How The Alt-Right And Trump News Conspiracies Work?

During his presidency, Donald Trump frequently retweeted followers linked to the conspiracy theory QAnon, which claimed that a powerful cabal of Democrats was involved in a conspiracy. This led to the rise of the Alt-Right, an online group inspired by Trump’s xenophobic and racist rhetoric. The Alt-Right quickly became Trump’s voluntary online army, attacking Trump’s critics on Twitter and other online venues.

Trump has spent over a decade on social media attacking enemies, cozying up to far-right ideas, and sharing false information. He used Twitter to perpetuate the lie that President Barack Obama was a CIA agent. Both Trump and Steve Bannon understand the deep psychology of conspiracy and how any claim will be entertained and held with intense conviction if it is true.

The Trump presidency and the new “Alt-Right” are part and product of America’s own past and persisting. David Neiwert’s book, Alt-America: The Rise of the Radical Right in the Age of Trump, charts the key political and social moments that have shaped these movements.

In January 2017, Donald J. Trump was sworn in as President of the United States, promising improvement to the news ecosystem. However, manufactured stories, such as “Pizzagate”, have poisoned the news ecosystem and may have contributed to the attempted assassination of Trump.

The alt-right (abbreviated from alternative right) is a far-right, white nationalist movement that originated in the late 20th century. A post erroneously alleging voter fraud went viral and reached President Trump’s Twitter feed, ensnaring the electorate using false stories on social media. Tech companies seem unwilling to admit there’s a problem, and the alt-right has continued to ensnare the electorate using false stories on social media.
