The Alt-Right has a new logo! I fixed it for them

Fixed that for you
Fixed that for you

So the alt-right now has a semi-official logo, introduced to the world by Richard Spencer, the guy who came up with the term in the first place, at a weird press-conference/debutante ball for the Nazi-based movement in Washington DC on Friday.

Here it is:

altrightlogo

Spencer, who designed the logo himself, “said it had a young, futuristic look, in contrast to the flags and eagles that adorn the logos of the past,” according to Mother Jones.

But one aspect of the logo unintentionally recalls a rather memorable bit of white supremacist branding from years past — the infamous KKK hood. So I’ve taken the liberty of photoshopping-up what I think is a far more honest logo, which you can see at the top of the post.

It’s hard to overstate just how weird the press conference seems to have been. Its location was secret, so reporters had to go to another location first to learn where it really was — a technique popularized by raves in the late 80s and 90s.

“Reporters covering the event were instructed to go to the entrance of the Old Ebbitt Grill, near the White House,” Mother Jones notes.

There, they would encounter a man in a charcoal suit and brown tie who would reveal the new location of the conference. 

During the press conference itself, Spencer proudly declared that the alt-right was free of “cucks,” and waxed poetic about what the world might be like if people like him ran it.

“If the alt-right were in power, we would all have arrived here via magnetic levitation trains,” he told the crowd, according to Mother Jones.

We would have passed by great forests and beautiful images of blond women in a wheat field with their hands, running them through the wheat.

Keep dreaming, dude.

But feel free to use my improved logo!

Here is another math song. It is a math love song.

Ooh, math love songs! And yes, your poem was indeed elegant (and this coming from an award-winning, “paid the light bill” poet.)

Here’s the link to the lyrics equation. In the comments, the answer is categorically stated to be 0.015498436.

Aw, thank you for the flattery! And I see what I did wrong – It was in degrees and not radians!

Ahem. Well. Thank you! That’s done then.

Oh yeah the answer is 0.0154984348. Because if the operation was in radians then it would be a nonreal number, at least that’s what my calculator said. Solving it was actually quite easy. The given is basic algebra, and the rest aside some isolating the variable for neatness’ sake, pretty much solves itself.

@Scildfreja Unnýðnes –

Seconding (or however-many-ing) appreciation for your poem. I think you’ll probably like this one:

(It’s not mine, or something. Just good.)

Mussolini’s rule included the implementation of the Vajont Dam, one of the most well known and massive engineering failures. A lack of monitoring and safety precautions lead to a rockslide into the reservoir and then a megatsunami (~300 my above the dam) overtopping the dam and obliterating something like 10 villages downstream.

Fascists don’t tend to make good infrastructure.

The estates of the Nazi elite should totally sue; goddamn Alt-Right cribbing all their propaganda work without even a *citation*. 🙂

Three integers a, b and c
Each raised to an integer z
For z larger than two
This just isn’t true
The proof? No more room, QED

Wait, I think I got one *ahem*

One integer
to another
The former then taken away
Your answer will be
A multiple, see
Of the exponent prime always

Except, in case
Upon its face
The moduli won’t operate
A is less than naught,
More than P, no doubt,
And now I must ask, concentrate

A diff’rent signs
In length P lines
Produce many combinations
Take out A plain strings
What’s left of those things
Divides by P permutations

@Axe:
Working on that sonnet. Sigh. Sonnet form is hard, even if one takes the loose Shakespearean form of it.

Here you go. I am not proud of this doggerel rhyming, and it doesn’t scan either, but at least it is unmistakably a sonnet.

Take a complex number and call it S.
Now take each integer in turn,
Raise the integer to minus S, yes?
One of maths’s great secrets you’ll learn.

The results of these raises should all add up,
So make a total – Keep track!
The real part of the total moves down and up,
Plus to minus and back.

Each time it does, look at the complex part
At the moment the real takes a dive.
You’ll find that it’s value is exactly, by heart,
Zero point five.

No-one knows why.
Why don’t you try?

eeeeeeeeeeeee math poetry thread!

All of those are great! And your link *is* poetry, there’s no doubt about it, John.

Ehh I’m pretty sure the way CYNE members even make coffee could be considered poetry. It’s just more approachable for me :3

Poetry (and rap, but then I consider them the same thing except rap is even harder) involves a lot of math in the first place, but clearly not as much as what’s going on in this thread ._.
As a side note, I never did understand math rock.

And free flow is my excuse for writing rap without thinking too much about math. Plus my essjaydubalyuh stuff pisses off the uber-rational folks, so it’s a win anyway.

I can’t even wrap my mind around the kind of skill it takes to write what I’ve read in this thread. This is just mind-blowing.

This is pretty much the only kind of poetry that my brain understands

An ejtooian sonnet. Meter? Rhythm? Fuck it, check out this math(s) 😀

While I can appreciate the craft and skill that go into poetry, it’s rare that I actually appreciate the poetry itself unless someone’s set it to a tune.

Hey, I worked hard to force those rhymes. Things don’t turn out that ugly by accident, you know! 🙂

I have tremendous respect for rappers of all sorts, John, probably due to the fact that I stutter. Anyone who has that level of lyricism has my admiration.

This is beauty. Thank you.

@EJ

You want lyricism ? You understand french ? Here’s my idol. For context, she’s Lebanese-Swiss, for context about part of the lyrics. For wanderlusters out there, here’s another one. I was raised in a car playing blues and rock, so this one’s basically eargasm to me.

By the way, my best friend (also the dj I fool around with, incidentally) would probably implode over the idea of math rap. I gotta run it by him some time.

You’re poem is symbolic of the hypothesis itself. Cryptic and seemingly unfinished. I like it! Don’t hide your brilliance!

Now I’m thinkin of tryin my hand at math Seuss. The computational version of the Tweetle Beetle Battle. Don’t hold it against me if I can’t

@John
Maybe all French rap sounds the same to me, but your idol reminded me of this. Similar flow, both heavy on the down beat (sounds like chakaKHAN, chakaKHAN, chakaKHAN), piano whole notes (moving chromatically, I think? It’s been years since band class). It’s prolly just me tho…

If you were wondering, that other language is Swiss German. I can read Standard High German. Allemanic is a completely different language entirely

I’m a bit the same. Though I was shocked to the core one day when I watched, purely by accident, a poetry reading on television by an elderly British actress (can’t remember who now). She was utterly brilliant. My memory has also lost its grip on the poetry in question, but her reading made everything flow in a way I’d never have expected.

It was sublime.

Jonathan Coulton has a folk-rock song, “Mandelbrot Set”, his fan letter to the late great Benoit Mandelbrot. I don’t understand the math, but the song is darn catchy.

I have dark brown hair and green eyes. Does this mean I don’t get a wheat field to frolick in? ?

@Em
I have reddish brown hair and gray eyes, so no wheat field for me either.
Which is fine-I’d rather have my own library anyway. Care to join me?

Red (copper) hair and blue eyes (that sometimes look greyish or greenish) here…I wouldn’t be opposed to having my own library. Mine would probably be the only library with a swimming pool. The books would have waterproof coating on the pages.
