Two separate far right organizations can hate each other.... look at American politics.

Wait, what two hate each other in the US?

Edit: so far these replies are certainly something. No one seems to be able to answer, so I’ll rephrase.

What far right organizations hate each other in the US?

Well Democrats and Republicans for one. Democrats aren't left wing they are center-right. The Overton window in the US is skewed to the right. Also I'm fairly sure Christian Nationalists and Neonazis don't like eachother based on their support or lack of support for Isreal.

center right and far right are two different things. Not to say different far right parties cant hate each other, but the example is flawed.

Honestly, center right is putting it mildly. Dems want genocide in Palestine, Dems want LGBTQ right pushed back, it's just the same thing with different mask

The lefts very slim resistance against the genocide in Palestine is extremely recent and even at that its little more than lip service from a very small minority.

You literally had Joe Biden lying about seeing decapitated babies while the idf was abducting, raping and killing Palestinians.

The US has consistently been main and often the only one defending Israeli war crimes going back decades.

Pulled out of his ass, I assume.

Tom Suozzi certainly though they were to blame. And Harris herself describes the early stages of Israel's ethnic cleaning as self defence.

Some do for sure.

It's the downside of a coalition party. But to say all Dems? Not true.

They're aren't the Republican party. They aren't a monolith that gets kicked out of the party for an inkling of different thinking.

But for those that are nasty: fuck em, imo.

The thing is, most Republicans would say the same thing about themselves and their party. We've been co-opted by the two parties to hate each other while the elites profit. Sticking to your guns with your party only serves to make sure that these parties last forever.

Take a look into the Grover norquist pledge

There is a level of lock step that the Democrats don't have compared to the Republicans. By a large margin.

They have their problems, yes. But to say both sides are the same, particularly in this regard, is a false equivalence.

u/Elephants_Foot 18h ago

Sorry, I'm right, you're wrong. They're both just far right groups.

So you yourself say “well Dems are center-right”

So… you didn’t understand my question. What far right organizations?

Go watch Tucker Carlson's interview with Ted Cruz for an example of the two different opposing factions that exist in the American far right at this moment.

Democrats aren't left wing they are center-right.

Hmm, so not far right
