I wonder if she could articulate the so-called "far right"'s views in ways that they'd find recognizable.

Of course not. If she could, then she wouldn't use that label for all of those different people.

Also, in my experience "If you meet somebody who disagrees, first of all listen to them, because maybe they’ve got something that you hadn’t thought about" almost always just means "Everyone who disagrees with me should shut up and listen to people who agree with me."

Kind of goes both ways, cuz I did it too-ish.

(Tho I think I considered and rebutted her framework more respectfully than she ever could have, let's say, Musk)

It does often go both ways but I don't think you did it here.

Also, you don't exactly exude that Kumbaya energy. "Shut up and listen to people who agree with me" is closer to your general vibe.

True dat. I flatter myself I could treat an argument with proper respect... Just so rarely do it, ain't nobody wanna read that
