    @biff17

    Arrogant is coming in threads with nothing substantive to add besides your criticism of another human being

    I called sweet lou arrogant cause he claimed i didn't read the article like he would know that

    Get off my dick adding to these threads your disdain and nothing else

    I am calling you arrogant because you are arrogant even when given facts you dismiss them out of hand.

    Nobody is on your dick, the fact that you think this shows your arrogance.

    Arguing with you doent have to be like this. I understand things get heated but you initially respond by saying i didn't take the time to read like im lazy

    Then you continue on that then you start talking about ISIS when your thread was about the alt right to make look crazy trying to aay im defending ISIS when i haven't defended any hate group

    I gave a well reasoned response to the article saying their hypothesis isnt backed up with numbers

    Then i have to give ten responses about how im not defending groups of the alt right who have disdain for me as a black man and worse ISIS a group who is our enemy

    Fair enough.

    You are right that these groups do not work together, some of them hate each other...but I'd argue that their vision for the country, their goals, are all the same in the end. So in this way they work together, despite their minor differences (which is really more about how they present themselves and the strategy they employ to grow in power)

    White men are starting to "radicalize" (cough-cough) because it's officially legal now to discriminate against them. In fact, they're the only group that it is ok to discriminate against. So, they're starting to talk to each other about these trends. This causes alarm in some circles.

    I tried to give you a logical breakdown of the fallacies of your argument and made points using very standard debating tactics. You consistently responded by cursing and name-calling. So yes it doesn't have to be this way but when you are making so many ad hominem attacks I don't see why I should put up with that.

    I bring up ISIS and what they do on social media as it is very similar to what these alt-rights are now copying. They are using the same tactics. Yet you condemn one but are claiming the other is "censorship" - so it is perfectly reasonable for me to dive into that.

    You haven't given a reasonable response. You are simply saying that since you don't see any numbers around recruitment you are going to dismiss it and claim it is not happening. That's not a reasonable response.

    I disagree with this to a large extent. To my mind, the alt-right was just that, an alternative right wing option that did not agree with a lot of the traditional conservative (trad-con) viewpoints.

    So, alt-righters would be controversial/politically incorrect about a lot of things: not just racial issues, but also gender issues, cultural issues; the role of government. They would oppose both the welfare state and police state.

    Now, did it include a lot of white nationalists? Yes, it came to include a lot of white nationalists.

    I don't think it accurately describes the entirety of what is going on with the alt-right; what spurs them to dialogue/action etc.

    But, this alt-right = racist equation is a manufactured product of the leftists, who use "racism" to decry anything they don't like.

    Did not watch. I would not say white men are discriminated against since they would be discriminated against by white men since they still run this country economically and politically

    That be saying people would rather call out white terrorism as opposed to radical Islam or black male violent crime or whatever

    So how does this random woman have the power to discriminate against anyone?

    How does this one tweet make it officially legal?

    My only point is they aren't backing their claim with numbers

    Thats a fact. You don't understand facts and opinions

    Edit: didn't codemn one as opposed to the other.
    I really haven't condemned either cause im simply arguing you cant claim people are manipulated like that without numbers

    Just like saying Trump won because Russia manipulated voters opinions on Hilary Clinton who most made their mind up about25 years ago

    Well, if you had "watched" the photos :confused: then you would see why some white men are starting to band together out of self-preservation.

    A "few" white men are placed in a "few" positions of power in the nation. A lot of people make the mistake of thinking that these "few" somehow represent all white men/people. That's also where the erroneous view of "white privilege" comes from.

    @Sweet Lou 4 2

    Here is what is important to me. Getting to root fundamental true causes of political phenomenon.

    The article is interesting and im glad you posted it. That being said i dont think white nationalism is on the rise like people are claiming. I have faith that this country is in constant improvement in things like race relations

    Therefore i need numbers
