Angry old white men were Harper's base and he fed them a rich diet of fearmongering to pique their insecurities, paranoia and bigotry.<br /><br />We may be embarking on an era in which fact and critical thought lose much of their currency as they're displaced by myth and belief-based ideology. These trends, so prevalent in today's radical right populism, can render liberal democracy heretical.

So let's join many leading US media organizations, stop normalizing this euphemism and <a href="http://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2016/12/2/13818400/alt-right-racist-style" rel="nofollow">call these people out for what they are</a>.<br /><br />As for the Cons morphing into white supremacists, how soon we forget Harper's role in creating the Northern Foundation and Tony Clement's support for South African apartheid.
