Presumably the US wants the EU to permit more Far-right 'conservativism'? ▶ this video 1 Progressive vs 20 Far-Right Conservatives (ft. Mehdi Hasan) This is apparently representative of what that means at this moment in time. I think it's pretty extreme too, but on searching, none of the participants' positions seem to have been disowned by their own side. One of them actually fundraised $30000 afterwards.
Sorry but "I don't know people like that" is anecdotal evidence and is part of the your echo chamber. Maybe listen to the people Mehdi Hassan debated with here: ▶ this video
Wait a minute, he spread misinformation about COVID and the „stolen“ election and reaches millions of people but I‘m the bad guy? He has definitely caused more violence than I. Kirk and others boost people like those here ▶ this video Show one who got influenced by me. That would be really interesting. That I spread misinformation has to be proven. He referenced the 50s and 60s on purpose, the good old times and he knows his peers and what the associate with that time period. So he either knew exactly what association he sent with that or he was naive. I don’t think he was naive. Given all what he said there is a clear subtext you try to ignore.
> When I was a fresh immigrant child comments like these used to make me feel more uncomfortable than they do now. How I perceive these comments has changed over time. I don't wish you to be uncomfortable, I'm happy to hear your comfort increases as you age. Still, maybe it's worth taking note that the kinds of people that believe in great replacement will never see you as anything other than Indian, same for your children. You may feel less Indian and more something else, but others disagree. Check out the first reply to your comment. Ignored everything you said about identity, just says "Gee, sounds like you brought the Caste system from India to Canada!" Please keep a wary eye out. Reminds me of that Jubilee video that just came out with a bunch of fascists vs Mehdi Hasan - there's a couple non white conservatives there who watch supposed ideological allies say directly in front of them that they don't want non whites in the country. ▶ this video
