These people should NOT be called some alternative name like "alt right" because it gives them something to hide behind. They should be identified by what they really are which is white supremacists.


After all, it was white supremacists who came up with the term "alt right" anyway. Everyone else just simply adopted it as an identifier for some strange reason. Think about it.

I think the struggle is that there are so many different groups under the umbrella, that it becomes hard to find an all encompassing term. I think I am going to take a cue from Pat Jarrett, though, and go with "American fascists."
