Alt-Left Memes & Gifs
image
Meme reads: "They say you don't exist, but can you pass this test? YOU MIGHT BE ALT-LEFT IF..." Frame 1: "Che Guevara is your hero." Frame 2: "You wrap your electric meter in tinfoil." Frame 3: "You consider Taco Bell to be cultural appropriation." Frame 4: "You need a safe space to shield you from reality." Frame 5: "You would never allow yourself to be vaccinated." Frame 6: "Free speech for me, but not for thee." Frame 7: "You believe jet exhaust is a government plot to poison you." Frame 8: "You agree with the alt-right more than the liberal left." (Two hands are shown shaking with both people saying "The Clintons should be in prison.")
*Full disclosure: I respect Che Guevara's motivation (not necessarily his actions or allies), but this meme was too good to pass up for one disagreement ;).

Oh, nononononono. No. No! You did NOT just associate friggin' Yoda with your inane far-right. You did NOT just associate us with the Dark Side. This means war!
News Flash, lady cuntface, it was the friggin' Sith-led EMPIRE that was an opressive, xenophobic fascist state. Far-right is, by definition, fascist. Your Orange Emprah and his buttlickers are racist. So you are either lying like usual, or more delusional than we thought (and that's saying something). Not to mention that it's the Dark Side that's empowered by fear and hatred. Two things that your far-right are infamous for spreading.
Your failure is now complete!
Granted, I think the Empire was cool in certain ways(*), but that doesn't mean I'd want myself or anyone to live in it unless it had some serious improvements.
(*)If I lived in the New Republic I admit would have associated more with the more moderate parts of the Centrists, rather than the average Populists, but eh...
For every good point here, Lady Checkmate says something truly bonkers. It is true, for example, that I regularly see people praise murderous communists of the past and proceeding to clutch pearls when someone suggests that maybe the right doesn't have a monopoly on violence. On the other hand, she herself is defending the "both sides" comment, made in response to an incident organized by and for unambiguous Nazis. It is true that some on the left reject science on the grounds of pharmaceutical corporations sitting in their corporate offices being all corporationy. But even more common is right wingers rejecting that same science for whatever their idiotic reasons are.
@Nemo
Don't get me wrong, I think extreme left is just as bat-shit crazy as extreme right is. See the "Horseshoe Theory" for my beliefs on it.
Regardless, the extreme right seems to be far more vocal and obvious these days, so I'm focusing more on them.
Someone shpuld tell lady that the anti-vaccine movement is a problem on the left and the right. Both sides have people who are agianst vaccines for different reasons. And she thinks chemtrail conspiracy theorists are alt-left? Or that big government conspiracies are alt-left? Uh what?
Actually that first image maybe isn't wrong about the true Alt-left which.
Here is a man being given an award by his then Commander-in-Chief: nary a decade earlier his Supreme Commander, and for his service to his country:

.50 cal. rounds from six Browning machine guns in a P-51 Mustang did infinitely worse to Nazis who thought they had the right to do infinitely worse with their 'Freeze Peach' during WWII than baseball bats/fists ever could.
Gen. Chuck Yeager (USAF, Ret) is infinitely more than Antifa: and y'know what? He even refused to endorse Donald Fart; the fact Chuck is a veteran of Vietnam should give you a clue for a Zimbabwean Dollar.
So unless you're prepared to say to his face - with video proof uploaded to YouTube - that he's wrong in denying those pre -neo-Nazis of their 'Freeze Peach': because Shitler & his Wehrmacht = Donald Fart & all Salt-rightists, Checkmate, Lady.
You'll be admitting that what's done to deny Salt-rightists of their 'Freeze Peach' is more -than right every second you're not , CL: for Chuck Yeager was as Anti fa as it's possible to be.
Certainly what he did against the Wehrmacht, Gestapo & SS on the ground in France with the Resistance. Question: Were those heroes who liberated their country from the Donald Fart-esque Shitler terrorists ...?!
So... Lady Checkmate respects Che Guevara's motivation (if not his actions or allies). 1 point.
She needs a safe space to shield her from reality. Infact she'll ban anyone who intrudes upon it. 2 points.
She does not believe in free speech. (Explanation required here. As the admin of her own 'safe space' on the internet she is perfectly entitled to forbid certain people from coming in. However, as she has also criticised FaceBook for banning right-wingers, it is therefore safe to infer that she herself would consider her own activities censorious of 'free speech'.) 3 points.
She does agree more with the alt-right than the liberal left. A definite four points.
I, Citizen Justin, get just one (Che Guevara, if not his actions or allies... we agree on that). So that makes her four times as 'alt-left' as me.
I don't think Lady gets the first image. Then again she doesn't realize she's far right.
@Anon-e-moose , and better yet. The father of memes.
You agree with the alt-right more than the liberal left.
In Oceania, the prevailing philosophy is called Ingsoc, in Eurasia it is called Neo-Bolshevism and in Eastasia it is called by a Chinese name usually translated as Death-Worship, but perhaps better rendered as Obliteration of the Self. The citizen of Oceania is not allowed to know anything of the tenets of the other two philosophies, but he is taught to execrate them as barbarous outrages upon morality and common sense.
Actually, the three philosophies are barely distinguishable and the social systems which they support are not distinguishable at all. Everywhere there is the same pyramidal structure, the same worship of a semi-divine leader, the same economy existing by and for continuous warfare.
I hope the old comments can be migrated over, I recall this one, just like all of Gingham’s posts, having some good ones.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
