    I probably still would prefer to vote for the DKP whenever possible, but for those people who just can’t break through the indoctrination that doesn’t let them bring themselves to vote for a communist party it may be a good alternative. Certainly if she pulls away a chunk of the populist base of the AfD that will be beneficial because the current state of affairs in Germany with the only populist option being a far right xenophobic party with Nazi sympathies is very very bad. People are desperate for an alternative to the liberal establishment and when the left doesn’t provide one the neo-fascist right takes full advantage of that.
