The Alt-right Playbook is a series produced by Ian Danskin which discusses rhetorical techniques employed by the alt-right. It’s primary focus is on building a common language to describe patterns he, and others, observe in the alt-right.
While Danskin hasn’t formally proposed solutions or a counter-playbook, I have extracted some ideas from the Alt-right Playbook:
- Speak directly to your audience; don’t validate terrible ideas by platforming them to your audience or by debating/etc
- Imagine others complexly
- Pursue egalitarian policies and structures of governance
- Prefer the Duck test to believing people at their word
