Severin Tatarczyk wrote that BMW wanted to send a political message with the withdrawal of the leasing offer for the President of the State Parliament in Saxony-Anhalt. He considered this a mistake: it was about the office and not about the AfD, and companies should remain politically neutral in such matters instead of engaging in activist symbolic politics. In his view, such actions primarily strengthened people in certain circles while additionally supporting the AfD in other milieus. Tatarczyk also questioned how BMW would have acted if a member of the Left had held the office. #Politik #Unternehmen #Neutralität (translated)
