Contrary to the impression you might get from reading my blog or following me on social media, I’m not actually that hardcore right-wing – except perhaps as a result of the linguistic devaluation, where, as a conscious political tactic, terms like “far-right”, “hard right”, “ultraconservative” or “white supremacist” have been stripped of any objective meaning so as to be used as a cudgel against anyone the left doesn’t like and wants to delegitimise.
