Funny how many of these far-right/authoritarian/fascist parties/groups (caucus?) have the word 'freedom' in their name.

Yea, it's kind of like when used car salesmen have 'honest' in their name. It is useful for disarming gullible people of their wits.

Or that old gem those arguing on bad faith like to trot out about how Nazis had socialist in their party name so therefore were socialists.

But then I'm an Aussie, our National party sell us out to foreign interests, our Liberal party are social and economic conservatives, and our Labor party is captured by huge fossil fuel donors. Heck even our Greens are into neo-liberal economics half the time.
