   @moonman @zemichi the funny thing is when a naive SWPL will start writing about the alt-right and their first googling will give them quotes from SPLC and the ADL which they pepper in their article as if they're these impartial non-biased groups standing up for equality. i still think the best way of understanding the alt-right is with the anti-biotic resistant strain of superbug metaphor. at some point people will begin to adapt around the weak buzzword shit people have been using since the 70s

     This upcoming Clinton speech about the alt-right is going to be a shitshow, I'm convinced of it.
     
     If I hear the words "anime" or "nazi frog" I will freak.

     @zemichi she never gets into specifics, these speech writers rely on hand-wavy get out clauses to stay adaptive and never put their chips down. expect a bunch of emotive pozzwords like troubling and toxic and divisive and other shit. they have no fucking idea what they're talking about.

     @augustus @zemichi the alt-right took everyone, including the SPLC by surprise. I seriously doubt anybody on her team even knows what the fuck is going on, it's going to just be a bunch of noise about muh racism muh national original sin.

     @augustus @moonman @zemichi Is there a single source I can learn about this initialism salad? I don't know SWPL, SPLC and ADL.

     @clacke @moonman @zemichi there isn't a single source, you have to wade through these nettles using your own hands, but, via TRS (yet another acronym for "therightstuff") a SWPL = "The kind of person parodied on the "Stuff White People Like" blog. Liberal, white hipster douchebags. Pronounced "Swipple" in singular, "Sweeple" in plural." SPLC and ADL are easily googlable.

     I don't recognize SWPL.
     
     SPLC is Southern Poverty Law Center: It is authoritative in cataloging right-wing hate groups.
     
     The ADL is the Anti-Defamation League. They're okay on hate groups and Holocaust-deniers, but they're partial towards Israel against Palestine.
