Why is the far right so successful? I mean, Drumpf is going to lose, but how the fuck did he even get so far?
When will the far left have its opportunity?

their ideas are simplistic and spooky enough to be compressed into bite-sized memes. also spooks and misdirected anger
Because the left's arguments take too long to explain and are usually wrapped up in esoteric language. Your average dude doesn't have time for that. The right plays on fears which can be summed up in nice little spundbites and memes.

Dude, you wish. The left doesn't have any arguments.
not bait
Not an argument.
That's literally why the left is losing and it appears as the right winning
...
A huge media conspiracy that makes pro-war pro-Capital lap dogs of the bourgeoisie supporting far right candidates feel like they are literally leftists literally eviscerating literally Hitler by calling Trump by the name his family went by 500 years ago. Doing so makes candidates that are 2 degrees left of center too radical to ever be elected.
He got so far by accidentally falling into the widening vacuum between the ossified bourgeois party system and the material reality experienced by the populous.
His only consistent theme is an emotional anger toward and rejection of the status quo, the absence of any content beyond that is actually helping politically naive and angry voters mold him onto their own imagined ideal.
He's not so much consciously succeeding as he is fulfilling a need.
how successful are they really?
I mean the real far right? I mean some sites and minor parties in Europe, it might be a phase.
Every worker is a nationaI socialist, they just don't know it yet. It can put their thoughts into words.
simple
it really is very simple
leftists are smug self centered loudmouths
their main objective is to be right, not to achieve things
they're too self satisfied with being validated with whatever they say and put the blame on everyone else not being as much of a smartass as they are
every fucking one of them feels like the one true revolutionary the working class has waited for and needs to be educated by
part of this is talking shit about the only communists that have ever gotten shit done and would still be if the environment in leftism wasn't so fucking cancerous with individualist dipshits as i just described
workers don't need to first learn theory, revolutionaries need to proof themself as acting on their class interest by concretely adressing issues instead of jerking off on how good their theory is
thats how you raise class conciousness, by action and results and explaining what socialism is about in each and every struggle people encounter and putting it into proper class context instead of lecturing about some high ideals out of the fucking nowhere
Because you're faggots.
the right on the other hand is successfull as they're using anti-establishment rhetoric while having the full support of the capitalist system their defending behind it
behind every successfull right wing movement is capital
It isn't.
Neoliberalism is successful, not fascism
...
...
Shit meme
The far right has enjoyed a modest bump in popularity but demographically the vast majority of people are left leaning. If the US wasn't dumping billions of dollars into propping up fascist governments in their allies and undermining leftist organizations everywhere the political landscape would look very different.
Oh, really?
I didn't know the vast majority of people hated capitalism, liberalism and the dumb spooks of conservatism.
this, but reformatted to something that a normal human being can parse.
