        Don was talking about alt.right (obviously a play on alt-right: but probably also the alt-right news group, if there is one). However, the standard acronym expansion for the alt hierarchy on the usenet (it actually stands for alternative) is Anarchists, Lunatics, and Terrorists: partly a running gag and partly because alt.* was (and still is) the wild west of the usenet: a lawless wasteland, with the occasional specks of civilization.

            For some people, any restriction is too much. It's the 4chan vs 8chan thing.
