"losing by default" on elmu's "X" is actually totally okay

> If we turn our back on the voting population

I don't see how refusing to patronize 1 nazi is "turning your back on the voting population". Especially when the voting population doesn't like nazis. It's more like embracing the voting population.

But if far right parties are gaining votes - then some voting population is giving votes to them. Or are you saying that far right parties are not Nazis?

If refusing to patronize 1 nazi means the far right gets more voters, we would expect to see that in USA election results over the last year or so. Fortunately, this hypothesis is not borne out in the data. In fact, I'd say your purported correlation is inverted, but I suspect there is a deeper, correlated variable: "doesn't like nazis" -> ( "doesn't vote for nazis", "doesn't patronize nazis" ).
