Are you a politically homeless liberal? Don't recognize your values in the current Left? Does the statement "I didn't leave the Left the Left left me" resonate with you?
You might be part of the Alt Left.
Take a few minutes to read this article - you could call it our manifesto - on The Great Schism that has split the Left in recent years, see if you recognize yourself.
If you do, please stick around. Help build this community and this movement, and let's rebuild the Left from the inside out.
Wtf was MSNBC thinking with this headline?
They saying he might not be the killer and he didn't stand a chance at getting a fair trial? Or that they admit he IS the killer, but are upset because ppl were mean to him?
This is a perverse reversal of where sympathies should lie
@Notdojaaa@cooly_bobby No need to infantilize her friend, who as an adult woman presumably has agency. If she didn't want too she'd have said no. "Made" is the context there is clearly a figure of speech
Six y/o old girl in Afghanistan is married to an old man, a union blessed by the girls parents, their religion, and society.
But sure, go on and tell us how "all cultures are equal" and the West is "just as bad" 🙄🤦🏼♂️
Ah, the classic immigration motte-and-bailey fallacy: because high performing Japanese, Indian and Chinese immigrants punch above their weight in the economy, we should therefore accept unlimited poor, unskilled and uneducated Somalis, Afghans, and Palestinians.
It's economics!
Reminder:
Only 14% of US residents are immigrants.
But immigrants are responsible for 36% of aggregate innovation.
Two-thirds of this contribution is due to making their native-born collaborators better.
Wow the internal polling on immigration must be a nightmare for Kier to be saying this.
Credit where it's due, it's a step in the right direction, not any other liberal parties around the West even speaking these necessary truths.
Let's see if he follows through tho.
Keir Starmer says the UK needs to “reduce immigration. significantly.”
“Every area of the immigration system, work, family and study will be tightened up so we have more control.”
Starmer added that there will be “English language requirements.”
Something has gone very wrong in the West when ppl are being charged with "harassing" Islam.
Islam cannot be "harassed", it is not a person, it's a religious-political ideology. Should we charge leftists for harassing Capitalism? The West needs to wake up, this is an invasion
A far bigger problem in the West than Islamophobia (a nonsense word used only to silence dissent) but Islamosupremacy.
How can there be discrimination against Muslims when they are favored by police and given free reign to block streets to pray in a show of dominance?
The mayor of Toronto, wearing a hijab, met with the city’s Muslim community leaders to discuss what they consider the biggest national problem in Canada: Islamophobia.
The two Sacred Cows of the Left - the LGBTQ+ and Muslim migrants - are on an unavoidable collision course, and I can tell you right now who is going to win (hint: it ain't the men doing pirouettes in their onesies)
Immigration is broadly speaking a good thing. But we MUST apply a values test to ensure that all newcomers share our values in order to promote social congestion and harmony.
Our values are not built into the land here, they are built into the people. If we import large numbers of ppl who hate us and our way of life, we are committing social sui¢ide
This is illegal, and the inevitable result of the Left's obsession with inserting Identity Politics into every corner of society.
We cannot defeat racism and discrimination against ppl based on race with "good" racism and discrimination against ppl based on race.
Identity Politics only perpetuates the racism and discrimination that the progressive Left is supposed to be against.
🚨BREAKING: West Yorkshire Police are banning White recruits in its latest Diversity Drive
- This blatant racism is allowed under 'positive discrimination'
White people are once again the only race you can legally discriminate against in the UK
Insane woke Left idiots: "All cultures are equally valid and you're racist if you think otherwise"
(Some) other cultures: "marriage between adult men and 9 y/o girls is perfectly acceptable!"

@Clary_fritz @Positivteacha Do you think men can teach girls how to be women?
If not, explain why you think women can teach boys how to be men without sounding like an ideological automaton
@Positivteacha Sure and the best way to do that is to have good men teach them how to be men. Women cannot teach boys to be men anymore than men can reach girls how to be women. That's shouldn't be remotely controversial
@stepfanie It's a nightmare. I don't even understand how the powder is so gross considering it has no taste, something in me just rejects it.
I've been taking 10 mg/day since Wednesday tho, interesting things happening......
Right now it's just right here Marco but I like where you're going and absolutely that's the next steps.
Probably in the next couple weeks I'm going to create a space for exactly that, because I don't want thos to be just a place where ppl comment on my posts, I want the community to have their OWN discussions seperate from me. I'll engage of course, but my role would be just another voice, same as anyone else. Ppl can post their own topics of discussion, sort of like "what is the Alt Left position on this?" and we can all discuss it, debate it, and arrive at a consensus position.
I'm gonna be looking into what's the best platform for that. It would need to be a place where members can post their own topics, like a chat board.
If anyone is reading this has any suggestions for that kind of platform, please comment here
The woke Left has gone absolutely batshit insane on several issues (trans, identity politics) but immigration is one too.
We on the Alt Left not give a flying fu¢k how foreign rapists will be treated in their home country for being rapists. Perhaps if our government cared as much about the rights of our victims as THEIR governments do, we wouldn't be in this mess in the first place.
It's time for an anti-woke liberal movement to step forward and that is the Alt Left. Read our manifesto and if what we're about resonates with you, please like and follow this account.
The most important thing we can do right now is organize in one place. Once they see how many of us there are (and there are millions that are Alt Left liberals) they will have no choice but to address our concerns and move back towards a place of sanity.
Here's the basic structure of the Alt Left movement is built on. There is much to be filled in, and my intention is to do that through this account. If this sounds like you, follow & help shape this movement so the left will once again reflect our values

If you wanted to find an example that perfectly encapsulates @GadSaad 's concept of "sui¢idal empathy" in just one headline, this is it.
The Left has lost its way, a new path is needed. The Alt Left is that path; muscular anti-woke liberalism willing to fight for its values against threats from both sides.
Read our manifesto below in the comments to see what we're all about, if you recognize yourself, please follow us here. Help build this movement.
