    Please indicate the part where it’s acceptable to do the things he does and please indicate how the things he does are not fascist because he is absolutely unequivocably 100% undeniably a fascist and you’re arguing he isn’t presumably because you have some kind of vested interest.

    Is it possible that you voted reform at some point and are now kind of feeling a bit guilty?

    The reason fascism is actually on the rise in the west is because people like you see it and say it’s acceptable because it isn’t fascism and they therefore fine.

      No, the reason these parties are on the rise is because a significant portion of the electorate feel ignored, and have done for a number of years. They might not actually support a lot of what these parties are promising, but people are using them as a vehicle for protest and to make themselves heard.

      The reason these parties are doing well is a failure for the governments we’ve had across Europe to deal with the issues people care about.
