No idea how this passed. But I'm so tempted to make a character to take this to court and shoot it down...

Denisevich is being firm with Serrano mostly because he was too lenient with Fitch.

Why

Think about it; everyone sees him as the face of the alt-right. when you think alt-right white nationalism; you think about good ole Dickie boy. But then, you realise how bad of a spokesperson Richard Spencer is. And how much he just sucks as a person, and how unpopular he is with some factions of the "real alt-right". It's some sort of paradox.

The only rational explanation is that he's a government agent working to make the alt-right look bad (well, worse, since they never looked good to begin with)

Do it. That would be very interesting.

Don't you already control one of the state level attorneys general?

And where the Hell did Richard Spencer even come from? He's just always existed as something omnipresent to represent the alt-right, out of complete nowhere

That does make sense.

If nothing else he is not a legitimate leader.

I don't see why he even tries to be given that the alt right's online HQ is an anonymous Japanese anime forum.

Yes.

Also, he seems to lack any support from the old dogs who have hitched themselves to the alt right like Peter Brimelow and Jared Taylor.

See!

Yes, but the media portrays him as such, and that's what people see; controlled opposition!

I'm telling you man, Richard Spencer is a government agent. When it gets revealed, it's gonna be big. I was just joking, but it makes too much sense

I wonder what impact this would have, if any, if it becomes public that you are correct.

Probably won't get anywhere. Several states have the same kind of thing on the books and they've stuck around. Still something that could be tried though

I'd assume a lot of finger pointing about who else could be a government operative. A paranoia festival

If the government would bother to set up controlled opposition within the alt right that means the alt right is a bigger deal than I thought.

I mean, I'd assume it would be more keeping tabs on them than actually trying to sabotage the alt right.

Though, to be honest, a controlled opposition Spencer would really fuel the alt-right's conspiracy theories

I don't think he's controlled opposition, I think he's an opportunist who decided to try and take advantage of a political niche market.
