The "far" right is allowed to harness popular sentiment. Their message is allowed to be broadcast because capitalists are the ones spreading it, because it doesn't harm them. The right-wing that is less reactionary isn't allowed and doesn't want to harness popular sentiment, because they'd have to actually act on it and it would show their true face and contradict their whole purpose as 'controlled' opposition.
Exactly, I kinda glossed over that with the "disfigured and evil collective formed in the loins of hierarchical oppression" bit. The right's appeal to the collective is an appeal to the status quo and the mythos of the active superstructure. It's not one that seeks to overturn that superstructure and modify the base relations to the means of production.
