Since we've decided it's alright to physically assault Nazis, we probably should be strict with the definition. Not unreasonable. I don't know why they would bring that up as the first example since there are a lot better cases to be made for the existence of a political correctness of the right.

The alt rights are snowflakes of the highest order who would run screaming to Mommy the minute someone insulted them or looked at them cross eyed. The SJW Left also has this problem but the right has been virulently infected by this diseased lunacy. The SJW left still is a tiny minority.

The alt right would wet their pants at the thought of actually fighting for their ideals openly, which is why they harass people online and anonymously. They're cowards and people who would turn on this country at the drop of a hat.

Radical Islam? 95% of them would be bowing towards Tehran if an actual ISIS fighter was within 50 miles of them. They are plain and simple “cucks.˝

The alt-right is very small.  There also aren't any alt-right professors brainwashing students.

Apparently so small they have political influence in the White House these days and 30% of Republicans who somehow conclude they're under cultural attack.

The alt-right would love to think that they are influencing the White House, but they aren't.  Steve Bannon is not part of the alt-right, he just turned Breitbart into a site that panders to the alt-right so that alt-rightists would read it.

The real alt-right are people like Richard Spencer, who have no influence over the white house.

Please don't distort what the alt-right are. This smacks of "the alt-right doesn't exist." They do and they are a grave national threat.

They are white nationalists who want immigration restriction, for the sake of cultural purity, and they are deeply Euro-centric nationalists who disfavor globalization. That pretty well fits Bannon and indirectly by extension, Trump. End of story. There is no comma, appended addition, footnote to that.

This is the modern left. Anyone who doesn't support the unquestionable right of every Somali to move to America and get a free apartment and a living stipend is a Nazi and they should be murdered.

For the record, I do not ascribe unholy motives to the anti-neoliberal left. That's mostly because they aren't, y'know, bigoted racists in the first place.

I know that the alt-right exists, I've argued with them since 2015, but I think you are using a definition that is too broad.  Yes, they are white nationalists who want to end all non-white immigration.

However, these people are not the "I'm not racist, I have a friend who is black!" types.  These people are openly racist and proudly exclaim that they think whites are smarter and more moral than blacks and Hispanics (sometimes Asians are okay).  They want to bring back segregation, ban "race-mixing," and some want to limit citizenship to whites.  Even though some think that Asians are an admirable race, they still believe that whites who marry them are "race-traitors."

Beyond this, there is huge disagreement.  Take religion, for example.  Some argue that Christianity is the traditional religion of white people.  Others argue that Christianity is a Jewish conspiracy to undermine the white race, and reject religion altogether.  Others argue that whites should return to worshiping Zeus or Thor.

With economics, I've seen some describe themselves as libertarians.  Others, however, argue that Capitalism and Socialism are both "Jewish conspiracies."  Some say that "Capitalism is cuckoldry."

While anti-globalism is common, there are also people who argue for a United Europe as a white Ethnostate (there is actually a political party that argues this IIRC).

I've wasted many hours arguing with these people because many of them are just easily impressionable teens who I thought could be convinced by logic and reason.

It's just as useless to argue with people TD as it is to argue with people on the actual alt right. According to TD and the predominant left logic of the day, to say that only a self professed Nazi is a Nazi is an example of Nazi thinking. A "Nazi" isn't just someone who who supports the establishment of a dictatorship where citizenship is dictated along racial lines. A Nazi is anyone to the right of Judith Butler.
