Class warfare seems to be a standard part of far right ideology, from Trump crowd to European far right.
- nailer 4y agoTrump isn't far right. If you think he is you likely have very little knowledge of politics.
- rosnd 4y agoOr perhaps you have very little knowledge of politics? From a European perspective, Trump crowd is certainly far right. Shit, even most democrats would be right wing here.
- nailer 4y agoIn Europe. Trumps not advocating for an ethno state, political violence or anything else we’d typically associate with the far right.
- rosnd 4y agoTrump is not advocating for political violence? Huh. Well, I guess that's debatable. I'd argue that his election related claims are exactly that, if the elections are fraudulent what alternatives are there to solve that but violence? What other alternative could there be if the other party has truly pulled off such a coup? Trump also pushes extreme religious views, such as abortion bans (In fact, he claims the abortion ban to have been decided by God himself).
- nailer 4y agoBy that novel standard anyone else with an equally ridiculous conspiracy is calling for violence. Think Trump got in by secretly collating with Putin? Call to violence. Neither situation is how the far right, eg the BNP or German neo nazi groups would operate.
- rosnd 4y ago> Think Trump got in by secretly collating with Putin? Call to violence. I don't understand that one. It's normal to collude with third parties to win elections.
