@singlemaltgirl Le Pen has been rebranding the party as a mainstream conservative party for a few years. I mean, it's all bullshit, but she's convinced enough of the electorate.

@LiberalLibrarian in πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ harper's cons have been re-branding as the 'big tent conservative party'. = we'll cater to all the whack jobs out there to get their votes incl. nazis, white supremacists, white wing religious zealots and the like resulting in a party of such openly hostile bigotry, racism, and intolerance as to be almost unrecognizable as the previous cons that were just right of centre focused on economic policy.

this is what nationalism does. i'm so fucking tired of it & scared of it.
