"Populist" basically means "supported by the ordinary people" (otherwise, the people -- Latin "populus" -- would not vote for such politicians). Most people have common sense: that is why such policies are popular.

@@DieFlabbergast i believe the definition is a bit arbitrary in the political sense these days. As usually the establishment centre-left or centre-right parties never get called populist despite usually getting more votes from the public over a longer period of time. It’s weaponised by the establishment today and used as a unflattering negative label for insurgent parties, usually on the right of the political spectrum that threaten the establishment. Ironically it’s used in a way to try and make the party look more fringe and risky as if only nutters support it and it’s not as popular as what they’d want you to believe.

Nationalist or globalist is what's relevant, forget left or right.

Agree. It's akin to constantly using words like racist, transphobe etc. They are labels used by people who don't have answers to the hard questions that people like Zemmour raise. From what I've read about Zemmour, he takes a hard line on Islam and its incompatibility with French life. He also takes a dim view of LGBT and the way it's pushed in schools. Many people would not consider these to be far right views.

The Far right number in the dozens and have been in decline since the 70s. Anyone who honestly (any party with revolutionary in the name does not) engages with democracy and the ballot box is not and should not be described as Far anything.

Immigration is about Cheap Labour and inflated house prices from the perspective of the capitalist policy (top 20% where the wealth is going), vote rigging is the socialist policy and destruction of Nation, tradition and cohesion is the Globalist policy. People, like that well known globalist organization who people mistake for communists, but are the worst of capitalists. When you own nothing, who owns everything? They believe that because Islam is a globalist religion, its adherents will be more malleable than the indigenous population of Europe to their ideas.
