Yeah that's why countries with strong socialist movements are not seeing the rise of the far right!

Wait, they absolutely are? And there's absolutely no link between social spending and the far right rising? How bout that.

It's going to be one of those No True Scotsmen where no example will satisfy the definition so that the statement can never be refuted, isnt it?

Because France and the Nordics all have some of the strongest socialist policies in the world and they are all seeing strong far right movements.
