It is not a serious sign of a growing far right, it's a confirmation that the far right is becoming more emboldened.
It's a sign that countries around the world are susceptible to foreign disinformation and unrest campaigns. Brexit was the first shot. trump getting elected is an ongoing attack on American hegemony. AFD in Germany is an attack against an anti-Russian government, the LePenn shit in France is a reaction to them being anti-Russian...
It's not that the far right is growing, it's that the 'traditional west' has been under rampant attack from historical adversaries, and the companies inside the west are letting them attack us collectively, because they make money off of it.
Shut down the bot farms like Ukraine has done, and watch these movements start to wither on the vine.
Oh darn, we will have to explodify all the data centers. :(
Honestly I'm willing to go more analog in life to get rid of this online unrest bullshit.
instead of shutting down bot farms, entire countries, Russia, China, Saudi A, Israel, etc should be disconnected from the global internet. It has very little economic benefit to have them online and a huge political downside of easy manipulation. It is much easier to shut down and prosecute bot farms when they are hosted on Western soil. Then we just have to actually prosecute them, even if they are trillion dollar companies like Twitter.
I think we should do both frankly. A hostile entity can rent space at a data center anywhere. Our businesses in the west have shown time and time again they will side with hostile foreign actors for money. So, we need to both cut them off of our internet, and shut down these botfarms.
Stupid people are shutting up less. Birds of a feather squawking together.
