    Context is the left’s biggest weakness and the lack of it is the alt-rights greatest strength.

    It’s easy to be short, quippy, and loud and much harder to be informed and detailed.

      You’re right, but consider that virtually all forms of media have been working overtime to reduce average attention spans to the narrowest possible window over the past 20-30 years. This can make it much more difficult for the informed messages to register before that next notification fires off.
