Talk:Alt-right glossary

"remove kebab" copypasta
it's even more bizarre than it looks. Apparently Tupac is "aliv" and "a wizard" who will kill all the "Turks" with "rap magic" (everything's in quotes because those are all from the copypasta)--2600:4040:475E:F600:3141:B452:720B:901C (talk) 02:11, 17 January 2023 (UTC)

Linguistic conspiracy
The linguistic basis for this glossary is, in my view, problematic. It supposes that language use is actually a strategy of a language group. The preface begins

"The hijacking of these harmless terms is one of their main strategies, as they aim to mask their blatant neo-Nazism; as always, listening to context and method of usage is important for separating innocuous usage from malicious cover."

The implication that this so-called group is integrated well enough to have its own language is likely to be gratuitous. Even if this were possible the result would be an Alt-right Creole, which it certainly is not. However, language forms spontaneously as needed and is seldom permanant enough to establish a definite alternative normative meaning in otherwise heterogeneous groups. A problem with this statement is the faulty reification device that allows the use of the term "strategy". This depends upon the fallacy: people who use the same language are in some ways very much the same. An alternative modern view in linguistics might be language use does not arise as a strategy, but because it is a mental form of mimesis.UncleKrampus (talk) 18:47, 30 January 2023 (UTC)
 * I think the cohesiveness of this group seemed a lot clearer in the period 2015-2021, coinciding with tRumpism and appearing on 4chan/8chan and largely uncensored Twitter & Reddit groups. Bongolian (talk) 18:58, 30 January 2023 (UTC)

N-tower addendum
It looks like very few people are going for the full N-tower anymore, simply content to liking the initial post and moving on. It seems "N" alone (see most of this guy's replies) is enough for them to wink at each other now. Twentydragon (talk) 12:28, 26 February 2023 (UTC)

add reptilian
the reptilian conspiracy theory is a lot like the Qanon conspiracy theroy and i think adding it in somewhere would be helpfull

Any sources for alternative use of 🧃 emoji?
The alt-right are trying to use 🧃 as a dog-whistle on Twitter, can't find any articles though.
