White nationalist alt-right leader: We’re ‘mainstream’ now ‘and we’re not going away’
Richard Spencer spoke to Kelly McEvers on NPR.
Click here for reuse options!Richard Spencer now runs a small think tank that pushes alt-right ideas. To be clear, the alt-right movement is also a white nationalist movement that’s associated with racism, misogyny and anti-Semitism. What the alt-right wants, Spencer says, is an awakening of identity politics, meaning white identity politics.
RICHARD SPENCER: This is the first time we’ve really entered the mainstream, and we’re not going away. I mean this is just the beginning. And I’m very excited…
I think we need to get beyond thinking about immigration just in terms of illegal immigration. Illegal immigration is not nearly as damaging as legal immigration. Legal immigration – they’re here to stay. Their children are here and so on.

The rot has entered the bloodstream of America. We need to change our diet and take some antibiotics.

What? No denials or outrage from any republicans yet? Lunatic fringe is now the ‘alt-right’ and they are mainstream? They must be to busy making america great again.

Personally, I think it’s a mistake to call them ‘alt-right’, they should be called what they truly are.

I would not bet on it. trump, may not invented these heathens, but they surely invented him.

Yeah, racists were a real popular thing in 1928. Then they started moving into the closet. So that “not going away” seems less than credible. Racism is like mixing stripes and checks on your wardrobe – might be a short-lived fad, might have devoted adherents, but it will NEVER be the norm.
