By far right I mean the Trumpers, Germany’s AfD, and other European fellow travelers. They’re not anti-war, they’re anti-this particular war. They’re not against the ethnic cleansing of Palestine or the annexation of Greenland. So far this second Trump administration seems to want to refocus on the Monroe Doctrine and on containing China (somehow).
The left is no longer my left, especially in Canada, with all this stupid gender theory crap that goes against nature and the natural way of things.
I mostly disagree here. While the liberal left’s pinkwashing is pretty crap, the actual left’s gender theory and critical race theory are solid, and gender essentialism is illusory.
Trumpers aren’t far right, they’re conservative, big difference. There may some elements that are, but the majority aren’t what I would call Far Right. NeoLiberalism is far right authoritarian if you want to get specific. The cancelling of individuals for unpopular ideas, is Far Right behaviour as well.
Joe Bolton is a prime example of Far Right (NeoCon), Mike Pompeo, and John McCain.
You really should watch the Joe Rogan video I posted this evening. Might open some eyes.
I don’t know enough about the German AFD and I hesitate to call them far right because I’m jaded enough to know that because we’re being fed that, doesn’t necessarily make it so.
We should be fearful when governments deny political parties the right to form a government, as the current government in Germany is trying to do with the AfD. and what is happend in Romania. This is NOT democracy. Neither is weaponizing censorship, which even Canada is doing.
