For those who don't find "far-right" to be an applicable descriptor with what is known currently, I acknowledge that the meme creator could have been more precise with their word choice. However, I feel the difference is academic:

We can replace “far right” with the easily verified “not leftist” without changing the meme whatsoever, primarily because the meme is about Nancy Mace and her mercurial, disingenuous opinion, not (directly) about the shooter.

Edit - I modified it, though I still find it to be a distinction without a difference - alt version for those who prefer (whoops missed one first time)

Again, then why did they call themselves Jews until at least 70AD? I guarantee that every single apostle called themselves a Jew until they died. I think your brain isn't wanting to hear this and blocking what I'm saying. It doesn't change your religion other than making it more Jewish, why would that be bad?

Yes, 2000 years ago the ethnic Jews that were Christians considered themselves to be Jews. That ceased to be the case within a few years as Paul’s ideas are adopted and the people joining aren’t Jewish and do not follow Jewish laws and traditions.

It’s a new faith because they frame it as such. If you were Christian and called yourself a Jewish person you would get weird looks.

It was a sect of Judaism at one point but that was thousands of years ago.

70 years is a few generations. Just saying. I'm not saying Christians are Jewish now, the Catholics changed all of that. I'm saying it was originally a Jewish sect. I think you're agreeing anyway, have a great day.

originally yes they were but by the time Paul’s writing becomes cannon it no longer is. That’s the 80s?
