Ben Sixsmith added,
(?) not sure how the Stalin analogy is anything close to accurate. It'd be "I'm not a commie" (old tweets) "as a proud communist,"
My point is that the popularly understood meaning of "Alt-Right" has changed just as "communism" did. (I think both the Alt-Right and communism changed less than one might think but one could be forgiven for not noticing it for at least a while.)
then it'd be stalinism at most (also, decades difference) and I'm not even sure the alt-right meaning change is true
100% true. Alt-right was “not a neocon” in 2007, but they were a big tent, and once your group is “X Y Z and also racists,” it’s going to be all racists.
those tweets are 2016 where alt-right was "frog nazis" enough famous people apologized after deleting pepe memes
Ah, you’re right.
