There's a word for that: shibboleth. It's a word or term whose very usage signals that the user belongs to a certain group. "Far right" is a leftist shibboleth because it's almost exclusively leftists who use it.

Leftist speech consists almost entirely of shibboleths because it makes fellow cultists easy to identify. All cults mark their members in some way, whether it be brands, clothing, or speech.

Listening to the James Lindsey podcast is like putting on a permanent pair of They Live glasses. You can't unsee it anymore.

The whole article reads as an opinion piece, but nowhere does NBC label the article as opinion.

Patriot Mobile markets itself as “America’s only Christian conservative wireless provider.” Now the Trump-aligned company is on a mission to win control of Texas school boards.

You mean the scawwy Far-Right Christians aren’t letting you teach sexual grooming to kids?

They are a company like any other. I’m sure NBC isn’t reporting on the views of T-Mobile, Verizon, AT&T, etc

Agree but they won’t. I mean it’s only responding to the demand for non left wing companies

The whole leftist nation loves to gang up on that area of DFW it seems like. Yesterday I see something about Arabic flags to Carroll ISD and now it's the neighboring district. They really just come off as jealous myself, the libs in the Dallas shithole complaining about their shitholes and the wypipo that live there have better so must fight them. I used to live in that area years ago too, it's not even that white, there's a load of imported Indians and a mix of hispanics. Hell, I know a black guy I still work with that lives around there. He's a typical hypocrite complaining about politicians because the news told him to while also wanting his neighborhood to stay nice and not go to shit.

I expect Patriot Mobile to end up a grift though. Just seems to always be when a company markets themselves that way.

What else would you expect from BRCC though? It's founded by two literal CIA glowniggers.

Why is it a take over when the right does it, but it's welcome, and the way it should be when the left does it?

They're pretty careful with their wording, so they must know they're doing it.

I see you. I see you doing it. You're not fooling anyone.

People who use the word "Far" to identify political beliefs are ignorant fools unworthy of any attention.

Eh, I wouldn't say that. Politicians and urnalists use "far," and there is still some importance to paying attention to what narrative they're pushing.

Far-Right is now a thought-terminating cliche. You might as well say "How a Poopy-buttface Christian cellphone company took over four Texas school boards."

They call a company like that “far right” but demand that they not be called “liberal” or “far-left”.
