At risk of falling foul of that well known internet law. The obvious reference point is the Nazis. If one walks through the
Topographie des Terrors in Berlin there’s an exhaustive account of how propaganda was used to divide the population, against Jews, against travellers, against homosexuals, against the disabled. Anyone not determine or be of pure blood. Divisive rhetoric to distract the population.
100 years on the groups might have changed but the MO I’d the same.
We know what the extreme right is. That’s not the question. It’s whether the shoe fits.
