[QUOTE="Zubaz, post: 2854855, member: 3528"] This is the sleight of hand that has been going on ever since the alt-right entered the mainstream's attention. While nobody can possibly deny the Alt-Right is a racist group, with explicitly racist origins, in the race to tie EVERYONE right of center (particularly populists that are fans of Trump) as members of "the alt-right", the net gets cast too wide, and the standard becomes meaningless. TPUSA is one of those examples. They aren't alt-right, and to the best of my knowledge haven't willingly associated with any notable . Instead, the standard gets reversed. The gist of it goes: "Racists like (some of) the things you say, that makes you associated with them". They may not like hate groups, but do hate groups like them? If the answer is yes, that gets them on the ADL's list. Of course that's a nonsense standard. I'm not a huge fan of TPUSA, and I think Charlie gets very very dishonest with how he edits his videos, and often has a double standard depending on who he is praising. But....ya know, that's his gimmick. He's a partisan hack, that's really no surprise. This "hate group" claim doesn't hold water though. Let's not pretend he was one of those in Charlottesville with a tiki-torch. [/QUOTE]
