      Being racist does not make you far-right

      Being openly racist absolutely does mean being right wing. What else would it mean? That’s the main platform the right has, they just bury it under euphemisms and pretend it doesn’t exist. The ones who are too stupid to obfuscate their racist remarks are the far-right.

          We weren’t discussing a left wing party here, it’s a right wing party that you said wasn’t far-right because of their openly stated racism. I could have been clearer in my response, but I’m saying that by being openly racist (and by maintaining relationships with members who are openly racist), this right wing party is far-right.

          You are correct though about the actual distinction between leftism and rightism being support for capitalism, thank you for clarifying that.

          It’s not their racism, that’s just the fart on top of the shit cake. It’s their right wing populism.
