Alt-Right
Beliefs/Foundations
The current incarnation of the alt-right movement was created by Richard Spencer, a American
white supremacist, in 2010, when he created the "AlternativeRight.com" website. Spencer has displayed his
Neo-Nazi and
racial supremacist views.
Racial Nationalism
The alt-right is a white nationalist movement. Many members of the movement, especially in
Europe, also believe in
Identitarianism, a
pan-European far-right political movement that advocates for
anti-multiculturalism and
cultural supremacy. Many people in the alt-right are
neo-Confederates who commonly use
Confederate imagery and symbolism. Many people inside of the alt-right movement have shown
Anti-Black views,
Anti-Hispanic views,
anti-Arab views, and anti-Hindu views.
Manosphere
Many people in the alt-right are also part of the Manosphere movement, as they believe that
masculinity and traditional culture are under threat by things such as
homosexuality and
Feminism.
Anti-Semitism
Most members of the alt-right movement are anti-Semitic. Members of the alt-right commonly spread
conspiracy theories and anti-semitic tropes about Jewish people, such as the
"Jewish Bolshevism" conspiracy theory, that alleges that Jewish people were behind the
Russian Revolution.
Paleoconservativism
Most members of the alt-right movement are opposed to most
mainstream conservative
ideologies, seeing them as incompatible with things such as
white supremacy due to their support for
Israel and foreign interventions. Many famous members of the alt-right movement hold
paleoconservative views, the most famous of them being
Nick Fuentes.
