In Germany, a poll shows that 28% of gays would vote for the AfD: a controversial choice

The far-right Alternative for Germany party could gain support from gays.

A recent poll has revealed that 28% of the LGBTQIA community could seriously consider voting for the party, which is seen by many as post-Nazi and anti-LGBTQIA.

This result has raised many questions and sparked a heated debate within the German and international LGBTQIA community.

The AfD has extreme positions on many issues such as immigration, European integration and especially towards the LGBTQIA community.

What are the reasons that could lead 28% of the LGBTQIA community to vote for their tormentors? There are several factors, such as the fear of a severe economic crisis hitting Germany or the demand for more security, which would overshadow the defence of their civil rights.

The survey highlights the complexity of identities and political priorities within the German LGBTQIA community, which is not monolithic, and at the same time confirms that some of its members vote right-wing and far-right.

Ultimately, this phenomenon reminds us that people do not vote solely on the basis of their gender identity or sexual orientation, but take into account a variety of factors that lead them to vote for their tormentors.
