"How dare you call Hitler a Nazi! Slander!"
The rebranding of a bunch of loosely-collected quasi-fascists who share a bitter hatred of the Left and a generally misanthropic, nihilistic outlook (that is, towards anyone that isn't them). Their ideology is usually vague, though they all have a dislike of intelligence, tolerance and femininity - and
democracy, of course.
The Alt Right's ranks are full of under-educated
white men who transform their inner insecurities into
rage, and that
rage into misguided spite. The two main subsections are the autistic 4chan keyboard warriors (you'll hear them use the word soy
boy even though they probably only leave their bedrooms once a week), and the tiki torch marchers, who have been known to use their feet to walk. They also murder
people from time to time.
It's an unholy combination of the bullied
kids at school who are only a few steps away from shooting it up, and the old-school neo-Nazi youths (also bullied at school), some of whom are now actually fully-grown adults.
