If you have any doubt, you need look no further than this.
When a group of white men stand up and shout, “Heil Trump! Heil victory!” and raise their right arms in salute, there can be no other interpretation.
We CANNOT normalize this behavior by giving it a nice, sterile, innocuous nickname. We MUST call it out for what it is.
I have decided that whenever I see the term “alt-right,” I’m going to leave a polite comment as follows:
“Please stop using the term ‘alt-right.’ We cannot normalize this kind of behavior. They are neo-Nazis and should be referred to as such.”
I hope others will join me in doing so.
