MODERATORS
Only a rightoid nutjob could look at the colossal shitshow that is brexit and be like "See that? That's what I want."
A spokesman from the extreme right party AfD once got cited with the words: "Je schlechter es Deutschland geht, desto besser für die AfD." (The worse Germany is doing, the better it is for the AfD.) I think this highlights the underlying reasons why the AfD wants Germany to leave EU.
In dire times many people look for authoritarian leaders
Same reason Trump wants the US economy to crash.
I mean... she is also a lesbian woman who raises two sons with a woman from Sri Lanka, yet she is like "A far-right, racist party that favors 'traditional families' and has many members with questionable views on women and LGBTQ is where I feel at home."
I don't question her motivations anymore, I just assume they are based on hate and opportunism.
You forgot the living in Switzerland part on the list of obvious contradictions.
No need to question, those are the motivations of any and all conservatives. Anything else is just toxic fluff..
That’s the same people who saw a disastrous and criminal four years of Trump and are going, “We need to go back to that!”
Or somebody paid by the Russian government
