A “Far Left Politician” is practically invisible, and usually harmless. But a Far Right politician is dangerous.

To be called “Far Right” implies someone is a horrible person, and you should probably hiss at them if they get too close. But on the prime time news, even bureaucrats pushing for One World Government, or slave owning dictators like President Xi are rarely introduced as “the Far Left President Xi”. That would give the game away, wouldn’t it? There would be constant reminders of the dangers of going “too far left”.
In its purest form the political right just want individual rights and smaller government, yet the “definition” of far right keeps shape-shifting to become somehow horribly authoritarian, “like Hitler”, of course, (the Socialist). Who benefits from this absurd definition? — Big Leftist collectivists, of course.
We the people cannot even have a conversation with easily recognizable words. The word fog is not an accident.
The real horrors are not the right wing people waving a national flag, and talking about individual rights, but the far left committees in Brussels or Davos that want to take your money, inject you, tell you what you can say, and take away a medicine that might save your life.
Namecalling is a powerful tool.
As a general rule of thumb, far right is anyone who is not far left or who otherwise disagrees with the far left.

âFar Rightâ is just the shortened form of âFar too often Rightâ!
Difference between a Far Right conspiracy theory and the truth? Hmm, about two years.

Yes, it’s always worth reminding people what Nazi is short for in German.

Or, as has been said, “far right, or right so far?” May have been Pauline Hanson?

I think the key is to embrace the label, and carry it as a badge of honor.
“MAGA” is, to my lefty relatives and acquaintances, a horrid insult. I have three hats that say MAGA. I alternate between them.
“Fascist” and “racist” are similar. If you wish to label me as such for your idiotic and illiterate reasons, fine, but get out of my way.
The fact that you are running as fast as you can to the left doesn’t mean that I’m moving to the right, unless you consider yourself to be the center of the universe, in which case I don’t much care what you think of anything.

If you want to be an extreme right wing person these days, believe in the following:
-small government,
-individual responsibility and
-that the traditional family is the basic building block of society.
Its that easy.

The endless conflation of National Socialist Hitler with the extreme right is typical of the deceit. The battle between Hitler and Stalin was socialist dictator against communist dictator. The destruction of all human rights and lives was common. There was no rule of law.
But the left do not compare mass murdering dictators to Stalin, because he remains a hero. Our Prime Minister Albanese follows his hero Trotsky and Greens Leader Dr Adam Bandt adores mass murdering Lenin.
And anybody who disagrees is called Extreme Right, as if they were Hitler.
Lost in all this are the Conservatives who believe in all rights,the rule of law, democracy, the Constitution.
It was our own Prime Minister who attempted last year to consign our Constitution to the rubbish bin with his Voice, a committee he would appoint which would rule over the parliament, the public service and the legal system. Call it a politburo.
We just escaped absolute Communist rule by Anthony Albanese and Adam Bandt and their attempt to extinguish our democracy legally. Just as Hitler did. And like all Fascists, they were supported by Big Business and the Public Service including their ABC/SBS and Pravda on the Yarra.
And the approved attacks on the Jews and Israel are well underway, as recognized internationally. And no one calls it out as classic Fascism. The world has seen it all before. I doubt Trump’s MAGA will have anything to do with our Fascist government.

Far right also includes the belief of verifiable facts over emotion.
How many times have we commented that you can’t reason with the left. Facts will not sway them. Quizzing them over HOW their policies will operate is tantamount to heresy. And then the name calling commences.
Those to the right of Stalin will not be heard in the modern world. Well not unless you own a printing press, (see Musk).

“Far right” as a slur has its origins after WW2 when Leftists didn’t want to be associated with the evils of the National Socialists. So rather than calling them of the Left, they said they were of the right
The philosopher of fascism, of which National Socialism is a derivative, was Giovanni Gentile, a Hegelian Marxist.
Leftists need to stop being in denial about the true nature of National Socialism. And we see from the Left much of the same behaviour today such as extreme environmentalism, veganism, black uniform wearing thugs of Antifa, antisemitism, violence, boycotts, âyouth movementsâ and indoctrination of youth etc..
Fascism and its derivative National Socialism is, to be sure, a different flavour of socialism than communism and Marxism, and today’s Leftists claim not to like National Socialists but Leftists have always been at war with other factions of the Left, there’s nothing new there.
A difference between National Socialism and Fascism as compared to communism is that the former do allow some private ownership of industry, as long as industry does exactly what Government wants, which is more or less what we have now. National Socialism allows for a longer period of time to achieve state ownership of industry than communism which wants to do it overnight.
As for the Left-Right political spectrum I place pro-freedom ideologies on the Right and anti-freesom ideologies on the Left, including National Socialism and Communism. Our Liberal-Labor parties are centrist but becoming increasingly Leftist, the same with Republican-Democrats in the US before TRUMP but now he is moving the Republicans to the Right, pro-freedom side.

Well, they haven’t started stoning, pressing,
or burning us “far right” folks, yet! Have they?
I’d rather equate CO2 as the modern witch.
Witches did unexplained things, as does CO2.
And the ClimateCult⢠is trying to purge it.

‘Back in the day’, which is the newfangled way of saying back in the old days, ‘far out’ was a way of expressing approval. If you described someone or something as far out then it was or they were cool and groovy.
There are very few political positions. You never hear far back or far forward, far up or far down, far away even.
There’s only far right really, because you don’t often hear about the far left or even just the left. People are very quiet about the left, especially far left. Which is a shame. I think people who say far right should listen to Yeonmi Park talk about the far left. About what life and death is like in the glorious communist Democratic People’s Republic of Korea.

People who work for Government and Government instrumentalities, including ABC, SBS, schools and universities do so, bye and large, because they have a deep down fundamental distrust of private ‘for profit’ enterprise and as such are, whether they would embrace it or not, socialists, ultimately falling into the ‘we know best’ camp of not trusting people to make their own decisions based on objective observation and not wanting to expose the people to true equity … people getting what they deserve, both as individuals and groups … pretending that equality of outcomes is somehow equity, which it is most definitely not.

Great point you make TdeF about the conflation of Hitler (a socialist ie, NSDAP) and the right. A point I would also like to make is that the leaders of these far left regimes – such as Hitler – usually end up as totalitarian dictators. Let’s take Mao Zedung, Pol Pot, Putin, Castro, and so on. Governments of the far left usually look stable and solid until they collape in a shambles.Democratic governments of the right often look like a shambles but somehow survive through time and give their citizens a fair and stable society.
I’ll go for right- leaning government every time.

I’m a Conservative and I believe in the Family front and centre, upholding the law, freedom, small government, the free enterprise system and most importantly I believe in logic and reason.
Obviously I could never ever vote for Labor, Greens or the Teals or any other far left groups who seem to hate science.

Never forget: The National Socialist Workers Party’ was a party of the left, NOT of the right as almost everyone assumes. The ALP was affiliated with it for a time in the early 1930’s

Liberal Party Beliefs:
In the inalienable rights and freedoms of all peoples; and we work towards a lean government that minimises interference in our daily lives; and maximises individual and private sector initiative.
In government that nurtures and encourages its citizens through incentive, rather than putting limits on people through the punishing disincentives of burdensome taxes and the stifling structures of Laborâs corporate state and bureaucratic red tape.
In those most basic freedoms of parliamentary democracy â the freedom of thought, worship, speech and association.

My definition of Left is someone who thinks superficial caring is better than nothing, hence, everybody who doesn’t agree is uncaring and far right.
The Right are people who think that if it’s superficial, just forget about it and use the time to look after yourself.

I wonder what they’ll call 22 year old Grace Stanke who is a Nuclear engineer and the 2023 Miss America.
Dick Smith and 18 year old Will Shackel will be touring with her around Australia and the clueless “3 eyes Allan” dummy in Victoria will not be pleased.

The control of language is a powerful tool. Witness what is happening in the UK right now with â grooming gangsâ. And some journalists and politicians fighting back using ârape gangsâ as the description of what went on. Possibly still going on.
The left use control of language to manipulate the emotional responses of the proletariat. We arenât allowed strong responses against behaviour of some Pakistani men because all of them would be Muslims. And the left, who see people as acting as members of groups and not individuals, see that as criticising the religion of Islam and by extension, prophet Mohammad.
Calling the gangs âgrooming gangsâ elicits a more âcivilisedâ emotional response. And it enables the behaviour to be ignored more easily. Somehow we are asked to believe that grooming is ALL that occurred.
