that they are at the end of the neoteactionnary movement so they are still technically part of it even if they are at the tail end

Discourse !== movement. Although the Alt-Right and neoreactionaries overlap intellectually, they are not part of the same group. Hell, Yavin himself is quite dismissive of the Alt-Right because of their use of populism (populism is antithetical to NRx philosophy). Also, if the Alt-Right are neoreactionaries (to quote yourself), then why do we call them the “Alt-Right”? Why not label them by their [supposed] philosophical underpinnings?
 
It’s funny, because most people like with you whenever I bring up neoreactionaries just think they’re part of the Alt-Right, and as such just consider them as part of that threat rather than the more unique and insidious threat that they actually are. When [if given the change] I actually explain what neoreactionaries actually believe, and who subscribes to their ideas, they just dismiss them as akin to “the Alt-Right with an overactive imagination”…which is ironically how people in the later 20s/early 30s reacted to Nazism. People back then didn’t think something so out-there could actually take power, and that it was the militarists (read: Italian-style fascists)/communists (read: anyone receiving aid from Moscow) you really had to worry about taking power in Wiemar Germany.

I’m honestly more surprised that UKIP are still going. But I suppose right now the only thing really keeping them together is riding the Brexit train and trying to win favour through that.

Come to think of it…
 
Most of gamergate was mostly just a bunch of “literally who?” vs another group of “literally who?”
 
||I still say Gamergate is one of the reasons why the internet’s gotten so toxic with “SJWs vs Anti-SJW” ||
