In WaPo, David Weigel (ahem) has a brief, laundry list piece on “What’s the alt-right? A primer”:
While reporters like Rosie Gray, Olivia Nuzzi, and Benjy Sarlin have reported on the alt-right’s success for a year, and while the Southern Poverty Law Center has closely monitored its success, the movement remains elastically defined, harboring some terms and personalities that remain obscure or impenetrable. This is a guide — which can and will be updated — to the basics.
The piece briefly discusses:
- Jean Raspail’s Camp of the Saints
- Breitbart News
- Jared Taylor
- The Political Cesspool
- Marine La Pen
- Nigel Farage
- Richard Spencer
- Sam Francis
- Walt Bismarck (Never heard of him before! – LM)
