Opinion/Letter: Alt-left helps fuel strength of alt-right – The Daily Progress

Posted: August 6, 2017 at 5:34 pm

The alt-right: a declining number of angry, sad white supremacists who want to return to Americas past with its glories, prejudices and evils. They have ignored the Golden Rule (Do unto others as you would have them do unto you), crave publicity for their cause, and are extremely fortunate that they live in this rare country that allows freedom of speech (otherwise, they would be dead).

The best way to deal with this is to ignore them. Give them no publicity or attention. They dry up and disappear.

But, no, enter the alt-left: an increasing number of equally angry, sad Americans of all colors, some of whom want to eliminate everything about America, including its presence.

Some of the alt-left are thrilled to have the alt-right provide them an excuse to justify their own hateful agenda. They also ignore the Golden Rule, crave publicity for their cause of destruction, and are extremely fortunate that they currently live in this rare country that allows freedom of speech (otherwise, they would be dead).

A pox on both their houses.
