Introduction to this blog

Hello! I am a person who likes to argue with people on the internet. I have gotten myself into many an argument where both parties come away better for having engaged each other, but in the past year or so I have gotten myself into more and more bad faith arguments. These arguments tend to be with people on the alt right, or who are parroting alt right talking points. The more violence seems to escalate in the right, the more I find myself noticing dog whistles and wanting to engage people in discussion to dissuade them from their views.

In my research into alt-right strategy, I have found that they will get into arguments with leftists and liberals to waste their time. That’s an amazing strategy! Not only does it waste time someone could put toward making blog posts debunking specific comments, but it also makes the person who has tricked the leftist or liberal look like they’ve (”they” referring to the troll) won.

Well, I don’t want to dance in circles for the alt-right anymore, I’m kind of sick of that tbh. As I see questionable comments on forums and in comments of videos, I want to take apart what the comment literally says, what the comment implies, and why that line of thinking is dangerous. This will be the basic formula I envision, although there will likely be many exceptions.

My main focus will be on comments that assist the alt right in some kind of way. Of course there is rhetorical fuckery going on within every ideology, but frankly, the alt right is the most pernicious and far reaching of these ideologies. I want to do my part to put them in their place, which sure as hell is NOT in the main stream.
