"Perhaps the best antidote to the growth of the alternative right is, simply, a good alternative."

That's a good thought. I had never heard of the alt-right until a few months ago, and in fact a commenter here at Snapzu was concerned that the site was going to be overrun with alt- righters was the first I ever heard of it. To me it's just another faction of extremist views, like a religious splinter from a main orthodoxy. And that is what America is struggling through. What is it now. What is the orthodoxy of America. There is one thing clear, there is a rebellion against the establishment and what is going to replace it is uncertain...and that generates fear.
