I think we can all agree that "not us = bad" is an unhealthy mindset to have. There's definitely a fair bit of it on all sides of politics these days. However, there is a difference between the far left and far right on this issue. The alt-right politics are inherently othering, with racism and homophobia/transphobia, etc. identifying groups and writing them off. The far left on the other hand lacks those inherent factors. While there's a lot of that there, it's entirely possible to be very far left without labeling any group as inferior.

So even ignoring the violent messaging the alt-right engages in, the difference between the far right and far left is how inherent othering is to the political beliefs.
