Have you noticed the media overusing the term "far right" for Republicans (and conservatives in other countries) But wondered why they rarely use the term "far left" to describe Democrats? Here's the past 5 years of Google News trends. You don't hate the media enough.

Liberals/Democrats have become increasingly unrecognizable, having inverted on all the classical stances that once made them a strong political party: They’ve exchanged free speech for censorship, peace for endless wars, abandoned the ‘live and let live’ spirit in exchange for canceling people for ‘wrong think;’ instead of a welcoming but sophisticated vetting immigration system, they’ve had a completely open border where anyone from anywhere can come in and get better benefits than actual tax paying American citizens; a once “colour blind” society attempting to live up to Dr, King’s ideals, to now seeing race, sex and gender in everything, causing further hatred and division; soft on crime policies that end up making a victim of the person who committed the crime, and lastly, canceling people who have different opinions, all while championing the idea of being the “party of tolerance”. Many centrists and centre leftist have left or is barely hanging on to the party. Conversely, the conservative right has absorbed and continues to absorb a lot of these classical values, rendering them the party of free speech, embracing the ‘live and let live’ libertarian spirit, meritcratic and color blind ideals, a secure border, inclusiveness, and anti war policies. Thus, the new conservatives have a new and growing faction and beliefs as classical liberals. The left has gone too far. If this is you, you are the new conservatives. So, you are now “right wing.”

They have also abandoned the unions who want to build data centers.

This clip will age well 💯
This is exactly why I love Elon Musk.🫡 When legacy media called him far-right, he put it straight in her face.🫵 “I would like to just admonish you and the media for the absurd characterization of the far-right. It is false and misleading and nonsense.” “Please keep this part in.” "Don’t cut this part." “Nonsense.” This clip will age so well.💯💯

The BBC is really great at being a terrible publication. Their readership is falling very low.

This is how many searches there were for these terms in Google News, NOT how many times the terms come up in news stories. In other words, Google News SEARCH trends, not Google News story trends. You don't hate people enough who say "You don't hate the media enough."

Far Right is not a definition. It's a trick. If you want borders, you're Far Right. If you want family, you're Far Right. If you're proud of your faith and nation, you're Far Right. They don't have an argument, so they have a label. Notice they never say Far Left Antifa, BLM, pro-Hamas mobs are all just activists for them. It's not a Far Right wave sweeping the world. It's people choosing common sense over globalist nonsense.

Rather than say far left I noticed they say "progressive left".

For mainstream media, calling everything they do not like as “far right” is abhorrently convenient.

they're also noticing nobody cares any more, so have started using the term "hard right"

“Far” is a purely technical term in this context. “Far right” refers to political positions that lie far out on the right tail of a Gaussian distribution. It makes no sense to use it for people who have 20 or 50% support. Those political positions are “far right” only inside the media bubble, because there are only communists there, more radical than Stalin, Lenin, and Mao (even they didn't believe there shouldn't be police (quite the contrary), that Somalis are totally interchangeable with Germans, or that we should stop and reverse economic growth, etc.)

It’s an adjacent to ‘racist’.

Far left is only used for things they want to disassociate from....like criminal activity they get caught doing.

Because far left would be people who actually want communism or full-on socialism, and literally no American wants that. Meanwhile, Republicans actually want most of the key tenets of fascism, which is a far-right ideology.

Conservatives were rarely far right in recent times until the last decade or so… that shit is trending and dangerous. Far left is a much smaller percentage from my understanding. Could be dangerous too but they have little power in comparison here and abroad.

Nazis were far left, and the media are basically Nazis, which was confirmed during covid. It's foolish to expect them to call themselves out, and it's expected they would disrepute anyone not as far left as they are.

Calling anything they don’t have an argument against “far right” has become so commonplace in the MSM that I automatically assume I should look closer when I hear it.

In 2016 we were the alt-right for a minute then it went back to far right. The left are such goblins. They’ve stoked every dividing line they can in my country and then tell me they are the good guys.

No it’s always “left-leaning.” Just a little, tiny lean to the left 🫰🏻, no matter how far left they may be.

The mainstream media is the Leftist Communist party. Their wet dream is a communist New World Order.

Look at what your orange slime in chief says everyday. He is indeed extreme far right, a fucking fascist pure and simple.

Discredit your opposition and you'll never have to engage in the debate over substance.

Don't be so sure it's only in the US! Indeed, in Europe, 'far right' don't seem to be far enough. For instance, in France, they're starting to use the term 'ultra right' for anything related to or anyone interested in security, borders, patriotism, family values, you name it.

These are actually SEARCH trends. If you want to see what’s used in publications, you would use Google N-gram Viewer.

Breaking: The US media is so corrupt, they almost got away with charging Rs undiscounted rates for TV advertising, instead of the low rates for bulk buys. There was an 8-1 stay of the corrupt 4th Circuit in RIchmond (full of Obama/BIden activists). youtube.com/watch?v=JaVMwrV6…
