For those who don’t find “far-right” to be an applicable descriptor with what is known currently, I acknowledge that the meme creator could have been more precise with their word choice. However, I feel the difference is academic:

We can replace “far right” with the easily verified “not leftist” without changing the meme whatsoever, primarily because the meme is about Nancy Mace and her mercurial, disingenuous opinion, not (directly) about the shooter.

Edit - I modified it, though I still find it to be a distinction without a difference - alt version for those who prefer (whoops missed one first time)

    I never really thought about it but unlike Catholics who have the pope. Christians don’t have a lead authority. So yeah there is arguably an authority to say what is and is not Catholic but not an authority to say what is or isn’t Christianity

      Other groups have authorities as well but there is no central authority to all. You can be expelled from a denomination but not from Christianity itself.
