Commonly done in online arguments. Alting is using an alternate account to defend yourself in an argument. A trick used by people because they don’t want to lose an argument that has no significance over their life whatsoever.

Using an alternate account (alt account) in order to hide your identity so you can act like yourself but no one will know it’s you. Typically used if you are popular and don’t want people to know who you are.

GordoAlt comes from the corrê-primitive landscape of the Nepêt-å "dev" mythology. "Gordo" is often used to describe an extremely god-like individual - who is often mentally-challenged and hated until he's gone. The original gordo from the Nepêt-å "dev" mythology was just that. "Alt" comes from the ancient tale of when Rév-uläte was corrupt and awfully persecuted Gordo for being better than him. "GordoAlt" was a phrase later said by the mighty god now known as "castyte"

Person 1: really? *looks for alt text for 2000000000000 other images

Short for "alternative facts" - a newspeak term for things that are completely wrong, but one decides to give a fuck about truth. Coined by Kellyann Conway, spin doctor of US President Donald J. Trump.
"It's a lie. But we will not say lie, because thats a bad word. We don't use bad words. We never do them. We use right words. Right words, alt-right-words, alt-facts. Who needs facts anyway. I won." Donald J. Trump

The most toxic side of the community. People here are sensitive and will try to stir up any type of argument with you even when you are agreeing with them, almost like they have no life outside of TikTok. They have little to no sense of humor and can't seem to understand or take a simple joke. This is like Twitter but on TikTok.
Most are often Societal Narcissists; believing that they are so much more superior and unique just because they are on alt side TikTok and will shit and look down on anyone using anything outside Alt TikTok such as Instagram Reels, straight TikTok, etc. And because they believe their aesthetic is so much better than anyone else's. They are not as united as they will even attack their own people for whatever random reasons, usually boredom.

They usually post stuff with their face staring into the camera with hyper-pop music and text over; usually saying stuff like
"Please tell me that I am not the only one who's FYP is blah blah"
"Why do men? Kill all men!"
"Fighting the urge to blah blah when you blah"
"POV: You can dress well"
Person A: Omg, is he using Instagram reels and not on Alt TikTok?
Person B: wow, imagine using reels.
