Alt-Lite

"Envy plus rhetoric equals social justice."

Alt-Lite, a portmanteau of " Alt-Right" and "Lite" is a broad ideological label describing a set of movements which portray relatively moderate views while still maintaining a right-wing opposition to mainstream politics. It is economically center-right to far-right, civically variable and culturally center-right to far-right.

Alt-Lites are generally distinguished by having a much lower interest in the issues of race as compared to Alt-Rights, usually favoring some form of Civic Nationalism or Cultural Nationalism. Instead, Alt-Lite is usually much more concerned with over the issues of culture, economics and what is being pushed by the state.

They are found in the right side of the Political Compass, with the overwhelming majority of them being in the Authoritarian and Right Unity side, with a few on the Libertarian side.

History

The term "Alt-Lite" began to be used around 2017, mostly following the aftermath of the "Unite the Right" rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, in reference to those who had criticized the rally and tried to disassociate themselves from it. However, people within the western online right-wing held to similar views since long before then. The people who in 2017 would be associated with the Alt-Lite were associated with the 'Gamergate' controversy in 2014.

Beliefs

People associated with the alt-lite have distanced themselves from the ethnic nationalism of the alt-right. As with the alt-right, the alt-lite commonly shows broad support for Donald Trump, cultural nationalism and non-interventionism. Many in the alt-lite criticize or oppose political correctness, Islam, feminism (sometimes restricted to the fourth wave), LGBT rights, welfare and illegal immigration. It has been described as a " misogynistic" and " xenophobic" movement by the Anti-Defamation League.

Alt-right figures have described Breitbart News and Steve Bannon as "alt-lite" for presenting a diluted form of alt-right ideas.

Wired has referred to the alt-lite as " the alt-right's relatively mild-mannered sibling".

Variants

Anti-SJW

Anti-SJW is an overarching but predominantly capitalist and conservative ideology in opposition to "SJWs", "woke culture" and cancel culture. It emerged in mid-2011, when " SJW" became a derogatory term and meme on Twitter and KnowYourMeme. Anti-SJWs are currently on Twitter, Reddit, KnowYourMeme and YouTube; opposing feminism along with SJWs' hypersensitivity and generally opposing left-wing ideologies. They oppose gender ideology and the current LGBTQQIP2SAAONPND+ movement; although some Anti-SJWs are LGBT, such as Blaire White. Some claim that Anti-SJWs have gotten just as hyped up as the SJWs, and that a portion of them are sexist and racist. Anti-SJWs support Elon Musk's purchase of Twitter, and claim that feminists are hypocritical about the world of Islam. Anti-SJWs are self-proclaimed defenders of free speech (except on a few occasions) and are in opposition to Progressivism, claiming that it is SJW.

Bannonism

Bannonism is a culturally right-wing to far-right, economically center-to-center-right ideology based on the views of Steve Bannon, former chairman of Breitbart and chief strategist of Donald Trump. He can be considered as being in between Alt-Right and Alt-Lite, as he's more moderate than the former but also more radical than the latter. Other than drawing from standard right-wing populist rhetoric, he has been influenced by more radical reactionary thinkers such as Julius Evola, Aleksandr Dugin, and Curtis Yarvin.

Bennettism/Liberty Hangoutism

Bennettism/Liberty Hangoutism is the political philosophy of Kaitlin Bennett, aka The Kent State Gun Girl, and Liberty Hangout, a media outlet which until recently self described themselves as being Libertarian. Bennett first gained media attention in 2018 for open carrying an AR-10 on the Kent State campus after graduating. A year later she married her husband Justin Moldow, the founder of Liberty Hangout. The two of them run Liberty Hangout, which used to describe themselves as a libertarian media outlet, and now describes themselves as a Conservative media outlet. However many describe it as promoting Catholic Fascism and Monarchism. Liberty Hangout are known for their inflammatory tweets such as wanting Donald Trump to declare himself king,[18]or saying that those who want a separation of church and state are "losers and Satanists."[19] Due to these outrageous tweets some have speculated that their Twitter account is actually a Satirical account.

Sargonism

Sargonism is a culturally center-right to right-wing, nationalist, civically moderately libertarian and economically center-right ideology based on the views of English political commentator Carl Benjamin, also known as Sargon of Akkad (his YouTube nickname), whose online content is principally against progressive, globalist, feminist, communist, and anti-capitalist viewpoints in politics and culture.

Benjamin has previously called himself a "classical liberal", despite his strong support of conservative and nationalist movements such as Brexit, with him being a former member of UKIP. He has since moved away from using the term to describe himself as has gone on to criticise the doctrine of liberalism.[20] Benjamin initially also used to identify as a social liberal, due to his strong support for socialised healthcare and welfare, even calling himself center-left; however, he has since become more economically right-wing, believing that the welfare state should be reduced.

Kiwi Farms Model

The Kiwi Farms Model is an ideology that represents the users of Kiwi Farms, an internet forum dedicated to discussing internet personalities as well as current and past events. Joshua Moon, also known as "Null," a former 8chan moderator, created Kiwi Farms in February 2013. It was originally known as CWCki Forums, and was created to discuss a frequently trolled autist artist named Christine Weston Chandler, formerly known as Christopher "Christian" Weston Chandler, or simply "Chris-Chan," who is best known online for creating the infamous webcomic Sonichu. It soon became known as "Kiwi Farms" in 2014. Many people from different backgrounds have threads devoted to them on the website, including LGBT+ people, disabled people, "lolcows" (foolish people who don’t understand that their behaviours are amusing to others), feminists, internet personalities, journalists, political figures, the BreadTube community, and people on the Alt-Right. Many threads on the site consist of and critique transgender people, who are commonly regarded as being mentally ill by Kiwi Farms users, with the terms "troon" and "tranny" being pejoratively used to describe them. When discussing transgender people, users frequently refer to them by their "deadname," use their original pronouns, and often accuse transgender females (or "trans-identified males" as they are known as on the site) of being "AGPs" (autogynephilic transsexuals - males, typically heterosexual, who have sexual fantasies over the thought of being a female).

Politically, Kiwi Farms has users with a wide range of political beliefs; however, opposing transgenderism is widely accepted on the website, with TERFs and other anti-trans figures being highly regarded. Despite having Alt-Lite viewpoints in general, users have critiqued many Alt-Lite figures, including Carl Benjamin and Jordan Peterson, as well as members of the Alt-Right, most notably Ethan Ralph and Nick Fuentes, with allegations of Nick being a closeted homosexual who has watched transgender porn.

Seibtism

Seibtism is culturally right-wing and right-libertarian, in which it is based on the political views of political activist and self-styled " anti-Greta" Naomi Seibt. It is based on Anarcho-Capitalism, especially influenced by F.A. Hayek, defense of Direct Democracy, opposition to immigration (what got her into politics), opposition to abortion and maritime rescue and covid denial, especially against the PCR test. One of her most controversial things is her denial of climate change, especially activist Greta Thunberg, also being against climate protection measures. Along with accusations of her being Alt-Right, especially for herself declaring a fan of Stefan Molyneux and her saying in 2019 that whites come in being oppressed by Jews. She stated that she has the possibility that Planned Parenthood would be trading body parts from aborted fetuses and that she was temporarily convinced that the Wayfair company would offer children on its website, she also had dealings with QAnon. In 2021, her YouTube account was banned.

Robinsonism

Robinsonism is culturally right-wing and right-unity, in which it is based on the political views of Tommy Robinson, a English anti-Islam campaigner, convicted criminal and one of the UK’s most prominent far-right activists. He was a political advisor to former UK Independence Party (UKIP) leader Gerard Batten.

Robinson has been active in far-right politics for many years. He was a member of the British National Party (BNP), a neo-fascist and white nationalist political party, from 2004 to 2005. For a short time in 2012, he was joint vice-chairman of the far-right British Freedom Party (BFP). He co-founded the far-right English Defence League (EDL) in 2009 and led it until 8 October 2013. In 2015, he became involved with the development of Pegida UK, a now-defunct British chapter of the German far-right Pegida. From 2017 to 2018, he wrote and appeared in videos on the Canadian far-right website Rebel News.

Robinson has been convicted for multiple crimes involving violence, stalking, financial and immigration fraud, drug possession, public order offences, and contempt of court. He has served at least four separate prison terms: for assault in 2005, for using false travel documents to enter the United States in 2012, for mortgage fraud in 2014, and 13 months in 2018 for contempt of court after publishing a Facebook Live video of defendants entering a law court (contravening a court order that disallows reporting on such trials while proceedings are ongoing). In August 2018, due to procedural errors, he was released on bail pending a new hearing. In July 2019, he was again found guilty of contempt of court at the retrial and was committed at the Old Bailey to nine months in prison․ Before his sentencing, he appeared on the American far-right website InfoWars to appeal for political asylum in the U.S. He was released from prison on 13 September 2019 after nine weeks.

In July 2021, Robinson was found to have libelled a 15-year-old refugee at a school in Huddersfield and was ordered to pay £100,000 plus legal costs, although he had filed for bankruptcy in March 2021. In October 2021, he was made subject to a five-year stalking order for harassing journalist Lizzie Dearden and her partner. In November 2023, Robinson was charged and bailed under the Anti-Social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act, in relation to the March Against Antisemitism. In January 2024, he denied the charge after appearing in court, with a trial in London set for April.

Personality

He often hangs out with Right-Wing Populism, and was seen storming Capitol Hill with him. He constantly claims that he is not xenophobic, but sometimes he hints at racist comments. He also hates "SJWs", and thinks they are all socialists. Has the personality of a right-wing podcaster or a militia member.

Stylistic Notes

  • He gets most of his "news" from right-wing Facebook pages.
  • He loves people like Steve Bannon and Enrique Tarrio.
  • He never got the vaccine for COVID -19 and usually ignored lockdown rules.
  • He supported most of the Trucker Convoy Protesters in Canada.
