I prefer to use the term "the contrarian left" as it seem to choose to defend groups based on how horrible they are.

I copied my post from the international subboard, because I think the Swedish Greens are a very good example of this phenomen. They select a member of a minority, who if he had been ethnic Swedish would have belong on the extreme right (to the right of SD), and they make him minister.

Let's hope that the Swedish Green Party doesn't get 4% the next election.
