Alt-right emerged out of Internet messenging boards like 4chan - hence calling it alt-right as a pun on the keyboard combination.
They spend a lot of time making racist jokes about black people, Jews, gays and feminists, call anyone who they think agrees with those groups a cuck, and generally call everyone 'faggot' or 'fag' (hence, 'newfag') pretty much as a default. A lot of their thinking is basically a mixture of 'The Game'-style PUA nonsense and gamer geekery (remember 'Gamergate'?)
I think some people thought it was tongue in cheek until they realised that it really wasn't and a lot of the idiots believed what they were saying.
