I have grown tired of people not accepting that a party can truly be far right and try to put it off as being a shift in perception of the general public.
I think journalists have to realize that crying wolf always stops working when you need it the most.
It's funny how people avoid this term. The far left party in the German parliament ("Die Linke") would never deny they're far left. (Their name literally translates to "The Left".)
My comment was more about how the US media/english-speaking media describes non-left parties. All the populists on the left side of the spectrum are “left wing”, but their political counterparts are always “far” right.
But sure, let’s continue this whole “he did it, so I’m doing it too”
So, irrelevant to the topic under discussion?
