"alt-right? It's a meaningless term."

--

Not to the alt.right.

It was first used by Richard Spencer to describe his like-minded far-right extremists and white supremacists.

The term originated with his white nationalist magazine/blog Alternative Right, nicknamed "AltRight".

"In some ways the alt-right is arbitrary. I mean, the whole point is that this is a movement of consciousness and identity for European people in the 21st century. That's what it is." - Richard Spencer
