    Eh, you’re right, it’s sarcastic in the sense of telling them act to against their self-interest.

    However, I don’t think @hendrik is trying to distract from the issue of far-right politics.

    In addition, (actual!) anti-corruption legislation has a massive potential to hurt right-wingers, because their politics is oriented toward defending/opposing particular groups of people (blind loyalty) rather than defending/opposing values (morality).
