    How Right-wing is too Right-wing for Western leaders?

    Remember just months ago when Meloni was decried as a far-fight fascist by the left same as they decry anyone to the right?

    How Right-wing is too Right-wing for Western leaders?



    ...But what will Biden’s liberal supporters make of that? Meloni, after all, is the first Right-wing populist to become the leader of a Western European country since the Second World War. Her party, the Brothers of Italy, has a convoluted history, but it can be fairly described as the successor to the Italian Social Movement (MSI), which was founded by supporters of Benito Mussolini in 1946....
    To be conservative, then, is to prefer the familiar to the unknown, to prefer the tried to the untried, fact to mystery, the actual to the possible, the limited to the unbounded, the near to the distant, the sufficient to the superabundant, the convenient to the perfect, present laughter to utopian bliss. ― Michael Joseph Oakeshott, Rationalism in Politics and Other Essays

    Tradition is not the worship of ashes, but the preservation of fire. ― Gustav Mahler

    We may yet witness the spectacle of President Biden holding hands with President Le Pen.

    How touching would that be?
    Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.

    They are saying Greece has been taken over by Right-Wingers leaving the Communists with little power. I take it that means immigration might get under control for once?


    Not certain about all of the West, but in much of the EU anyone not approved by the Socialist/Communist Parties are Right-Wingers.

    Founded by supporter of Il Duce … who was a socialist that left the socialist movement because they weren’t barking at the Moon loud enough.

    To the left, anyone opposing single party rule is ‘too far right.’
