The Chic Far Right

The Chic Far Right

When the once called "proletariat" began to climb positions and become part of the middle classes, the charm of "socialism" began to be lost, the left wing parties in the world have been losing positions little by little, and even the unions that have not known how to adapt to modern dynamics have lost their original charm, many still wonder how it is possible that the far right has grown in the world, to the point of becoming the new "big wave" in Europe in countries like Italy, France or Germany? Although complex to understand at the beginning, the explanation is not so difficult, the left wing originally "globalist" was a great driver of migration and population mobility, many moved to the city and progressed, and made multiculturalism expand and made the middle classes in Europe and the US grew, but as the migrant flow continued, little by little these rising middle classes began to feel threatened, new cultures began to arrive wholesale, labor became cheaper at the time that jobs began to go to other countries as part of international trade agreements in view of the inability of unions to see beyond their borders, and fear and panic caused many of these middle classes to turn back to nationalism in search of protection , hence new forms of extreme right wing emerged, beyond the moderate right that had somehow found a balance with the also moderate left wing.

Now the extreme right wing defends the middle classes against the "threat" of migration, thus they have come to power in the US, Donald Trump, in Italy, "The League", while in France, Austria, Germany, Hungary, Poland, Greece and Spain begin to take force the far right wing, behind have been the years in which it was easy to identify the "far right", today even follow the canons of fashion and call themselves "libertarian" or "alt right", the excesses of the left wing have given rise to them, although now at times these extremists tend to converge in their disdain for democracy and in their fanaticism for nationalism, as in Greece, where we see Syriza in coalition with Golden Dawn, or in France , where the National Front and France Untamed find common place after the so-called "yellow vests", the ends repudiate the center, since it can coexist in some way with the right or left wing, therefore, these moderate positions begin to create cracks against their most extreme positions and the breakthrough arises, the left can hardly find its moment today, so they have lost their internationalist nature and have acquired a retrograde nationalist mood, in Europe, through "Euroscepticism" ", Which allows Marine Le Pen to be on the side of Jean Luc Mélenchon, or Alexis Tsipras to seek a coalition with Golden Dawn.

The "far right chic" no longer only seeks to exacerbate nationalism and combat migration, now also embraces political incorrectness, conspiracy theories, gamer culture, sexual diversity and even the discourse of the battle between the working classes against the elites, the reaction against modernity and globalization begins to become a nebula that allows the extreme right and the extreme left to almost disappear, as could happen in Mexico with Morena, where much of the most conservative fraction of the PAN emigrated to Morena (in addition to the fact that the far right PES made a coalition with the latter), where a conservative right and left have converged on nationalism, and where there is not only the risk of an internal rupture and a strong struggle of powers that paralyze the country, there is also the risk of a violent reaction against migration policies already announced by the new government, which seeks to accept migration from Central America, in addition to an increase in the minimum wage, measures that poorly carried out could cause havoc in the national labor market, on the one hand, threatening the national workforce, and another eliminating sources of employment, the perfect recipe for an extreme right-wing nationalist setback, as happened in the US during the presidency of Obama, which led to the triumph of Donald Trump.
