The far-right doesn’t require foreign-born population to function.
True, but far-right movements in the 21st century have generally formed around a core of anti-immigrant sentiment and failed to materialize without a large immigrant population.
the lack of it doesn’t change the mechanisms that give rise and prominence of the far-right
True, but it seems that without a sufficiently low-hanging fruit the modern far right can’t gain enough steam to then go after less vulnerable segments of society, such as LGBT people or Jews. This is as opposed to early 20th century fascism, because then these groups were vulnerable enough to be the core targets of a fascist movement. Either way it’s a fact that foreign born population (the more foreign the better) and the strength of the far right are highly correlated.
