Fictional entity created by liberals in an attempt to continue branding themselves as the left.

If it exists, this board is it.

American liberals have somehow mindfucked themselves into thinking they're left wing even though liberals everywhere else consider themselves to be right wing. This has forced these liberals to brand the actual left as the "alt-left" in order to maintain their nonsensical self-image of being the mainline left.

Some part of liberal media game to lump in a big "opinion dismissable" what's on the left of them.
Now Trump is attempting to use it but include said liberal media with it.

Alt right follow a similar pattern, except that it was genuinely shilled with some success by member of right wing movement themselves.
Very bad move imo.

Liberals and Antifa.

So, not us.

it was a meaningless term invented by the republican party to deflect from the fact that they had been hijacked by the alt -right (i.e neo-nazis)

There is no cohesive definition. People start calling some group the 'alt left' because if the alt right exists there must be an alt left somewhere. But at this point it's been used to refer to pretty much everybody who isn't a reactionary.

can't really get more edgy leftism than leftypol

Are the wobblies idpol infested?

I like the idea of the IWW, but every time I see somebody with an IWW tag on the net they're spouting idpol stuff.

This. Holla Forums has always encouraged anons to refrain from using the "alt-left" branding.

As we should continue to do so. The alt-right may be significantly larger than us, but we shouldn't mirror their tactics to grow our own ranks, lest we achieve the same results. We don't need retards like that. Simply, we are the left, and we are communists.

The people that actually call themselves the alt left are pic related.

The term is used by liberals to refer to actual leftists.

First it's ctrl-left.
Some faggots on far left wanting to control all spheres of human life.
Includes SJWs, antifa, BLM and few other groups.

"Weed philosophy" should be prosecuted, god damn!

us

A term used by liberals to make all us OG leftism followers seem even more distasteful to the American public than it already is.

So "Alt-Left" is like Kant, except bonkers.

Initially just a blanket label to cover everything from Libs who actually want some concrete progressive policies on the Dem platform to actual ideological leftists, created by the hard center, corporate DNC Libs on social media. Basically anybody who actually gives a shit enough to push for anything beyond "Here's some tax credits and I guess trans people can use the ladies room now or whatever"

Now it's being co-opted by Trump and Co. to basically refer to the same groups but as actual "terrorists" or something instead of just some ideological boogeyman.

Good fucking job, Centrists.

It's a radical labor union you faggot

That's exactly what centrists want though; from their perspective it's an amazing job. They'd happily embrace Trump as president for life if they could keep a few senate seats as sinecures for their team.

Bullshit smear invented by our SJW friends in the press, before being turned against them by Trump, exactly like fake news.

and what have they done to actually improve workers lives?

Ever? A shitton, they were huge during the most important period of American labor struggles.
Recently? Not as much buy last year they helped organize the largest prison strike in American history.

wew lad

THIS IS THE ALT LEFT
WE ARE COMING

No, this is the alt-left.

...

...

Motherfucking Google it. IWW were a huge part of American labor history.

A bunch of people ptotesting Confederate statues, no more, no less. That is according to MSM.

and now they are being bullshit like Antifa and BLM.

Apparently it’s a thing, there website is super secret though. thealtleft.com


The next Zizek. Seriously I want to do some weed then talk about philosophy.

it's in the name. alternative left, as in alternative leftist groups, not aligned with the traditional American left (aka. liberals). communists, anarchists, etc. are all alt-left. it's a way of reframing leftism as being centered or normalized around american liberalism.
