>Judging by this article and others, "alt-right" seems to be turning into another way of saying "politics I don't like and wish weren't taken seriously" - not that it ever referred to any particularly coherent movement in the first place, but those in the media can't seem to further dilute the label quickly enough, and even those who formerly adopted it seem to be starting to move away.

The term "alt-right" was coined by Richard Spencer and initially referred specifically to his paleoconservative brand of ethno-nationalism. Now it is a broader term, yes, but it's meaning is generally intact.

No Hindu is not an ethnicity, and RSS has more in common with say, Ayatollahs or Erdogan than with Hitler or Stalin. Every strain of populism even the religious kind is not fascism. Before declaring India a fascist state you have 50 some "Islamic Republics" that fit the bill of your definition of fascism.

edit: India is some how a fascist country for having a democratically elected right-wing party, but countries with Official state religions are not. I will drink your down votes, please keep them coming.
