Is the term "far-right" used to mean anyone who doesn't obey marching orders and won't conform to opinions of others?
No, it's used to mean anyone who's extremely likely to obey marching orders, dancing orders, camping orders, attack orders (jan 6th on USA, jan 8th on Brazil) and conform to the opinions of their masters
Literally the opposite.
After the French Revolution, parliament was arranged so that the people who supported democracy and freedom literally sat on the left hand side; and all of the freeloading, self serving, bootlicking monarchists that wanted to return to rule by a king or queen sat on the right hand side.
Far right are that but more extreme. They don't just lick boots but also the assholes of the politicians and billionaires that they worship like gods.
No, it means "reactionary." Expand your vocabulary.
No, anarchists are in the left.
Yes, anarchists are leftists. I am asking about the context that people use the term "far right" as a collective insult. The common theme I see is it seems people are labelled "far right" as a tactic by those who live through the internet and not outside shaking hands with new people, done as tactic online to prevent anyone speaking bluntly that is not terrified of words, or disagreements and objections.
Yeah this may have fooled people before Trump and the Charlottesville NC rally and the rest of the world embracing hate, but they ain't fooling anyone anymore. Stuff it. We know and you know what TF "far right" means. Stop the concern-trolling bullshit.
Haven't you heard? The masks are off. You don't need to justify it anymore or hide it. Just come out and say what you really believe.
far right is nazis pal
Is there any evidence that the people doing the attack are Nazis? Based on the content of the e-mails, they seem more like 13-year-old edgelords.
What my comment is replying to:
Dude, do you think a group that hates "diversity" in its every shape and form is just "moderate"?
There is no such thing as diversity if nobody is allowed to reject what you believe in, reject your opinions, a la "diverse opinions and beliefs".
Believing that certain groups must be eradicated isn't covered under my tolerance of "diverse opinions".
By your logic, you must show respect and acceptance to libertarians or anyone who follows religious teachings if they are not trying to punch or shoot anyone. Other than that, that's what criminal law is for, to protect everyone from execution or assassination, but rejecting people, refusing to associate certain types of people because they find certain kind of people disgusting does not equate to planning mass murder.
Do you think one should also show acceptance of highly defamatory speech, and only punish the very people that act out on them?
Publicly banning opinions and beliefs is the fastest way to lead to murder and physical violence. Most commonly, murdering those that have been banned for not conforming. But if you can find other areas of personal interests and enjoyment to build friendships with people who disagree with your opinions, the collective whole is not so hostile.
Wrong social network bub. You might be looking for gab.
