Stewart’s most controversial positions:

•He called Paul Nehlen, a self-professed “pro-white” candidate for Congress in Wisconsin, his “personal hero.”

•He championed Confederate symbols and even had Confederate flags hanging at political rallies.

•He’s tied to the organizers of the deadly “Unite the Right” rally in Charlottesville.

To my mind, there is rather a large gap between “problematic views on race” and the epithet “racist”.

labeling people as racist has become a favorite pastime for some people.

Maybe the Far Left should stop demonizing white people, if they don’t want to see this kind of pushback.

Kind of like labeling some posters as haters is another favorite pastime of people around here. There is an eery similarity between the two. Someone is labeled a hater and when asked for evidence, the accuser is almost always silent.

Well if JiL says so then it must be true!

Why is this post hidden?

Probably because it is a racist post for Josh!

As long as identity politics and intersectionality define the political debate look for more alienation and retreating into groups that give comfort and support to your identity be it race religion et cetera.

I can’t really figure out why it should be hidden.

Because the post is racist!

We both know that will not happen and so Alt-Right is all right.

Still sharpening that axe, I see.

I think the Alt-Right are equally as imbecilic and useless as the Far Left. They’re both groups of racist, bigoted jerks. However, I also think that the Left places many, many people in the “alt-right” that are anything but, like Jordan Peterson.

I’m confused, should a person be anti-White? If anti-White is bad then the opposite, pro-White, should be good. I know pro-Black is considered good. The only reason pro-Black would be good and pro-White would be bad is if you are a racist.

Whoever changed the thread title, thank you.

Only if you are a racist.

As someone who considers himself Alt-Right, I urge you to reevaluate your assessment. Maybe I will do an AMA at some point.

 

[starshiptrooper]

There we have it boys, anti-racist is just a dog whistle for anti-white.

 

[Raxus]

Only if you are a racist.

Nope. If pro-black is good, then pro-white is good too. Can’t have it both ways.

I think the talking points that people like Jared Taylor have are despicable. I’ve heard enough from the alt-right to know what I think.

I would urge you to come away from their racist groupthink, just like I would urge someone to come away from the racist groupthink of groups like Black Lives Matter.
