The "far right" can and does have polar-opposite attitudes towards Israel, so all of what you wrote applies equally to that. Yet the Guardian leads with "far right", but actively misleads on her semitism.
- virgildotcodes 1y agoSure, the far right does have polar opposite attitudes towards Israel. I don't understand what any of this has to do with the comment I was replying to that seemed to imply that there was some sort of contradiction between being far right and jewish.
- like_any_other 1y agoI wasn't implying any contradiction. I was drawing attention to the fact that framing her as "far right" falsely ascribes her position as coming from some abstract political ideals [1], when it is nothing more than in-group/out-group distinction.
