>Some Medieval Studies professors are worried that the “alt-right” is co-opting the discipline to promote a “fantasy” of the Middle Ages with undertones of “white supremacy.”

>Following the 2017 "International Medieval Conference," several attendees complained that white, male professors--rather than people of color--delivered lectures about "otherness" in the Middle Ages.

Is /his/ part of the alt right conspiracy to erase PoC from medieval history?

but "otherness" has been proven to be a pseudoscientific concept and so has no place in a serious academic lecture and whatever the reasons for the lack of diversity it is not due to exclusion, so there is no problem

Why do people pretend like the "alt-right" is an actual thing beyond virgin teenagers on the internet? They do realize right-wing, non-neocons still exist and have existed for quite some time, right?

Furthermore, why would you complain about that shit? It's like saying the African Studies department has too many black people in it who care about black people history.

This is why people are so easily able to create the leftist strawman of wanting to destroy white people's culture because they literally want us to stop glorifying our own history. Something that EVERY culture does, but we're not allowed to.

This is why multiculturalism doesn't work. People of both sides use it as an excuse.

>muh whitey holding me down wahhhh

Everything would be better if they just went back to where they came from and stayed there.

You seem to be on the drink right now from this horrendous, unintelligible post. I'm not Christian, but you do realize it's Catholics that have the reputation for drunken fools right, not proddies?

Additionally Baptism/protestantism isn't culture in itself, it is a manifestation of the culture that exists to reflect the historical and genetic past of a peoples. The United States is a horrible example because early on many people actually keep to their own communities, with slightly modified versions of their "Old World" cultures. Then Americanization happened, similar to Francofication in which all the old cultures of France were wiped out and replaced with "French" ones.

If you tell people a mainstream ideology (liberalism) is dominating sociology, they decry you as a paranoid conspiracy theorist. If they say that a fringe "literally what?" ideology is dominating a field, we're just supposed to believe them. Unbelievable.

Yes, and the new meme blanket label for that is "alt-right". You see folks like Steve Sailer, or even neoreactionaries, lumped in with the "xDDD based Milo" crowd as alt-right.

Don't try to make heads or tails of it they are simply anti white.

>>3119468
The trick is that said mainstream ideology deliberately resists labeling attempts and redefines terms to make your idea hard to describe. Think of how hard it is to explain to many people that neocons are liberals in the broad sense.
