    “Would we see the same if the activists were far-right?”

    No, because people don’t often laugh or support outright, easily proveable falsehoods. Besides, we know damn well the banner wouldn’t be about the economy but about some other, probably racist, thing.

    They really don’t get it.

      I thought the exact same. If right wing people gave shit to tony Blair for war crimes or whatever, yeah we’d see the same response. But that’s not what far-right activists would do, is it? We all know what their banner would say.
