Hey, bleeding hearts and artists...

bodice ripper

Anyone else notice how in the last two or three years it seems right wing opinions have become more fashionable online?

What's this got to do with artists?

To be fair, this may be simultaneously occuring in the real world, but I haven't noticed because I would avoid discussing social issues wiht anyone i don't know really well.

It's not more fashionable and it's a pity that it isn't more popular. We could do with a right wing party in Ireland badly to balance out the left. The people that think our current parties are anyway right wing haven't got a clue

I'd say polarised and more entrenched opinions have become more prevalent in the last few years, especially on the interwebs, where there is little fear of real world repercussions. Take the "gender war" imported from "Merica BS of late, the hardcore nuts are about equal an online presence. The more moderates are more on the "liberal" or what is termed liberal these days side.

so, have you an example of a country with a seriously right wing streak that you feel is getting it right?


btw, I think the fact that Ireland doesn't have a far right party says great things about ireland

Yeah, that we are a decade or two behind the rest of Western Europe on imjigration matters. We didn't receive many up until the late 90s. Give it time.

Used to think it - there really seemed to be a coterie of "Being right-wing is cool" types, especially younger people, who seemed like they were 30/40 years older - but now I think it's just extremist views on both ends of the political spectrum that are drowning out everyone else on social media.
There are people though who do seem to be far-right for show (e.g. loyalists supporting Israel) whereas far-left people, even though they can be downright toxic and often completely out of touch with reality, genuinely seem to believe in what they say.

What are you on about? It's almost a revolutionary act for someone under 30 to come out with stereotypical "right wing" views in public such as being pro Israel, against gay marriage, anti mass immigration etc.

If a credible right wing party set up tomorrow, they would have a heap of death threats and a media smear campaign against them by next week.

Yeh I don't think that any more now that there's an extremely aggressive hardline left voice out there gaining prominence - but it definitely felt like it for a while. Possibly more of a US thing, and a leftover from the GWB era.

I was very right wing whan I was younger. I grew out of it.

From what I can see,on the Continent-the Kids are turning away from "liberal" side of things and becoming more conservative because they don't want to end up in multiple failed marraiges with only half siblings like their hippy dippy parents.They face challenges in the globalized workplace that their parents didn't, (though the right are pushing this agenda as vigorously as the left here in Sweden).More crime.

Without a doubt OP. Might be due in part to the global recession we had. The way people consume media might have something to do with it to, we can pick and choose to support our own viewpoints online.

We don't have a strong left wing in this country. We have been ruled by center right parties for decades.

The Irish are very naive about immigration. For decades we exported people and when the roles were reversed many felt proud at Ireland's progress. Unfortunately we need only look at Britain to see the effects of large scale immigration from the third world. Across Europe the situation is similar.

Fortunately their is hope. People across Europe are waking up and reclaiming their heritage and demanding change.

Here is a great speech from the Sweden Democrats. I especially like how he destroys the commie fool at the end.

Endless of waves of immigration. The tribes of man are not meant to live together. Good fences make good neighbors. Watch the clip I posted and you will understand.

Now a question for you. Why do we need third world immigration and 'diversity'? Why is only white countries that 'need' diversity?

Theres no such thing as the "tribes of man" as far as I know.

Occassionally people want to come here and occasionally it suits the state and society to let them. Some will train here, some will live here. I'm unaware of anyone stating that "only white countries" need diversity.

And to be honest, there is no such thing as "white countries".

Oh yes I forgot, you can't call yourself white anymore. That's racist. Of course you didn't watch. I'm everything you hate in the world, a white person who doesn't hate himself. The only people you hate more are working class white people who have to deal the reality of mass immigration. A bit like the thousands of white girls in Britain who were culturally enriched by Pakistanis.

Countries where the indigenous people are White can be called White countries.

The same way countries where the indigenous people are black are Black countries. But Nodin and his kind would never, ever tell a black person there are no black countries. That would be racist!
