Because they're still alt-right?

Again you have no idea what "And" means, do you? as in, the two subjects are different from one another so I include both with the conjunction "and" to make that distinction?

The way you worded it was somewhat ambiguous.

You could have been saying
"ostracize those who fulfill both of these 2 separate groups 'alt right' and 'anti-vax' (and implicitly not necessarily ostracize those who fulfill only one)"
You could have been saying "ostracize those who fulfill this singular group 'alt-right and anti-vax' "
Or you could have been saying (what you were apparently saying)
"ostracize those who fulfill at least one of these 2 groups 'alt-right' and 'anti-vax' "

I can see the argument you'd have that your meaning is the most reasonable interpretation of your sentence, but it's untrue to say there was 0 ambiguity.
