What do you consider alt-right?

I have seen the term Alt-Right used a lot and it seems to be used to describe most people on the right in general. However there truly are people who are far right duh as Richard Spence whom even people on the right despise.

Do you think people who use the term alt-right know what that means or do they just over play it as an excuse?

I consider people alt right if they are very against ideas of social justice and indivualism.

@ShaythePanTransMan so you use it just as a loose term to catagorize people you deem immoral? I’m not against your reasoning just curious if that’s what you mean?

@TakingBackMidgard Ahh...hm...yeah, I guess you’re right.

@ShaythePanTransMan you’re good, I’m a constitutional conservative and some folks on the left think I’m horrible but I’m also a Norse Pagan so traditional conservative such as Christian conservatives think I’m a liberal.

But you’ll never find me calling someone I don’t necessarily agree with as the enemy, an idiot, or evil.

I just have my own opinions as we all do.

@TakingBackMidgard I guess so. I’m not a fan of constitutional conservatives or Christian conservatives.
Well, you’re better than most people then.

@ShaythePanTransMan I want myself to be seen as being a good person because of my individual characteristics, not my beliefs and politics but I want to be able to identify myself to others what my beliefs and politics are but not have them be a reflection of my character.

@TakingBackMidgard That’s a kind of contradictory thing to want. People base their politics on their morals and beliefs. People also judge character from people’s morals and beliefs. Those things aren’t mutually exclusive. If you support politics that alienates or removes rights from certain groups then you’re discriminatory of those groups by default. That’s why it’s so hard to see eye to eye with the other side when one side is trying to take rights from the other.

@TakingBackMidgard Sorry for not replying I marked it as read accidentally. I think beliefs and politics are always a reflection of your character though. That’s why I see some conservatives as “bad people.”

@ShaythePanTransMan it’s all good, I fell asleep. And I get where you’re coming from. You see pretty well in the fundamentalist baptist community.
