The alt-right, or alternative right, is a loosely-connected and somewhat ill-defined[1] grouping of white supremacists/white nationalists, neo-Nazis, neo-fascists, neo-Confederates, Holocaust deniers, and other far-right[2][3][4] fringe hate groups.[5][6]
Alt-right beliefs have been described as isolationist, protectionist, antisemitic and white supremacist,[7][8][9] frequently overlapping with neo-Nazism,[10][11][12][13] identitarianism,[14] nativism and Islamophobia,[15][16][17][18][19] antifeminism, misogyny and homophobia,[10][20][21][22][13] right-wing populism[23][24] and the neoreactionary movement.[7][25] The concept has further been associated with several groups such as American nationalists, paleoconservatives, anarcho-capitalists, national-anarchists,[26] paleolibertarians, Christian fundamentalists, neo-monarchists, men's rights advocates and the 2016 presidential campaign of Donald Trump.[15][24][25][27][28][14]"

Both "parties" have an identity fetish. The both use it as a method of marginalization, a strictly divisive tactic that is completely successful. BOTH sides think that by employing these "labels" they immediately render whoever they are applying it to as no longer worth bothering with or listening to.
The groups listed above while virulent and repulsive do not represent the true "Alt Right". I would maintain the the true Alt Right is real Conservatism (which Lefty's despise anyway), all phases of Libertarianism, and various other shades of the Right sides of the political spectrum. We just aren't going to play by the rules imposed by the establishment. I did not vote for Rump, my position (again) is that the entire thing is a rigged system. The Left and Right Wing belong to the same bird.
