    I watched a documentary on Netflix last night. I think it as "Alt-Right" or something similar. It was very informative and gave me a different perspective (or remove some of my ignorance on the subject). I really respect Daryle Lamont Jenkins and what he stands for. I have no problem with anyone standing up and exposing these white nationalist/white supremacy groups. After watching, I was like...ok. I get it. @Sweet Lou 4 2 was right. I knew nothing about their real purpose. It also confirmed for me that these agitators running around with Antifa signs and BLM signs are doing those two causes a disservice.

    Also, I got the feeling that Richard Spencer is g@y.....not that there's anything wrong with it. I'm sure his base would flip if this was confirmed. I kept thinking it and then he was asked about gay whites. He said they are welcome ... and then went on about it being a gene or germ or some other schism. He's certainly rationalized it for himself.

    Those groups certainly give white Trump supporters a bad stigma. "Not all Trump supporters are racists. But all racists are Trump supporters" This seemed like a pretty logical quote from the documentary. Except what I'm seeing on twitter, the news, etc... is that there's plenty on both sides. I'm calling out my side. I don't identify with anything they stand for.

    I think I promised I would in a earlier post or something. He was definitely on my mind when I watched it. But hey, when you're wrong your wrong and you move on. No point in digging your heels in.
