The Stop Normalizing Alt Right browser extension is a way to avoid getting frustrated by websites or people who use the term "alt-right," but it won't actually affect whether people are using the phrase or not. It's a trade-off between keeping tabs on what other people are saying, or excising the term "alt-right" from your browser for your own personal health.

Other similar browser extensions have popped up recently too, like this one that replaces "alt-right" with "neo-Nazi."

"White supremacy has been rebranded to the friendlier 'Alt-Right,'" the creators of the Stop Normalizing extension wrote in their description. "We must not allow the term or its followers to be normalized. This Chrome extension makes it a little easier to reject their rebranding and have them referred to as what they are, white supremacists. Enjoy and keep up the good fight."
