    The usual thing it means to people who follow politics. I’m not gonna explain basic vocabulary to you.

      Which is what? Monarchist? Liberal? Fascist? Those three things are described as right-wing sometimes but are all contradictory.

    Far right isn’t the same as right wing. Right wing could be a liberal. Far right is where you start sorting people by their “worth” and such.

      Far right implies further to the right? How is liberalism which relies on a basic notion of individualism in the same category as ethnonationalism which relies on a basic notion of collectivism?

        Far right doesn’t mean more “liberalism”, it means to the right of liberalism. right wing and left wing describe a spectrum within liberalism. Far right and far left are when you step outside the boundaries of liberalism. Whether that takes the form of collectivism or individualism isn’t really material to whether it’s outside the liberal spectrum.
