France’s far-right leader Jordan Bardella said Friday he had cancelled his speech at a right-wing meeting in Washington after a “gesture alluding to Nazi ideology” by conservative firebrand Steve Bannon.

    That moment when you’re too far right for the far-right.

      100% garanteed Bardella and the whole party do Nazi salutes between themselves. Just never in public - those who do get kicked out. The US far right simply tested the boundary long enough to realize that no one will do shit about any of it - but Europe still pushes back when we see it.

        Fascism only happens when it sneaks up on societies and takes them by surprise, so shhhhh 🤫 😉

    Oh don’t shy away now, where you cons going?

    also

    Yesterday, while I was not present in the room, one of the speakers out of provocation allowed himself a gesture alluding to Nazi ideology.

    ‘allowed himself a gesture’ sounds like ‘helped himself to a chocolate’

      It was an irresponsible luxury he does not approve of. He’d love to do it, but he’s too responsible to indulge.

    Did they check the ADL guidelines on this?

      We need a pic like this with the new one below it. Let’s see how long that pic can get by the end of Trump’s term, assuming he gives up his throne they propped him up on.

    Even the rest of the world’s far right are telling Trump’s entourage not to go full Nazi.

      I would like to see the far right in the United States explode and implode, suffer such great humiliation in the elections that they have some kind of post-traumatic stress disorder from following Nazi tactics.

      You mean, he is a Nazi. He probably just forgot how to do the salute, that’s why he hasn’t done it yet.

        He can’t move his arm that fast, or raise it that high.

    What ever happened to Bannon’s feud with Musk? He fell in line, I guess? Or just fell out of Trump’s sphere?

      He’s not feudung with Trump he’s feuding with Musk, neo nazis are always trying to purge their own ranks, they’re constantly trying to kill eachother for their own success, neo nazi groups tend to kill more rival neo nazis than anyone else.

    For all the talk about how leftists hate each other it’s important to remember that far right people hate each other too.
