RE: Pauline Hanson and Pauline Hanson's One Nation (PHON) represent the worst elements in Australian Society.
How did Trump become president?
Why is Brexit happening?
How has one nation gained seats?
The right has risen because the left has forced them to.
The more you push someone the harder they will push back.
Not everyone has the same views and they have been left behind and are now starting to catch up
Yes this is true but it is more than that, the ALP/LNP-IPA really are different brands with the same flavor, aided and abetted by corrupt Murdoch-based media manipulating the "great unwashed" to serve the interests of the global Fourth Reich/Cabal. Those on both sides are being manipulated. Divide and conquer, as always with them.
@hooplevonwinkle makes a good point. The rise of divisive far-right politics can largely be put down to the decline in economic prospects for middle and working class people in developed nations. Hillbilly Elegy: A Memoir of a Family and Culture in Crisis is a great read re: this phenomena in the the US.

ALP/LNP-IPA, different brand, same flavor, ALP is definitely Neoliberal lite and parties like PHON are extreme to say the least...
