Nailed at The Daily Dot [dailydot.com], which as far as I can tell is a neutral arbiter of such things.

Since the election of President Donald Trump in 2016, the “alt-right” [dailydot.com] has received much international attention. We have seen white men pouring white milk on themselves [mic.com] in the name of racial purity, [ewwww! ] and we have read about deeply violent acts like the man who stabbed and killed two people on a Portland train who were defending the target of the killer’s racial slurs. Then there was , Unite the Right [dailydot.com] rally in Charlottesville, a horrifying spectacle of white supremacists carrying weapons and swastikas marching through the city over a fallen Confederate monument. In many ways, Trump’s consistent dog-whistles and policies against marginalized people would make you believe that the “alt-right” is only getting started.

Or, you could argue, the sound of that momentum is the alt-right’s death knell.

    Knell of death, that is. I would provide more, but the sheer amount of linkage I would have to duplicate, only to be denied by alt-right sympathizers on the editorial board (JR excepted), makes it more trouble than it is worth. But, you could always go to the original Fine Article, and realize that the alt-right is not a thing, not alt, not right. Just pathetic.

There is more. For one thing, they cite the Spencer saying antifa is winning, which I may point out, is just like WWII, and not at all surprising in a country like America.
