You made a little feint there in your second sentence of the second paragraph -- who said anything about fascism? I suspect it might be you that doesn't know what alt-right means in your confusion between the two. That would also explain your waving away the reality that classical liberalism underpins much of the alt-right movement. You might notice many folks espousing the views of one Ayn Rand, for example. Beyond that, and returning to the actual subject at hand, there is very little "deconstruction" -- to the extent that is a thing, in the show. Perhaps in the early days. It has long since devolved in to a Trump apologist show, regurgitating Fox News and Breitbart talking points. You need only look to see where else Curry has appeared.

> who said anything about fascism The alt-right is basically fascism, no? I don't mean in the normal online accusatory fashion, I mean in the "literally fans of Mussolini" fashion. Or maybe we mean two different groups of people? I'm thinking of the folks involved with Charlottesville, etc. as opposed to the "alt lite" which is Ben Shapiro / Sargon / Cernovich and their ilk, who are distinct in the sense that they ostensibly disavow racism etc. and are more classical liberalists. > , there is very little "deconstruction" -- to the extent that is a thing, in the show That's a matter of opinion, I guess? I agree it has devolved since 2016, but there's still the occasional gem in there.
