Analysis of 3B Reddit comments shows the alt-right is getting stronger

This seems to me like the natural counter reaction to other things that are also "getting stronger":

* Anti capitalism

* Political correction "enforcement" (can't really think of a better way to put it)

* Desire to stop, slow, or destroy what's perceived as white privilege

* anti-fascists movements who's members themselves seem quite fascist

* Stop, slow, or destroy what's perceived as a patriarch society.

Personally I don't like either groups here. There's too much extremism going on. Infact I think these groups are on a collision course unlike anything we've seen in a long time.

More chatter doesn't mean more people. This is something that needs to be stated if we're going to actually understand the social dynamics at play here. And the fact that more people use a certain word doesn't mean they're part of the alt-right. In fact, I've seen the word cuck used by leftists to mock alt-right provocateurs like Chris Cantwell as of late. So, I think the analysis needs to refine its approach.

This article got off on such a bad foot that it shattered and splintered into thousands of lacerating shards that sent the whole thing tumbling to its knees... I have no problems with calling things by their names, such as 'shitty Nazis', etc, but conflating terms to forward your own (or someone else's) political gamesmanship is dishonest and slimy.

Couldn't it also just mean they're getting louder? Louder /=/ stronger.

what i really want to know, is how they got this reddit dataset =O
