I always thought it was just right wing conspiracy buffs; they believe alternative news.

But now it seems to be used as a perjorative to trash anyone that is right of center.

while the alt-right indulges in and circulates alternative news, and believes in conspiracy theories, the label does not explicitly refer to that

there are right wingers with such an inclination that wouldn't be considered alt-right - garden variety boomercons circulating and consuming qanon drivel on facebook and twitter, for instance

i should note, however, that there's an overlap, but their sources differ dramatically (aside from screencaps of posts from 8chan with respect to qanon conspiracy theorists)
