  1. I dunno about other nations, but what people call far-right in my nation, I don't call politics at all - I call it an anti-democratic movement. A clear as day coup movement. It's largely not worried about politics at all, about the effects that legislation or projects have on people, it's not participating in anything that could be seen as a structured representative ruling - it's only worried about it's own gains. The way it's connected to right wing politics and ultra conservative values is just happenstance. It has nothing to do with ideology, ethics, morals, religious zealousness and other stuff like that directly - because they are very quick to turn around if those don't serve their core purposes, which is taking power and money at every and any cost. It doesn't even have directly to do with most other stuff like neo liberalism, preservation of the status quo, anti-immigrant sentiment, capitalist maximalization, religious interference in government, and other major things attached to the far-right - at least not on the political level. Those are things they exploit, but not things most of them believe in. They are tools, not values. Stepping stones for money and power, not something to be taken as example to follow, or better for society. They don't play and don't wanna play by any rules, the activity is mostly about pushing boundaries of what is reasonable or not, lawful or not, and slowly normalizing some of the most abhorrent and idiotic behaviors I've seen in my entire life inside politics. I should add that this is true regardless if the rules were made by right or left wing parties in the past. It's done this way because it weakens democratic rule, it weakens politics, it weakens opposition, and it weakens the power the electorate and people have at all - which is beneficial to their attempt to take over. And the way they exploit core values of right wing parties is not to advance some sort of politics or ideology, but rather to spread FUD and a moral panic to take over. This is all done to facilitate exploitation to take over power and money. And it's quite transparent. Anyone who looks into the strategies in a broader context will see how the whole things work. Anyone can observe how not political the far right party in my country is by observing what has been proposed and passed over the years they were in power, and in places they still are in power. It's all sabotaging democracy, rule of law, and progress. Even concepts like neo liberalism are only used when it's about selling state assets, getting a bunch of money from capitalists to sell it cheap for investment exploitation, and denying any responsibility when things go awry. It's a modus operandi that is apolitical, because it only cares about itself. They pretend to care about the loudest and most ignorant crowd because they are easy to exploit and indoctrinate. But that's pretty much the only reason to cater to this crowd. There is nothing of substance there to advance right wing ideology, to do the stuff they propose particularly when it can affect right wing politicians and people negatively, and it's all just a mess of contrarianism when they are not in power - because the objetive isn't to pass a set of things that the right wing wants, it's just sabotaging of anything that might be working coming from a supposed left wing government, or even a right wing government if needs to be. This is basically why the far right fights with itself all the time - there is no unified strategy other than the power grab. And when everyone in a group is trying to get at the top with no rules and no system in place, what you get is infighting. Because again, the objective is to take over power so they can put their hands on public coffers, exploit all sorts of corruption deals to enrich themselves with, and rarely ever pass something that pleases the most radical portion of their indoctrinated crowd just to keep radicalism going on, feeding cult of personality stuff, feeding radical terrorist ideals, feeding hatred, and reinforcing their usage of scapegoats to blame on everything that is going wrong in the country. They are obviously never wrong, because responsibility doesn't exist in their dictionaries. It's a word only used when it is to put blame on others for the problems they created on their own. There is no empathy, apology, ponderation, sitting down to discuss issues, or anything remotely close to those. So, what they focus on and are particularly good at is fire hosing the electorate with lies, fake news, disinformation, conspiracy theories, hatred, doubt, hopelessness, cult of personality crap, scams, grifts, and stuff like that. It's their specialty, and perhaps only specialty. Capturing the worst emotions in the electorate from the most vulnerable portion of it to force them to trust and believe that they are the only solutions for the problems the country has, when in fact they are the origin of all of it. I've never seen a single moment in politics where so called far right politicians here in my country sat down to discuss something in a serious manner. Everytime these politicians sat down with the government or even just other politicians to talk about something, it was a sh*tshow of ignorance, shouting contest, a clown show, people clearly not having even a surface level understanding of the subject they were talking about, popular belief crap, conspiracy theories, an ample display of the Dunning-Kruger effect, at the same time that these people keeps making videos of themselves at the worst moments and with the most distorted cuts to put up in social media for self promotion and promotion of radicalism and hatred. The tactic is so flagrant, so transparent, repeated to death, and done every single day that it's hard to understand how serious politicians and justices haven't seem it and prohibited it so far. Reason why I don't even like equating the far right movement in my nation to fascism, Nazism, among other comparisons. It's because even those had some political structuring to them. No matter how wrong they were, no matter the ills it caused upon the world and the nations that had to endure their rule, they had political goals with their ideologies. What we call right wing in my nation today has no political goals, has no ideology, has no structure, has no central core of beliefs and strategy - it's all a lose and ever changing set of things that can be used to exploit an ignorant electorate. It can change at any time if it helps their tactic of FUD, because the objective is solely money and power to themselves, not for the country, not for the electorate. And so, I cannot call these people who became the supposed far-right in my nation as politicians or a political party. It's not. They are criminals. Their place is outside politics and inside a jail cell. They are scammers who are attempting to topple democracy to take over power. Even the values right wing people have are nothing but a tool to them. This has been proven to exhaustion again and again by their own actions and their own status. There is no political advance of the right in my country after 4 years of a far right president in power and many congressmen, senators, governors, mayors and whatnot that are supposedly from that branch of politics - there's only a trail of corruption, lies, personal enrichment, environmental destruction, feminicide, violence, prejudice based crimes, division, extremism and nothing else to show. That's not politics. That's anti-politics. That's the path to destruction for a democracy. That's an attempt to turn rule in a nation towards a totalitarian dictatorship, or a theocracy. Take all the power away from the people, and back into a ruthless elite minority, that mandates what people should do or not, have the rights to or not, how they should behave, and what they deserve. If people don't realize that this is what the "far right" movement really is in their own nations, democracy will be constantly at risk. Now, I have no problems discussing all sorts of topics with right wing or left wing politicians. I don't consider myself a partisan to any of those sides, I actually disagree with a lot of stuff on both sides. But it's the fact that I can calmly sit down and discuss those things with anyone of any party that defines them being a political party inside a democracy to me. If the supposed party cannot sit down to discuss those subjects, it's not a political party, not inside a democratic system.
