Dear Alt-Right and SJWs: You Should Both Reject Identity Politics – The Rebel

Identity politics refers to the people of a religion, race, or social background forming exclusive alliances for political agendas and wider cultural movements.

The significant difference between identity politics and, lets say, regular politics, is that this form of politics is rooted in personal identity. Therefore, disagreements take on whole new levels.

When you disagree with a Nazi, for example, youre not simply disagreeing with them on social policy; youre also disagreeing with who they are as a person.

And when youre disagreeing with Black Lives Matter members, they think youre disagreeing with who they are as a person, in the deepest fundamental sense.

As I'll explain, this type of thinking, at its roots, goes back to Karl Marx and led to the deaths of 100 million people in the 20th century.

This is my warning to you, Alt-Righters & SJWs:

When you partake in identity politics, youre playing with fire.

What are your ideal worlds, Richard Spencer or Yusra Khogali?

What do you have to do in order to achieve that ideal world? What are you willing to do? What are you followers willing to do?

Now, think about Nazi Germany & Soviet Union...

CPAC invites alt-right Milo Yiannopoulos to keynote for his hatred, disinvites him over pedophilia – Daily Kos

Yes, it turns out that the "liberals" who don't like alt-right "Milo" may have had a point. Why, maybe he isan odious human being who doesn't deserve a platform for spewing a constant stream of hate masquerading as "edgy" half-comedy. It turns out that a ideological platform no more substantive than liking whatever liberals don't like will, sooner or later, end up with you shaking hands with supporters of things like child rape. Go figure.

But note that Milo's support for anti-Semiteswasn't the thing that did him in. His advocacy for the nation's most prominent white supremacists wasn't it. His bizarre trolling episodesseemingly devoted to nothing more than being mind-numbingly hateful and offensive and celebrating as"funny" saner peoples condemnations of his anticswas enough to consider him a "conservative standard bearer." None of his past statements were enough to keep him from being invited to speak as one of the top "conservative" voices in the movementuntil they found out about the pedophilia bit. And considering the habits of the now-sitting president, who both bragged about and who was confirmed to have invited himself into teenager's changing rooms while the contestants dressed for his beauty competitions, it seems even the pedophilia has some fudge factor built in.

Meanwhile, the folks at Milo's day job apparently don't quite know what to do with him either. Breitbart "News" was, like CPAC, fine with their writer promoting anti-Semitism, xenophobia, racism, misogyny and whatever else he could stuff into his self-promoting appearances and columns, but now some of them are threatening to themselves walk if he doesn't get the boot.

That video in question, by the way? It's over a year old. Nobody thought it disqualified him from being a "conservative standard bearer" for a full year, while they were shouting about liberals oppressing him and while the now-president snuffled that well maybe if universities weren't going to let him speak in their own venues maybe those universities should lose their funding. So is the problem that he recorded the video in the first place, or is the problem just that it's creating publicity problems now that his fellow conservatives find themselves attached to it as well?

Help! I Think My Dog Is Supporting The Alt-Right – Huffington Post

Im saddened, but I cant say Im surprised. It was only a matter of time before someone in my own network found comfort in this despicable movement. I just didnt think it would happen under my own roof. Or should I say ruff?

Thats right, in case you missed that incredible joke, Im referring to my dog, Rex. Allow me to explain.

It all started a few weeks back. I started noticing some abnormal behavior. For instance, on our walks, Rex (who is a male purebred golden retriever) would start barking at the Black Labs and Irish Terriers on our street. Sure, I thought it was weird, but I didnt say anything.

Things grew stranger. One day I came home to find him peeing on the latest issue of The New York Times a clear statement regarding his thoughts about free press. THE PRESS IS IN PLACE TO PROTECT CITIZENS! I screamed. The next day? I dropped him off at the groomer for an appointment. When I picked him up his hair was extremely short on the sides and long on top. I certainly did not ask for that haircut. What in Elizabeth Warrens name is going on? I thought. To make matters worse, I found 12 Twitter accounts (all with egg avatars) attached to our IP address.

Thats when I began to talk to my friends. Was I this out of touch with the Middle-America dog community? Was I so trapped inside my own elite dog-bubble that I couldnt see this coming? I mean, I know white men support Trump, but white dogs? They thought I was just being paranoid.

I started having a recurring nightmare. Id walk into my house and hear a muffled kind of sound. Id follow the noise into my living room and see my dog barking into a burner phone. When I picked the phone up to see who was on the other side the caller ID would read Richard Spencer with a heart emoji next to it. Id wake up in a sweat clutching my Barack Obama action figure.

To this day I still dont know what to believe. I know it may sound farfetched, but given our current political climate I wouldnt be shocked. If others are feeling comfortable enough to hold KKK rallies and openly support white supremacy, then whos to say our dogs arent having similar thoughts? Do you know what your dog is doing while youre at work?

Heres a tip if youre concerned. Set your TV to CNN when you leave in the morning. If you come back and its on FOX or if Tucker Carlson Tonight is being recorded, you know somethings up.

You can call me crazy. Heck, tell me Im insane. Think what youd like. But dont be surprised if you see my dog on Bill Maher sometime soon.
