Think I read somewhere that some of these far right groups have some popularity with the youth as well, Tories are a unique outlier with how shit they are with young people.
Well the Tories have waged warfare on the youth for 15 years.
If the youth didnât hate them then there is something seriously wrong with them.
But reformâŚ
What Farage said about the NHS the other day.
He didnât even say anything that bad but he got absolutely roasted by everyone else who didnât really address his point.
They just repeated catchphrases about privatisation like a cult
Somebody sees that, of course they will find the only person saying something different about a topic a little more intriguing.
Especially when everyone else shouts them down, and consider these people are some of the worst politicians around.

Governments resigning over elections to the EU parliaments? Even when we were in the EU, nobody even paid attention to MEP elections.
31% for far right Le Pen and 15% for Macronâs party.
Thatâs a huge gap and now Macron wants a vote of confidence.
My guess is it will backfire tremendously and France will turn hard right on the cusp of hosting the Olympics
Nah, thereâs no historical precedent for the Olympics being held under a far right government⌠

Dâya know what all those popular far-right parties have in common? Theyâre all pro-Zionism.
Wilders - Zionist
Farage - Zionist
Le Pen - Zionist
Orban - Zionist
AFD - Zionist
Trump - Do I even need to bloody say it?
Meloni - Zionist
Support in the Western populations for Israel has taken a sharp dive in the months since 7th October, are Israel now buying support and hoping to influence populist Western voters into being âfriends of Israelâ?

And yet very many of them hate Jews. Itâs almost like Zionism and Judaism arenât the same thing. 
Someone needs to get the memo to Bibi.

A salient point made by Greenwald:
One can lament this and blame them, or try to understand it:
I wonât hold my breath though. When the left loses, according to themselves: itâs everyoneâs fault except theirs. 
What specifically are you referring to here?
Social media is a cancer

Many left leaning parties will blame the voter, not their own shortcomings and tone deafness.
We saw it with Democrats losing to Trump (Bernie bros, xenophobes, misogynists, rUsSIA and so forth, while no self reflection or admission of their own shortcomings) and we see it in the Netherlands with the left losing badly to the many right wing parties, most notably the PVV of Wilders.

Why?
Social media is the ultimate democratization of society. Everyone has got a voice.
MIs-information is a cancer, there happens to be a lot of it out there but a fair proportion of it does congregate on, and get amplified by, social media.

Thats 8 years ago. And the democrats are as centre as you can get. And yea sure, there was some of that sentiment but there was also plenty of âwe need to look at ourselvesâ type rhetoric too, as there is in pretty much any election loss.
I cant speak with any knowledge on the elections in the Nederlands. In France weâve just seen Macron react to European defeat by calling a national poll. Over here in Ireland our biggest left leaning party has just got shat upon and done nothing of the sort.
Basically, Iâm sure you could find a few examples of what you are talking about in the same way examples could probably be found for right leaning candidates and parties, but I donât think thereâs a universal or even significant merit in the claim you are making.
