None of these positions are right or far right or extreme right or right of the center or right-of-Venus or right-of-Mars.

but these positions allow extreme righteous and racist policies to flourish.

1. (a) Earlier, you mentioned that you were confused.  I agreed with you and pointed out that the confusion is caused by oversimplistic, inaccurate and incomplete division of the political spectrum into the Left and The Right.  A more accurate division is - (a) Libertarian, Liberal, Conservative, Authoritarian, Centrist.

(b) The prior post erroneoulsy argued that the "Libertarians are right or right-of-the-center or far-right" or whatever the label you want to use.  
I pointed out that the Libertarians and the liberals or the Left share the following positions - legalization of drugs, prostitution, homosexual marriage, or open borders and more immigraton. These are not right wing positions by any stretch of imagination.  

2. I apologize, but I didn't follow your point.  

(a) How does advocating the legalization of drugs, prostitution, homosexual marriage, or open borders and more immigraton "allow extreme righteous and racist policies to flourish?"  Can you give several specific examples?

(b)  The same reasoning will say that "The Left allows extreme righteous and racist policies to flourish."
