Continuingly annoyed at family members saying "I want socialist things implemented in a socialist way by a socialist government, which is why I'm supporting the hard right!"
They just want their "socialism" with a "national" in front.
This is my idiot dad. All he wants is a comprehensive welfare state with high pensions, world class healthcare, impeccable infrastructure, finding for science and education, high wages and no non-whites or LGBT people.
I mean that's the appeal of fascism
The appeal of pre civil rights era America.
A lot of right wingers who say stuff like this have realized free marker capitalism won't deliver them a white's only paradise with mandatory patriotism, there would have to be a huge amount of central planning and protectionism to do that.
