The so-called “alt-right” and its relationship to the conservative movement took center stage in the early hours of the Conservative Political Action Conference Thursday, and the message is clear as far as CPAC is concerned: “The alt-right ain’t right at all.”
That was the title of a speech by Dan Schneider, executive director of the American Conservative Union, the main organizer of CPAC.
Schneider noted that the best way to recognize a counterfeit dollar bill is to regularly examine authentic bills, as Treasury Department employees do. When they see a counterfeit bill, it’s like a slap in the face.“CPAC, we have been slapped in the face,” Schneider said. “There is a sinister organization that is trying to worm its way into our ranks, and we must not be duped, we must not be deceived. This is serious business.”Schneider said that while it’s important to know what conservatism is, it’s just as important to know what conservatism is not.
He said the term “alt-right” had been used for some time, but a few years ago a sinister group, white nationalists, hijacked it intentionally to confuse conservatives and the media.
This group wants to normalize itself, but he assured the CPAC crowd the alt-right is not part of the conservative movement.
The alt-right, he said, “are anti-Semites, they are racists, they are sexists.”
“They hate the Constitution, they hate free markets, they hate pluralism, they hate everything, they despise everything we believe in,” said Schneider. “They are not an extension of conservatism.
“They are nothing but garden-variety left-wing fascists!”
He explained he considers the alt-right “left-wing” because they want bigger government and less freedom.
