Definition of Far-right

Far-right is not Fascist or Nazi. Fascists or Nazis are left. Mussolini was a communist and the Fascist Party in Italy evolved from Marxism. This is well documented. The German Nazi Party was the German Workers National Socialist Party-they were socialists and identified as socialists from the left. Read Hitler's Nazi Party platform. Is it right or is it left?

It's right. And you're wrong. Emeraude (talk) 08:26, 26 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Fascism belongs to the left side of the aisle as much as communism. Mussolini was a member of the Socialist party of Italy until 1914. Fascists believe in big government as much as the political left, welfare programs, atheism, totalitarian ideals, anti-freedom, anti-american, anti-captitalist etc and prefer violence to get ahead. Look at the so called Antifa, our modern day fascists.

This is factually incorrect, and this isn't the place to repeat these tired talking-points regardless. For convenience, see Talk:Far-right politics/FAQ. There is nothing more about this that needs to be said on this talk page. Grayfell (talk) 23:51, 8 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Impartiality

[edit]

Article is basically Left-wing propaganda, which goes against Wikipedia's impartiality policy. 93.138.240.236 (talk) 07:05, 5 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Is there anything specific you take issue with? Everything appears to be adequately sourced. — Czello 07:06, 5 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Policy

[edit]

Just before I edit, was wondering if anyone has an issue with me including their policy on renationalisation of the railways?

I would like the word: "Fascist," to be removed from the description of this political party, as it is a democratic Nationalist party that seeks to field candidates in democratic elections.

As such, in pursuing a democratic course and path it is no more:. "Fascist," than the SNP. I.E. Not at all. 213.205.198.67 (talk) 17:30, 4 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

A "party that seeks to field candidates in democratic elections" applies also to the Nazis, Mussolini's Fascists and the British Union of Fascists! Indeed, just about every fascist group ever has contested democratic elections! By that argument, none of them were fascist either! Emeraude (talk) 07:43, 8 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I have done some research of this particular political party and it has come to my attention that we should add a 'Paramilitary wing' named "Combat 18', it's the official British National Party's paramilitary. Charlieo308 (talk) 04:53, 10 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
