    True. When Bernd Lucke left the party in 2015 the reasons he stated for doing so were the islamophobic and racist ideology..

    That was only two years after the party was founded. I believe him having different intentions for the party, but their members must’ve always been full of far-right extremists.

      And Luckes new found irrelevant party is also not exactly hesitant on these issues. Their are also fiercly against abortion, LGBT rights, islamophobic and against migration, all with strong neoliberalism.

      So it is like a red-pill incel telling someone he is going too far with sexism.
