If our government makes Jews wear yellow stars now, that upstart Hitler fellow won't stand a chance in the next election. 🙄

Adopting far-right policies to stop the far right gaining influence - continues to be the stupidest idea in European politics today.

You cannot "out far right" the far right. If you adopt one policy they want, they will always have more (and darker) policies to push. So, what then? You just keep following them down the path towards more human rights abuses and eventually atrocity crimes?

And how long will it take voters to figure out you're just a cheap copy and then vote for the original?
