  • That’s categorically untrue.

    No matter how good your leadership is, the far right can literally exploit ANYTHING negative happening.

    The 2007/08 market crash was purely down to the US fucking up their own markets and it rippled out of there - but the far right latched onto it and immediately blamed the EU and visa foreign workers.

    The 2012-2015 immigration crisis was also thanks to the US (specifically their middle Eastern interventionalism), yet the far right managed to grab onto the issue and win serious ground with it - even though the situation was mostly well handled given the circumstances.

    The one thing the (far) right does well is taking the truth and twisting it into hateful, fear-mongering rhetoric.
