For those who don't find "far-right" to be an applicable descriptor with what is known currently, I acknowledge that the meme creator could have been more precise with their word choice. However, I feel the difference is academic:

We can replace “far right” with the easily verified “not leftist” without changing the meme whatsoever, primarily because the meme is about Nancy Mace and her mercurial, disingenuous opinion, not (directly) about the shooter.

Edit - I modified it, though I still find it to be a distinction without a difference - alt version for those who prefer (whoops missed one first time)

Bring back? Isn’t Utah one of the fuckwit medieval states (I mean the whole country is rotten but still) that still has bloodlust punishment?

And yet, a fascist was still eradicated! Are you trying to tell me murdering murderers doesn't prevent murders?
Who knew!?

Suprisingly enough, Utah tends to be more libertarian in ideology and leans more left/centrist than a typical red state.

Mitt Romney and a large part of the state rejected Trump, and he hasn't ever polled well there.

They've been on the right side of a lot of civil/personal liberties and I wouldn't mind living there.

It's still not as good as a real blue state, but better than most red ones.
