Alt-right association

[edit]

Could a section be added on it's connection with alt-right and/or far-right associations? Potentially also links to misogynistic and patriarchal ideas of family structure and organisation?

@Finton the magical salmon Are you aware of any reliable sources that make that connection? Best, user:A smart kittenmeow 19:03, 17 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Probably the best source i could easily find:
- https://gnet-research.org/2023/05/19/co-opting-cottagecore-pastoral-aesthetics-in-reactionary-and-extremist-movements/
News articles:
- https://honisoit.com/2020/09/cottagecore-colonialism-and-the-far-right/
- https://medium.com/@hullabaloo2/the-other-side-of-cottagecore-ad9420901c8
I've really only it seen it mentioned in passing as well as worrying trends i've observed online. However, looking at this stuff I found in 5 mins of looking around, it seems to be a relevant topic to be discussed in the article. I don't really have time at the moment, but I think someone could easily make an addition to the article. Sources appear to be abundant, so it should be an easy task.

Why should every article be written from a woke leftist point of view? This article already contains critiques about "misogyny" and "gender roles" and "white women", which are typical far-left talking points and imo don't belong next to valid criticism such as the unrealistic picture of rural life. To a far-leftist, everything seems to be far-right. Btw, people are allowed to adopt any lifestyle they like, and if it includes traditional gender roles, there's absolutely nothing wrong with that. Maybe some people should try to remember what the world "liberalism" means. We have gotten to a point where people on the left just assume that their worldview is universally accepted as correct and that everything outside of it is by default wrong. 87.116.163.198 (talk) 14:57, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The point of a Wikipedia article is to capture scholarly and journalistic consensus on a subject. This article does so. Using these sources does not approach bias, nor should we talk of the sources as 'wrong'. As you state, it is your opinion that these sources are invalid. Your opinion is not fact. I have already clarified via the Third Opinion page that the sources used are the best and most appropriate sources to use for the 'critiques' section, and it is not our role as editors to fall on either side of this fence.
