When leftists think "Right wing" in the US think of the Christian theocracy. However, conservatism is only one sect of the right. The right is also reactionary, and the alt-right is definitely reactionary. I'd argue the alt-right fits nicely into Wikipedia's definition of far-right politics [1].

Edited because my sarcastic use of tone didn't really have a place in the discussion.
The alt-right are younger neo-reactionaries who are tired of political correctness, tired of the media narrative.
Because the republicans have been using that as a very loud base for a long time now.
SJWs are not liberal. They don't want free speech. CA is not a liberal state by looking at its taxes and firearms laws. These are authoritarian ideas.
Rectification of names... Labels and Knowledge are totally independent things.
People who claim it's a negative are usually upset that they can't attack, belittle, or harass other people for their own amusement, I've found.
We have laws on harassment and threats. You don't get to suppress people's speech even if they are idiots.
That's a real liberal position.
Believing that people that respect that idea are bullies is both unfounded and unfair.
You say, as you attack and belittle people you disagree with...
(...not only people who behave that way, but everyone who thinks censorship is a negative.)
yeah, War is Peace
or, as they taught is in Scientific Communism classes, "Freedom is a conscientious necessity"
I would argue that it can't. Freedom is the freedom to do things. "Freedom from x" is just another way of saying "you're not allowed to do x".
One man's freedom may be another man's prison.
Before the 2016 election, the term was "classical liberal". I don't know about Milo, but at least Alex Jones has described himself as a liberal.

frontpage of breitbart today.
This article is racist af, and the comments are even worse.
This article basically has no source, and is a bunch of anecdotal race war bullshit. The only "facts" are so lacking in context that they are meaningless. Like number of total attacks for example....
To claim that it has "basically no source" is not true. The Breitbart piece links to the German-language article on which it is based. I'll link it here again for you:
The translator whose statements are featured in both the Brietbart piece and the original German article is allegedly a Christian Eritrean woman who has requested anonymity because she fears reprisals from the Islamic asylum claimants with whom her work requires that she interact.
Other people quoted in the German article are indeed identified by name.
Disclaimer: I am not vouching for the veracity of their statements, the integrity of the original German-language publication, or of Brietbart.
I've watched some debates with Milo as well as Gavin Mcinnes. They are definitely not what most Americans would call "far-right" -- in that they aren't anti-gay, aren't anti-drugs, aren't socially conservative, and aren't particularly hawkish. They seem to dislike Republicans like Paul Ryan almost as much as Nancy Pelosi.
Milo recently did a profanity-laden pro-Trump rally dressed in drag. That's the "alt" -- it's quite different than what a person would typically call Republican.
