I was looking up the old Capture the Flag hijinks the anon's pulled on Shiah Lebeouf and saw this term for the first time in years.

Why did the left abandon this term? I kind of liked it.

The alt right took over and is now the mainstream.

It’s just called normal now. Like it used to be.

They found out from the left that they were actually fascists and have been trying to figure out what the hell they’re talking about ever since.

They rebranded us as MAGA Republicans.

I like the change, thanks Dims!

It morphed into the “America First” movement.

I remember when Hillary tried to introduce the "alt Right" into the vocabulary and the Media was supposed to run with it.

The way she was describing it, I didn't think being Alt Right was so bad.

But I think they figured it was too confusing and just calling everyone "extreme" and "Far" Right instead.

They unwisely added "Ctl" and "Del" to the movement at the same time.

Same thing that happened to ”social justice warriors” morphing into woke, the alt right phase ran its course and splintered into MAGA and america first amongst various other right wing groups.

These label like alt right and SJW are both dated relics of mid-late 2010s politics
