He’s apparently part of a twitter network of Muslim incels.

There was a Reddit thread a while back I read where a Muslim philosopher was mentioned and praised as being well respected but relatively secular because he asked a lot of questions. Wondering if this is same guy. I can't remember the context of the thread. It might have been isis related like they desecrated some thing of his or other

The comparison with the alt-right and the weatherman is good, but are we sure right wing institutions are collapsing, considering the GOP holds every lever of power, the koch and mercers of the world still exists, fox is still going strong, etc. If anything, the recent right radicalization has been a broad one, but a polarizing one, one that's happened only with in the chud echo chamber. Broad, across the larger right wing base. Even if it's clearly not over the general public.

one issue that complicates things is that in a lot of cases, people who get into the alt-right are exploited.

i think this might be more common than not and i'm talking about real alt-right, neo-nazis here. these alt-right memelords who are involved in IRL groups actively seek out vulnerable people. there is sexual abuse. remember that virulent misogyny, homophobia and transphobia often translates into sexual exploitation of women, gays and trans people -- and there are alt-right guys who do this. now you have someone trapped in that environment and is exploited and escapes -- how do they explain that if they go over to the left and their new comrades find out?

not kidding either, as there are left-wing social spaces out there dealing with this now as people have jettisoned themselves from the alt-right. in some cases, zealously condemning people who were mixed up with alt-right cliques can be counter-productive, i think.

The day reddit started caring about racism

https://www.reddit.com/user/N8theGr8/comments/8xq8sg/5_july_2018_the_day_reddit_starting_caring_about/

basically a (white) moderator of r/NotTheOnion closed a thread about a white person calling the cops on a black person with this comment



and decides to catalogue the resulting poo poo storm as it spreads around the hate subreddits, even voat (where they call for his death)

he stokes the fires a few times over the next few days even suggesting that white redditors get tagged with a jar of mayo so users know when to disregard their post and downvote them and they're so full of rage they can't tell that he's trolling them

they also can't decide if he's black or white, many of the dumber ones can't even fathom how he could possibly be white

And this:

Especially the replies to the Ubisoft bans, they fit perfectly together. Every one of these dipshits can't go two sentences without talking about "safespaces" and people nowadays having thin skin then they lose their poo poo when they get called mayo boy and told they smell like milk.
