This is a specious or at best meaningless argument. What is "far-right ideology"? Your argument below makes it clear that this is a subjective term. Everyone to the "right" of Mao is considered to by far-right by mainstream media today.

Most likely what we're seeing is just a concentration effect. As "far-right" types are banned by big tech sites, they are forced to move to free speech sites. This collects a bunch of deplorables under the same banner that wouldn't normally be in agreement except they aren't Maoists. It also makes the more extreme ideologues appear more numerous (in those communities) than they actually are. If you're unironically a national socialist in 2022 then I'm not in alignment with you on most issues. I don't pretend to know the numbers, but I guess a lot of people here are like me and don't care what lefties think. We think "guilt by association" is bullshit. Doesn't mean we consider ourselves party to YOUR ideology either, even if we tolerate or participate in dialogue with you.
