Seems to me, calling the GOP the Right Wing contributes to their delusions of grandeur and self-righteousness. The fact it’s only supposed to be “sitting on the right-hand side of the room” is lost in deliberate ignorance. Looking for a more accurate label. If you don’t like these two choices you’re welcome to ring in with your suggestions. Since other countries have their own versions of a Right Wing, ranging from something equivalent to the US Democratic Party to full-on fascism, y’all are welcome to weigh in on those as well.

    Their primary candidate is talking about eugenics and being “dictator for a day” on the campaign trail. I think the Nazi Party is perfectly descriptive enough and covers all the bases.

      I was gonna say “fascists” but both are good.

    sitting on the right-hand side of the room

    The label for that was ‘Ancien Regime’. That should be the important term to take away from references to the origins of left v right in France.
