I watched sharpe in its entirety last year over a weeks span and it made me shift rightward
Thinking of how proud everyone was to call themselves an englishman, irishman, frenchman etc. and to so proudly fight for their king and country
Now anyone who rocks up on a boat from a shithole can call themselves that

I mean to be fair by the end Sharpe is pretty disillusioned with war and borders and very explicitly and repeatedly says the only difference between him and the french is where they were born

True, and the fact that almost all 'gentlemen' in the story bought their commissions and were massive retards

I can see it making you more patriotic, but right wing? Sharpe and Harper both marry foreigners, French and Spanish respectively.
Sharpe even settles down in France, and his son fights in the French army.

Funnily enough I got the opposite feeling.
Sharpe as a series constantly shows shifting alliances and moralities and the character himself is a pragmatic opportunist who is happy to kill anyone who gets in his way.

Being right wing is not congruent with being xenophobic.
And colonizing spanish and french pussy is the total opposite of being left wing.

They say you can't be killed, Sergeant Janny. It is known. 'Come with me, my lads, for I cannot die. I'm going to post for ever, for they tried to ban me once but they did... not... do it.' I could almost believe it. Except in the case of someone you tried to ban, Sergeant Janny. And did... not... do it. I wonder who that might be, Sergeant. You're a dead man, Janny.

The NCOs were stealing all the wages.
Also while a trial may have just been a formality, gleefully shooting a deserter on the spot just wasn't cricket. Especially when it's clear it wasn't the first time and that they made a sport out of it.

Ikr, media literacy in a dire state these days. Sharpe would definitely be in favour of open borders, should be pretty obvious.
