I think the slide into anti-science MAHA wellness bullshit and Christian Nationalism is a direct causal line from advanced societies accepting obvious made-up wank like homeopathy, astrology or crystals or the idea that god or Jesus wants you to do/not do something is just harmless alternative Woo.

Now’s a good time to remind you Farage attended a Private Dinner at The Carlton club where he & guests laughed at Hitler jokes & sung ‘we’re all racist now’👇🏼👇🏼
Comic Dominic Frisby sang: “we should have let the Nazis win”
Claims he’s not a racist but loves Nazi jokes & enjoys singing he’s a racist😉

I mean, this should really go without saying but it's not up to third party observers to decide how the victims of racist abuse should feel about it.
You'll be amazed to discover that a bunch of anonymous people that Nigel Farage says definitely do exist, have confirmed that he didn't say any of the things that lots of other people say on the record that he absolutely did

Seems to me Nigel Farage's vicious racism at school was just as highly calculated as the dog-whistling he & Reform do now on a daily basis.
It was a grotesque form of "showing off" designed to impress certain other boys. A juvenile far-right "popularist" strategy, you could say.

Left: Shelagh Fogarty dismisses Farage's antisemitism as "idiocy from when he was 12, 13, 14 at school"
Right: Peter Ettedgui, victim of Farage's antisemitism, "Knowing that I was Jewish, he said Hitler was right and gas them, followed by a hissing, imitating the sound of escaping gas"

You must admit that the Tories are better off with this bunch of reprobates slithering off to Reform.
The crazy thing is, the talent pool at Reform is so thin, it also boosts them. It's rather like mixing dog mess of two different grades. It's still dog mess. But on average...
