The writers and journalists putting this piece together always write it from the point of view that right wing parties and movements just magically come out of the woodwork and start spreading on their own accord as if it’s some sort of seasonal or cyclical trend.
Right wing rhetoric, movements and groups are funded by money. Every political movement only grows through the use of money … the more a group has of it, the stronger they can become, the louder their message and the bigger their movement.
There are lots of left leaning people and movements and they probably outnumber far right extremists. But you know what the difference between the two groups are? MONEY … Right wing extremists have a habit of appearing in national headlines. Left wingers barely ever get the media spotlight other than to be painted as protesters who have no support.
Conservatives enjoy funding far right movements because it is part of a idea of the Overton Window … if you shift the conversation too far to one end of the political spectrum, then you can shift everyone into that direction. No one will accept far right extremists but if you allow them to join the conversation and make them acceptable, then everyone can take one step to the right and now everyone in the left and far left start to look more and more like far left extremists.
Political movements don’t come out of thin air … they are constantly being pumped, primed and sponsored by wealthy benefactors who can move money around in the most discreet ways in order to make the world move in the ways that they want.
