"Political" views[edit]

This article says:

After his dismissal from The Scorpions, Kottak came out publicly about his politically conservative views.

Now, the article "Conservatism in the United States" assures us that "conservatism is based on a belief in limited government, individualism, traditionalism, republicanism, and limited federal governmental power in relation to U.S. states." How does that square with Kottak's views? They are wholly anti-immigrant and anti-Black. The term "politically conservative" does not apply here. A far more fitting term would be "racist". We strive for accuracy here on WP and I would be interested in knowing whether the article is using a euphemism for racism just here (and bear in mind that we don't use euphemisms here). What do you think? Kelisi (talk) 21:41, 9 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
