Real Talk: What's motivating all these alt-right Internet guys?

[Shogun]

Reminds me of my world history course in college, the professor was more interested in the big ideas associated with the concepts vs remembering dates and facts. A highlight of my undergrad years was seeing two late 20's brehs debating about whether Frederick iii of Prussia was enlightened or not. I wish I had thought to video record that moment.




Also can you identify with other educators on here who feel like schools, reflect day care centers vs places of learning / enrichment.

Yes. Kids are handed diplomas without earning them all the time. Standards and expectations lower every year.
Complaining parents get more powerful every year.

I attribute it to a culture that pretends to care about education, but doesnt actually care about education.

The only neutral and popular platform in ALL MEDIA is the Joe Rogan Podcast, and that's it. Everything else in media is hyper polarized.

There's a number of them that are in on it for the bag and nothing more.

Alex Jones, Milo, Saragon, PJW, Peterson, Cernovich etc. not to dismay or ignore the fact they have sincere or beliefs, but they'd be pretty milquetoast if not common place in their ideal world. They'll say anything for them dollars and press. Also worthy of note how many of them are all either failed journos, writers, artists etc.

But what I find interesting, is the lower-tier figureheads of the alt-right and how they seem more dead set on accomplishing their end goal, despite not realizing how a number of them would be shyt out of luck were the west were to entirely fall to a fascist regime.

If you actually support Free Speech? Nah, you out of here.

You got critiques about capitalism and worker/labor rights? Bye Felicia.

You're not a white passing latina/asian woman or at least a hapa? You're 2nd class citizen status.

You're Jewish and think shyt sweet just caused you believed in our message? boooooooy

they don't realize thru their delusions in their ideal safe space they'd live a life of constant exposure to being next on the chopping block. They rather choose flimsy tribalism over humanity.

 

[Wargames]

A lot of it stems from an inability to get the things that they think they're entitled to.

Attractive women. High paying jobs. Respect from peers.

These dudes see people from other backgrounds reaching success and rather than question why they failed, they choose to play the blame game and cry about affirmative action.

It snowballs from there as we’ve seen.

The bolded is literally who trump is. He feels entitled, over extends himself, fails, says the system isn't fair, and then blames a successful minority/woman for their success like that is what held them back.

It's crazy to me because wtf does Trump even have to be mad about?

He is and always has been a rich white guy. Dude inherited a million dollars from his dad and is among the most privileged people to have ever lived. How exactly is the system not fair to him when he has it better than like 99.99% of the world? The fukk does he think he's entitled to that he already doesn't have? Shyt is bewildering brehs, I just don't understand.

He has the same "i was never accepted by the establishment, so i'll show them!" thing rupert murdoch and roger ailes have/had.

It should be obvious here.....



He has tiny hands.

There has been a severe diverson of society the last 15 years. The formal far right was solely about immigration and criticizing black people whenever possible. What has happed is the Pick up artist movement had a merger or had many elements of it picked up by these groups. Now its about attracting dissaffected white males who think society is targeting them for the sins of the past. They sell them on these false ideas that women don't want them and immigrants are taking stuff from them.

Another thing no one talks about is that for all of the talk about feminism, there is a massive divide between white men and white women. This is a big part of the problem and creating a boomerang effect on the other minority groups.

People forget the old money, high society new york city rejected donald so he turned to Hollwyood. Hollywood has a habit of making our worst people wealthy. High Society types have always looked down on Hollywood for this reason, someone like Harvey Weinstein, Roger Ailes or Donald Trump having any types of major status is just a reminder of that.

Wouldn’t want too many educated people in the population...

It's been like that from the beginning of the internet. Any forum not heavily moderated will devolve into a right wing shyt hole. They are like cancer. If anything it's better than it used to be.

Every single un-moderated forum, comment section and chatroom i've seen has devolved into a white-supremacist propaganda playground.

It's actually gotten worse, NPR shut down their comments section. Fox News and Yahoo had theirs shut down for over a year before they turned it back on because of the lost of traffic from racists no longer able to comment. Some news sites disabled commenting completely because its become such a huge problem.

Not really imo. His pops wasn't a roosevelt by any means

Women of all races were told they could unite under the banner of Feminism. There's no such big thing for men. Of course, you meet the self-identifying male feminists sometimes, and they go on and on about how terrible men are and won't shut the fukk up and drink their beer, you rapidly balding IT consultant prick, we were having a good time shooting the shyt about old wrestling shows and you didn't notice we ALL rolled our eyes hard as fukk when you said "wrestling's a great example of toxic masculinity." SUCK MY dikk, TRAVIS.


Sorry.
