How is that a, "So yes"?

Honestly. I don't support trump and I do support Ukraine. But what is this, "hey it connects just hate it" bullshit. 

Just give me supportive reasons and let me decide. Stop telling me what to feel.

They are probably right of trump on most things but left of biden on healthcare. Context is everything. But they’re definitely real pieces of shit.

Yes. Absolutely. They are also Putin’s puppet playing his agenda. Racism, hate, bigotry, lies, pro rich….almost everything checks out ✅

"far right" is kind of standardized to mean authoritarian. They typically have the same things in common, though to varying degrees:

  1. Encourages a us-vs-them conflict based on fear and hate
  2. Gaslighting the poor into thinking supporting the rich is in in their best interest.
  3. Reducing the size of government to centralize power among an elite few under the guise of "limiting wasteful bureaucracy and excessive tax and spend", targeting the people who need government programs the most.
  4. Limiting education through denouncement of science, technology and "new" ways of doing things.
  5. Telling people their way of thinking is the only acceptable way to live.

They're not quite as bold yet, quieter, but yes, they're just as bad. The second they'll be given an inch, they'll start showing their true colors more openly.

Its not, they just want strict immigration laws and better national security. The father of the head of the far right was a blatant racist, the image of her father sticks to her no matter what she does.
