So is “Hotep” now code for Black “Alt right” type cats?

So initially the term was used for Sa Neter TV type cats.

Then people used it for cats like Tariq or even Umar Johnson (ironically Tariq is the one who coined the “dusty hotep”).

And now it looks like black people who suscribe to American right wing ideals are calling themselves hotep.

Can someone expound?

Not here to debate, just want clarification.

I wouldnt say exactly but they share some of the same values. One is about supremacy, the other is about self sufficiency.

Alt right may not be the right term, but many of the people currently using the title align themselves with the American Right/Republican party.

The original people being called hotep, reject the American/Western Political system as a whole.

This root article definded hoteps as :
"members of the Afrocentric community who push an ahistorical teaching of black history that often belittles and blames black women and the LGBTQ community for the shortcomings of black men—" https://www.theroot.com/are-we-misappropriating-the-term-hotep-1790856636

Imo Just a low key way to frame black nationalist as sexist and homophobic.

For the people who are trying to own the title now, I dont think they would say they recognize themselves as Black Nationalist.

@Uncle Hotep would you call yourself a black nationalist?

Hoteps are supposed to be Black separatist/Nationalists (think Umar Johnson), these new Hotep are just typical Black Republicans like Sheriff David Clarke who cape for Trump.

Which is interesting because most of those types are anti Africa and mock it like white supremacist do using the whole "we wuz kangz" diss
