'Let's party like it's 1933': Inside the alt-right world of Richard B. Spencer | WaPo - 22 Nov. 2016 |

Richard Bertrand Spencer had just told his guests how inspired he was by their presence when the rising sound of fury outside the dining room's double doors reached his ears. He knew what it meant.

Spencer stepped into the open hallway and, there, beneath the wooden second-floor railing at Maggiano's Little Italy in Northwest Washington, more than 30 protesters were marching up the stairway toward him. Several held posters -- "No to Racism and Fascism" -- and blew whistles. "No Nazis! No KKK! No fascist USA!" they shouted, their voices intensifying as he came into view.

Ten feet from the top of the stairs, a Maggiano's employee -- a black man in a light-blue button-down and red tie -- spread his arms wide, blocking the mob from reaching the 100 or so white nationalists who had gathered at the restaurant Friday for a private dinner. Spencer walked behind him and looked down at the activists. Then the man who had coined the term "alt-right" grinned and waved.

Despite a long background in far-right radicalism, youthful Taylor Rose's campaign enjoys deep and broad support within the state's GOP | SPLC - 10 Oct 2016 |

Taylor Rose also authored a book in 2012 titled Return of the Right: How the Political Right Is Taking Back Western Civilization, which argued that Western humanists are attempting to impose a "vision to destroy the nation-state, eliminate religion, break down all defined barriers in society (such as family) and eliminate western civilization from the face of the earth in the attempt to institute a radical, multicultural, New World Order agenda." In the book, Rose argued that this nefarious plot is failing because "the Western world is coming to realize the complete emptiness and harm of belief systems that are at their core, nihilistic."

The neo-Confederate hate group the League of the South interviewed Rose about the book when it came out. During the interview, Rose continued to warn of the evil nature of "the Left" and predicted that a white nationalist Right would soon rise to the fore in global politics. "You will first see the Right-Wing act as a great power of political influence, mainly upon the center-right, by reorienting the ideas of the center-right to reform immigration policy and take a more hard-line anti-Socialist stance."
