What’s actually happening inside the U.S. Republican Party today — and why are so many people asking whether it’s shifting toward a new far-right vision? And if you don’t follow American politics closely, how can you make sense of the headlines, the voices, and the sudden rise of certain movements? In this discussion, BO — a sought-after speaker at consulates and universities across Asia and the U.S. — will guide participants through the landscape in a clear, accessible, and intellectually honest way. He’ll start by breaking down the basics: the Republican Party as one of America’s two major political groups, traditionally focused on limited government, lower taxes, and conservative social values; and the “far right,” meaning more extreme positions on nationalism, immigration, culture, and government authority.
From there, you’ll explore the recent shifts and debates within the party — the loud, populist voices that seem to pull it toward a harder ideological line, as well as the moderate and traditional conservatives pushing back. You’ll look at which movements genuinely represent a far-right turn and which are more about media narrative, internal conflict, or strategy. Whether you’re deeply familiar with U.S. politics or barely know the difference between Republicans and Democrats, this conversation will give you a smart,balanced, and global perspective on what the party is becoming — and why it matters far beyond America.
美国共和党现在到底发生了什么事?为什么这么多人开始问,它是不是正往一种“更右、更民族主义”的方向走?如果你平时不怎么关注美国政治,该怎么理解那些新闻标题、各种声音,还有最近突然冒出来的那些政治运动?在这场讨论里,BO 会带着大家从头梳理,用一种清晰、好懂、也保持智识诚实的方式讲透这个话题。活动会从基础开始:共和党是美国两大政党之一,传统上主张小政府、低税收和保守的社会价值观;“far right”则指在民族主义、移民、文化和政府权力等议题上更激进的立场。
接下来,你会一起看看共和党内部这些年的变化和争论:那些声音很大、很民粹的派别,似乎正把党往更硬、更激进的方向拉;而另一些温和派、传统保守派又在试图把方向盘拽回来。讨论中你会了解哪些运动真的代表“极右化”,哪些更多是媒体叙事、党内斗争,或只是政治策略。
无论你是对美国政治很熟,还是只知道 Republicans 和 Democrats 是两党,这次对话都会给你一个更聪明、更平衡、也更全球视角的理解:共和党正在变成什么样子——以及为什么这件事的影响远远不只是在美国发生。
