Wait, what? CPAC organizer says alt-right is a "left wing fascist group?"

These people simply have no grasp on reality. The leftists have co-opted the term "alt-right?"

I don't think they even know what the term "fascist" means. And they're spending their Alt-Reality Fest shitting all over Trumpsky.

This is the most bizarre thing I've ever seen.

Say it often enough and it sticks to the viscous grey matter of their minions.

It wasn't true then and it's obviously not true now.

2017 CPAC, sponsored in part by Breitbart and featuring panel speaker Steve Bannon.

Alternative Facts, people.

and since they're too godly to say things like "a gang of pimply, pencil necked little bastards who need to drop the propaganda, get drunk and fuck each other senseless and stay out of our hair," they call them bad political words. Well, words they think are bad.

And no, they have no clue what those words mean, nor do they have to. Remember who their base is. If you don't remember, watch "crazy sprinkler lady". And she's one of the truly articulate ones. Most of these people just hear a droning on, punctuated by buzzwords and catch phrases to make them applaud. They know if somebody says "left wing fascist," they hate all the same people the crowd does so the applause is prolonged.



I think we all need reminders from time to time about who these people really are.
