Most of the people who do so do not identify as alt right.
A growing number of the people who do so come from the left.
Have you considered the possibility that you are doing real harm when you struggle so hard to alienate anyone who doesn't want to stand under your tiny little dogmatic umbrella? You take words that people in the liberal left find abhorrent, and then unless they support the same divisive (and ineffective) politics you espouse, you will attempt to demonize them using those words.
If you were trying to find a way to drive much of the left toward the center or beyond, consistently arguing like a dick is a great way to do it. Look at how the politics in pretty much the whole world is swinging right. Why do you think that is? Are people just turning into assholes for no reason? Or could it be that the ridiculous extremes of the PC Left-- the fucking nonsense with the zes and the zers, for example, and the constant name-calling and accusations of oppression while being unwilling to consider constructive action-- could it be that people don't WANT to stand around sniffing your farts?
Consider this, and understand it. It's not the siren's call of some dormant racism that is pulling people toward the right. It's that people like you make having any kind of rational disussion, or finding any kind of common ground to build on, completely impossible, and that it is your express intent to do so.
Good luck with that.
