The fact that this came from the right does make it even more surreal. I think you are probably right though, and the right is just becoming more refined in their arguments now. I find as a rule, the right has no problems identifying legitimate problems within the liberal system. It’s their solutions to these problems that tend to be completely bonkers.
I think it is the fascism stage where they need to oppose the liberal establishment at least vocally in order to appear as alternative, and in order to do so they steal the talking points from the communists. Easier in Poland since there is no communist voice to be hear in public spaces.

Definitely, and having communists muzzled very much helps the fascists gain ground as liberalism unravels.
