To someone like me, it just makes them look like non-credible fools. But clearly, their networks of idiotic propaganda *are* appealing to many people. So it makes sense to try to understand how and why it works. This is the best resource I've found for that. + +Edit (22-10-2024): The alt-right playbook contains some big oversimplifications and outright misrepresentations of politics. I also don't like how the tone is also unnecessarily smug. However, it's still useful for understanding the alt-right's style of "debate". -- cgit v1.2.3
