More alt-right than when? I don't think it's significantly moreso than say, a year ago, but the alt-right presence has definitely increased since 2014. Open nationalism is far more common here than - just to put a neat date on it - when the Trump campaign kicked off.

Having said that, CE remains a largely liberal board, and just as we've seen more open members of the far right, we also have more open leftists than I can ever recall. I remember ~2008 when Scintillante was considered to be way the hell out there for espousing views that are fairly commonplace today.

I've done polls just asking people how they identify, but there are always joke votes, and equally weighting each user isn't a fair representation of a board where some of us (such as myself) are far more prolific posters than others.

If I had to put percentages on our political discussion
20% alt-right
10% conservative
30% liberal
20% leftist
20% people who spout off about how they hate "both sides" without ever espousing views of their own

But so much gets bent by the U.S. political lens, so it can appear at times 75-25 to the left because that's how many disapprove of Trump.

We're ideologically diverse in a way that the NYT op-ed page can only dream of.
