The news is blowing up with discussions about the alt-right. What the heck is going on and what does it mean to be part of the alt-right?
In short, alt-right is the new term being used to describe the group of people who got Trump elected. But the media is framing alt-right as extreme neo-Nazi racists and bigots. The idea is to use this new term (alt-right) and tie it to racist ideas and then link it to Trump. Anyone who supports Trump would then be tied to the Alt-Right movement and be associated with racists and bigots.
It is a creation of the media, and if we're not careful, we could get dropped into it. After all, it was the third party voters who cost Hillary the election. :-)
We've also go an AMA session today so I'll be answering your questions. Don't miss this episode.
