I have found a bug in the topics tag filter where when submitting hyphenated compound words, it says “invalid tags”.

Tags: bug

It doesn't allow me to filter words like neo-nazi or alt-right, for example.

    I should point out that it's currently not possible to create a tag containing a hyphen (or any non-alphanumeric character). Therefore, there are no topics with a "neo-nazi" or "alt-right" tag to be filtered anyway.

    These topics are tagged "neo nazis" and "alt right" or "altright". If you want to filter out topics with these tags, use the non-hypenated versions.

    EDIT: It looks like @Soptik has corrected all the historical "altright" tags to "alt right", for consistency. Thanks, Soptik!
