If you think any kind of organized "alt left" exists that's comparable to the "alt right" in organization, strength, influence, or a likely emergence of any of the aforementioned, then you're delusional. A few kooks does not an "alt left" make.
The alt-right is not a real thing either.
... yes, it is. We can debate to what extent they influence public policy and government officials, but there is no argument whether or not it exists because it does.
The alt-right exists, but it is on the extreme fringes of society. These people argue for legal abortion because they think it is necessary to kill minority babies. I once even saw two alt-righters arguing about whether it was a bigger concern for "Shaniqua" or "Pedro and Mohammed" to reproduce. I accused some of being racists, and they responded "is that a bad thing" and "yeah, I'm racist- so what?". The alt-right does not describe any actual politicians or mainstream commentators.
No I mean the alt right actually doesn't exist. It's a created catch all term to grab many different fringe "conservative" groups with many different belief systems and structures. The majority of people deemed "alt right" are probably not white supremacist or white nationalist. What they've done is lumped a whole bunch of fringe groups from white nationalist and supremacists, internet trolls, pseudo fascists, anarchocapitalists, men's rights activists, and kids into one big group. The term Alt-right as it is currently utilized isn't anything.
Now referring to the older term specifically about white nationalists, there is already an alt left of communist/socialist white nationalists as well.
Just because something isn't organised doesn't mean it doesn't exist. As a catch all term for a certain type of person who focuses on of identity politics which is highly antagonistic towards what you might call "previously disadvantaged" groups, then it is a useful catch all term.
