"The neoreactionary movement (a.k.a. neoreaction, NRx, the Dark Enlightenment, the alt-right movement) is a loosely-defined cluster of Internet-based political thinkers who wish to return human society to forms of government older than liberal democracy"
Thank you!

A faction of intellectual or pseudointellectual bloggers (depending on your opinion) - it is probably easier to say what they are against progressive politics and modernity, than what they are for - but at times they have openly or covertly advocated wanting to do some/all of bring back monarchy, return to traditional gender roles, abolish the distinction between church and state, isolationist foreign policies, racial segregation or "scientific racism" and so on.
So, its pretty easy to see why they are quite controversial.

They're only controversial because some of them have money. When normal people spout these kinds of opinions, nobody hesitates to simply label them wrong and be done with it.
