In what way do you see the alt right not being evil? This would include the likes of the KKK, neo nazis, white supremacists keep in mind.

As far as I can tell, now you think the alt right is evil. That's not being tolerant; it's just redirecting your intolerances to a different group..
The folks you mention make up less than 0.1% of the alt right. Characterizing the entire alt right as evil on that basis is like calling the entire left in the US evil because they include a few thousand Communist Party members.
What the alt right supports at its core is the interests of American citizens over the interests of the rest of the world. I can see how those from the rest of the world might feel it is "not a good image nor a good message" - no doubt you'd prefer the US promote the interests of the rest of the world over those of American citizens - but it's not evil.
