Could someone explain to me just where the line is drawn between the alt-right and the everyday lunatic right?

Alt-right trend younger and generally don’t try to hide their racism (at least online). Overlap heavily with 4chan culture, embrace anime avatars and believe that messaging via memes is effective. The alt-right generally doesn’t even give lip service to traditional conservative small government ideals, flat tax, social security reform or economic freedom. Their entire raison d’etre is racial and cultural revanchism. They’re primarily whites expressing anger over the loss of a perceived ethnic birthright.
