Just how "Deplorable" are you?

[blessedwife318]

Never heard of the "alt right" till this thread. I'm assuming it is that group of "deplorables " that Hillary named. Someone described it as a "fringe" group, but it comprises 20-25% of voters according to Hillary. Hardly "fringe".

If that is the group, I'll just reiterate what I said before:

"Anyone in favor of a sane immigration policy is labeled "xenophobic". Anyone that calls islamic terrorism what it is is "Islamophobic". Any Christian that believes God made man and woman for each other, sexually, is called "homophobic". Everyone is a "racist" or "sexist" that the left just needs to shut up. and they are all "deplorable".

If that's the group, I'm a proud member of it.

Considering you quoted the post where I linked the Alt Right explaining their position on issues you cannot claim ignorance on what they stand for, but I'm going to give you a chance to make the record clear: Are you really a "proud member" of the Alt Right?

It's hard to nail down what constitutes the alt-right, but there are some common characteristics. The alt-right does not care too much about:

1. Pro-life movement
2. Free trade and/or free markets
3. Limited government and/or strict constitutionalism
4. They really hate political correctness

A common trait of the alt-right is anti-semitism, nationalism, and white pride. They call this "race realism".

The flip side of being ambivalent to limited government and strict constitutionalism, they are fans of authoritarian governments, and like Trump, they think Putin is praiseworthy as a strong leader.

The alt-right does not care too much about economic policies or really, any policies. Foreign policy is usually of some value to them as it relates to anti-immigration and how the US should treat various ethnicities.

The reason why the alt-right embraces Trump is primarily because he is politically incorrect. Another factor is his anti-immigration stance. But Trump's stance on issues is largely insignificant to the fact that he offends the establishment GOP, SJWers, the media, and liberals.

No your not you are fully engaging in it just by your last couple of posts. Again, shame on you. Very disappointed

Whether or not you believe me, I am avoiding such behavior. Sorry I have disappointed you.

So, I jumped to the end.

Whether I support Trump doesn't matter IMO.

You want a wall - your a racist.

You are pro-life - you are a sexist.

You want vetting of Syrians - you are an Islamophob.

I also cling to my God my bible and sometimes my guns.

I guess I am the quintessential DEPLORABLE!.

OK Where is the basket?!

Based on past experiences, I'd say that we have a handful of folks on here who do fall into that category whether or not they want to accept it.

 

[HankD]

In all my many years of voting I cannot remember a campaign so devoid of substantive content while overflowing with so much accusative rhetoric and above all - so much creative and insulting labeling and hate talk from both sides!

Where has my America gone?

How would one define alt right? Google is telling me

The alt-right is a segment of right-wing ideologies presented as an alternative to mainstream conservatism in the United States.

Looks like the source is wikipedia, though.
Going just by that sentence my ideology would seemingly fall into alt right, but from what people are discussing here I do not think that to be the case.

While I hold views on things that are nearly opposite to the majority here, I would say that I do not consider wanting to keep the Syrian refugees out to be "phobic". At least, not necessarily. That would depend on one's reasoning behind it. On the same vein wanting to maintain the borders better doesn't by virtue make one racist. Being prolife (and I am prolife) doesn't by virtue make you sexist. People's reasons and motivations for one thing or another is what defines those terms.

That said, I am sure there are people with those qualities that stand with Trump.

I detest Hillary and everything she stands for. Clear enough?

1) Normally, you have to be careful about making absolute statements.

2) I took one of those net political tests. I actually agree with Clinton 6% of the time,
Thus I do NOT detest everything Clinton stands for.

And that's the point. Moreover, the radical alt-right hate groups DO embrace Trump.

I'm not sure if half of Trump supporters are racists, but knowing my own extended family, it is highly probable.

I believe the "prince on the power of the air" is working overtime in his purpose to destroy mankind.

One of his favorite tactics it to use the human heart by inflaming it, provoking it to go to a verbal war and in our case between our current two-party system political figures.

It was good to see Trump back down from his usual tirade of name calling (of which both sides are guilty) with his child care entitlement program (call it what it is) announcement last night.

Your turn Mrs Clinton.

Deplorable HankD

What? your posts are exactly that behavior. It is too late to say your avoiding it you posts are it.

the problem is not what you may agree with her about but how to accomplish it.

Apparently I am not going to be able to please you. Let's just agree upon that from now on. Feel free to cheerfully ignore what I post.

What you just describes is not how the alt right defines it self as I have shown with their own writings. So I will ask you one more time because I really want to give you a chance here: are you really a "proud member" of the Alt right?

Then I would say that 6% of the time she is lying about what she stands for. Probably more than that.

Define it.

When did the subject of the thread change from "deplorables" to a new made up term called "alt right"?

 

[evenifigoalone]

Define it.
