The rise of Far-Right parties in Europe has been well documented, you can do a search on Google Scholar and find plenty of Journal articles in Sociology and Political Science on it. I suggest reading this paper which discusses the multicultural ideal against that of the monoethnic-cultural State ideal. You need to register to read it (free).

I don't need to read it, living at ground zero and all. And believe me, an Australian doesn't need to educate me on rightwingers in Europe or who and what encourages them.

I'm assuming that by identifying yourself as Catholic_Lady your faith is very important to you. Both Evangelicals and Catholics share many of the same issues that are important to them. If Hillary is elected she gets to appoint judges to the Supreme Court. What do you think would become of the issues that are so important to you if she's elected? Hope you reconsider about not voting for a presidential candidate.

My bold. 

I'm not sure where you came to that conclusion. Sorry if that was the impression I gave. It was not intended.

Just joking with you on that one, the boldened part.

But the rest is something I hope you take into consideration.

OK sure, I just thought you might be interested. For anyone else reading, the far-right parties plummeted following WWII but have been steadily increasing in popularity since the mid-late 70's (IIRC) in Western Europe.

Actually it's been the late 80ies with the fall of the Iron Curtain being the trigger. The first instance of widespread Xenophobia, directed at Eastern Europeans at that time. In the case of Germany, even at citizens of the former GDR. That's what gave rise to the so called Republicans there. Long gone by now, but replaced by even more despicable forces. The territory of the former GDR, ironically, is now one of the biggest hunting grounds to recruit new rightwing extremists. Foremost Saxony.

Or even more absurdly like expecting Trump to do some jail time for low fiving women in the crotch.
