A few housekeeping details:
Yes, this blog does have a comments section. Don't be afraid to use it. I have, in the past, had to disable comments to stave off an invasion of leftbook trolls, but that's well in the past now. Feel free to contribute to the conversation. I can't promise that I'll always answer - I am a busy guy, after all, but it can't hurt to try if you feel you have something to add. I'm all for debate and disagreement in good faith. Our philosophies do not advance and improve otherwise. But I have precious little patience for trolling and foot-stomping. I'm not obligated to slant the content of this blog to appease anybody. So don't act as if I do.
Contributions
Think you have what it takes to contribute to alt-left ideology and outlook? I'm open to contributions. In fact, The Alternative Left is in need of contributors that can keep the blog alive during those times that do come up where I'm unable to contribute for a while. As I'm sure you've noticed, that does happen. Plus more voices can't help but lead to wider outreach.
If you are a regular reader of this blog or of other alt-left or similar ideological spaces, you should have a rough idea of what the overall outlook is. In case you don't know, and if you do know it still can't hurt to recap, here's a rough outline of what tends to pass as alt-left:
- Center left to left wing economics.
- Civil libertarianism.
- Skeptical of identity politics.
- Rejection of alt-right and SJW extremes.
Just to name a few. Have something you'd like to contribute. Let me know in the comments or email me at ryanengland82@gmail.com
