Applying assumptions of intent to people making points you don't agree with as a way to discredit them sounds a tiny bit like ad hominem to me.

Your post is racist btw

And I don't think you're alt right. I think you're one of those people with alt right leanings who doesn't get what they're sympathizing with (fascists and pseudo-fascists).

Then stop banging on about pepe memes.

For those who are unaware Charles is taking about these posts when they are clearly posted as jokes:

Agree on the two uses of the Pepe character. Not really different from Charles' constant Nazi love.

Didn't you have an avvy of Pepe smiling about caged refugees?

I think you think you're being more tongue-in-cheek than you really are. I doubt you'd be as likely to use those memes for whatever reason if you weren't sympathetic with people who use them for realsies.

Except I don't sympathize with any aspects of Nazi ideology beyond a self-aware wish for national pride to not be so poisonous. The joke for me is the complete contradiction with posting that **** compared with my own political and social leanings.

And like Frown said, those are not the only instances of Fluff posting Pepe memes. Just the ones he either remembers or is willing to remember/cop to.
