Great read, Oliver, I remember a lot of girls I went to school with posted photos on VSCO that showed what they really needed was therapy. Also, I like how the Sam Hyde breakthrough for Buzzfeed was just looking at like his past 20 tweets and that was the huge "scoop"

yeah, that's how you do the news these days. i participated in a similar scoop with VICE where I just looked at some tweets that had been liked ... this was how you did it in 2016 ... this was how you "did the work" and how people got "exposed" with zero-dollar reporting budgets

Vice says Luckey is alt-right, then lists a bunch of tweets he "liked" on Twitter, but I don't see any of them by actual alt right people. Mike Cernovich is alt lite, not right, ditto Paul Jos. Watson.

For sure. I think some of them went by the alt-right label pre-December 2016 since there was a little more cohesion between the alt-lite/right before heilgate and the Cernovich/Baked Alaska fallout

Yes. The split happened when Trump got inaugurated.

To the “intrepid BuzzFeed reporter,” everyone from Joe Rogan to Chapo is alt-right (the alt-left is frequently mentioned as crypto-alt-right in those quarters)

Rogan I've heard, but Chapo? That's nuts. If someone tells me Rogan is alt right I just end the conversation. Waste of time.

There have been several “takes” about how the “dirtbag left” is just the “alt right” for a different audience of racist bros. Bizarre, but they do well on twitter

Except that the dirtbag left wants a violent socialist revolution, which the alt right wouldn't dig.
