I think you should repeat alt-right talking points less, 2 times is 2 times too many
I don't care if those braindead weirdos happen to agree with one or two of my opinions, a broken clock is right twice a day anyway. Moderating your language based on the idea that its connotations will associate you with one of the two monolithic political sports teams that divvy up the entire political spectrum between them is a very Americentric view, and it's also very servile.
I'm not asking you moderate your language. I am asking you to reflect on "why do me and braindead weirdoes are agreeing". It's not about how you will be perceived, it's about the neverending struggle of always asking yourself "am I out of touch or is it children who are wrong" or variations of those. Lack of this self-reflection might lead you to a dark path of thinking that every time you get criticized for your take, it's because political censorship or whatever.
Judging from their reaction to the mildest form of critique I think they're too far down that path to hear you.
