I believe I went over this speech the Alt-Right like to refer to when quoting Chomsky. It doesn't paint a nice sunny picture of them:

When confrontation shifts to the arena of violence, it's the toughest and most brutal who win – and we know who that is. That's quite apart from the opportunity costs – the loss of the opportunity for education, organising, and serious and constructive activism.

Note the emphasis I put in there? You know what Noam Chomsky is saying right?

He's saying that the Left shouldn't bother with violence because they could better things (which a good amount of them are, getting out the vote, etc). But more importantly that the right wing is far more voracious at violence then the left.

They're the better psychos, the better killers, the ones who murder people better, the better sociopaths. Etc, etc.

He feels they are so far advanced in that territory from the left that it's not even worth the effort for the left to learn how to be blood thirsty psychopaths. It'd be like pairing up a vegan with Hannibal Lector in a fava bean and liver eating contest. Sure the vegan may get through quite a bit of fava beans, but when it comes to that liver, only Hannibal is going to dare go all the way.

And that group of violent psychopaths he is talking about? The Alt-Right, the thing that Alt-Furry is named after.

That's why if you join a group like that, you best be careful not to get eaten alive.
