Is "radicalisation pathway" ... a reality of 2024 and beyond ? :::: Witness the Trumpian takeover of the Republican party :::: - And things have changed in Hungary, Italy and UK too

They say ... Elon Musk’s outspoken criticism of the British government has surprised many. 

Elon Musk has called the prime minister “two-tier Keir” in reference to the conspiracy theory that police are treating white far-right “protesters” more harshly than minority groups.

Downing Street would not engage again with the billionaire owner of X, having previously said his comments about a potential civil war in the UK had “no justification”. Since that criticism, Musk has been repeatedly targeting Keir Starmer on his social media platform.

However, 'The Guardian', London's prestigious newspaper, understands Labour MPs have been privately warned "not to engage in debate" on Twitter about the far-right violence and to instead amplify calls for unity. 

Biden : Humbled and Ousted Democrat !!

Elsewhere other developments are happening ... in Hungary, the ruling Fidesz party metamorphosed from centre right to proto-fascist. 

In Italy, the so-called centre right is a junior partner in a government led by the far right. Germany’s Christian Democrats have shifted right, while the far right in the country surges. Thus take the comment from 'The Guardian' article with a pinch of salt or little more seriously.  

"It was once known as the “centre right”, and this was the year it definitively perished. It never had a coherent political philosophy, but it tended to blend deference to the perceived needs of large business interests.... Above all else, it supposedly offered a cordon sanitaire, preventing anything further to the right from acquiring political legitimacy.

But the article now says, -- "That hasn’t quite worked to plan. 

Nigel Farage now claims his populist-right Reform party has a higher membership than the Tories". 

Of course much have changed in the United Kingdom too.  

Nearly two decades ago, then Tory leader, David Cameron, dismissed Farage’s Ukip as “fruitcakes and loonies and closet racists mostly”; but today, Cameron’s party has ceded ideological ground to its challengers and the current Conservative leader, Kemi Badenoch, is fighting Reform on Farage’s terrain. 

The Guardian' article also says:  

"Brexit was a watershed moment that saw the party adopt a populist demagoguery that breached the walls of any remaining cordon sanitaire. 

Theresa May lobbed grenades at it with her notorious 2016 “citizens of nowhere” speech. Boris Johnson found himself applauded by far-right extremists. After her benighted premiership tanked, Truss joined the US far-right speaker circuit, savaging the “deep state” alongside the likes of Steve Bannon.

But this isn’t a Britain-specific phenomenon. Witness the Trumpian takeover of the Republican party. It was made possible by the party’s establishment endorsing conspiracism and Islamophobia.
