    I wish conservatives would just say the quiet part out loud and stop insulting everyone’s intelligence. Own your bigotry. Don’t be a wuss. Oh wait. It generally has to do with pre-emptively distracting from obvious predelictions towards pedophilia. Nevermind then.

      They won’t go mask off again.

      Rebranding neo-nazis as “alt right” allowed them to ride a wave of plausible deniability onto platforms they’d never dreamed of.

      When they triumphantly revealed themselves at Unite the Right, they lost a huge amount of that ground.

      So now they never admit it, no matter how obvious they’re being. They will remain unnameable.

      Call them bigots and they’ll tell you you can’t or else you’re a bigot yourself. 100% projection and deflection, every time.
