This. And the point is not so much to peel off his existing fans and voters, but to put off potential new ones. Sanitizing and mainstreaming his toxic shit makes it to easy for him to be a protest vote or a "ah well fukkit everyone else is shite so let's give him a go" vote
All the supposedly progressive people saying 'Nigel Farage's racism doesn't matter. His fans love it'.
It matters whether the leader of the party leading all the opinion polls is an outright racist. It matters if he called black people 'wogs' and said 'gas them' to Jews. Not everything is a game
