I hate triangulators I hate triangulators I hate triangulators.
danish politics.
Socialdemokratiet (The socialdemocratic party) stole a bunch of voters from Dansk Folkeparti (Danish peoples party and by Danish we mean wink wink) by being as racist as them.
The point of doing that was to prevent dansk Folkeparti from getting into government, which would be bad because they had racist politics.
Insert meme where Spongebob and Patrick, labeled as SOCIALDEMOKRATER, stand in the middle of a burning city exclaiming "we did it Patrick, we stopped the racists from getting into government!" :::
Wow how did all these bigots get into government? Oh well no time to think about that, we have to do austerity otherwise the right-wing will get elected and they might do austerity!
Boy I sure am glad to be a succdem in government, because I am ideologically socialdemocratic then that logically means my policies are as well. Anyway gotta cut funding to schools and give americans some military bases
And in the process the succdems forgot why the Danish People's Party was bad in the first place and became just as racist as them. There's no sign any more of "if they get in they will do bad stuff", it's just "they're taking our phoney baloney jobs and we want them back"
Yeah and the weird thing is everyone who was against it said that that is exactly would happen and even as it was happening they were told they were hyperbolic/alarmist by the socialdemocrats.
Now it seems like no one even remembers it happened at all. Real "we've always been at war with Oceania" type shit.
Edit: and they'd probably be down with making a coalition government with them

You know what they say: The only way to fight a bad guy with a racism, is a good guy with a racism.
