Alt-Right Denormalizer

New Google Chrome extension replaces the term “alt-right” with “rebranded white nationalism”

Are you tired of hearing racists, anti-Semites, xenophobes, and misogynists legitimize their vile hatreds by claiming they merely represent a new ideological movement, the so-called alt-right?

If so, Google Chrome’s “Alt-Right Denormalizer” may be exactly what you need to call out the bigots and all who abet them for what they are, from President-elect Donald Trump to common message board trolls.

If you purchase the Alt-Right Denormalizer from Google Chrome’s web store, it will automatically replace the term “alt-right” with “rebranded white nationalism” wherever it comes up online. The nifty feature is reminiscent of Google Chrome’s “Drumpfinator,” which was launched after talk show host John Oliver encouraged viewers to refer to Donald Trump by his original German surname, Drumpf, as a way of de-mystifying his presidential candidacy.

I uninstalled Google Chrome from my computer; it was causing my system to act funny.

I'm with you on google and chrome. They are a creepy outfit on the privacy front.
I use FF with ad block plus, ghostery, https everywhere and better privacy.
