Being right means being capitalistic or conservative. Less welfare, less public projects, more business oriented, more keeping the status quo.
Being racist is not a quality of being right-leaning. Surely you’re confusing the political spectrum with what kind of people tend to lean towards what. Calling someone racist for being right-leaning, or calling someone far-right for being racist is an association fallacy.
Otherwise you wouldn’t be able to be racist and socialist at the same time.
We weren’t discussing a left wing party here, it’s a right wing party that you said wasn’t far-right because of their openly stated racism. I could have been clearer in my response, but I’m saying that by being openly racist (and by maintaining relationships with members who are openly racist), this right wing party is far-right.
You are correct though about the actual distinction between leftism and rightism being support for capitalism, thank you for clarifying that.

It’s not their racism, that’s just the fart on top of the shit cake. It’s their right wing populism.
