That woman (Alice Weidel) is a rollercoaster of contradictions:
- She is one of the leaders of the far-right and nationalist party AfD, but lives in Switzerland herself.
- She lives with her girlfriend but refuses to call herself queer and voted against gay marriage
- her girlfriend voted pro gay marriage in Switzerland
- Said girlfriend is a Swiss immigrant, originating from Sri Lanka, but Weidel promotes the typical anti-immigrant politics you'd expected from a right wing nut job
Weird coincidence. Finland has a similar case. Gay man with black immigrant boyfriend in the alt-right party. I know the party can use him as a shield for racism accusations, but I don't quite understand what's in it for him (outside of a well paying office job)
Such people are just in for the money and have absolutely no qualm of selling out their specific minority. And they always make the mistake of thinking, that they are special and that they will be loved by the bigots they try to placate. But history has shown that such people will always be the first to be purged when the party gets into power if they haven't been thrown out way before that.
In the US we can currently also see such examples with the MAGA crowd where non white figures in the movement find out the hard way, that the crowd doesn't like them and is already shunning them because of their name, skin color or immigration background.
