Sometimes the absence of evidence is evidence. They're not calling for the removal of certain groups from society. They don't - as Trump did - call for the removal of entire groups of people from the country.
That's what makes all the difference to me. Attacking people vs attacking political or economical models. Apart from the fact that the extreme right isn't fringe anymore. Not in Europe, as Poland and Hungary show, not in the USA, as the Trump victory shows.
