Abstract	The Alt-Right are an online racist group where multiple characters from the "intellectual dark web" or White identitarian right come together; trolls, incels, men's rights activists, and ironic gamers intersect with right populist movements, Neo-romantic reactionaries, and Christian nationalists. Not limited to a hidden far-right separatist group, their articles, videos, memes, and posts circulate to a broader audience, moving from sites like 4chan and Reddit, though to Facebook and YouTube. In this paper, the author explores the public pedagogy of the Alt-Right, specifically the language they use to critique public education and shape their own alternatives. Online, they use transgressive, liberatory, postmodern language, to promote anti-modern, racist, conspiratorial ideas. In education, this transgressive discourse takes the language of diversity, criticality, anti-hegemony to promote a reactionary populist commonsense. The right frames the left as dull PC schoolmasters. The right frames themselves as critical warriors--they speak post-truth to power. Through digital ethnography of conservative media, the author develops the concept of postmodern reactionary populism to analyze how right populist educational discourse and organizing co-opts the critical voices of the left.
