I met Prime Minister of Economics and Innovation of Lithuania, Aušrinė Armonaitė, back in the days she was just a politician. She tries to be very tactical and friendly person (as most politicians do). Nevertheless, she is one of the most hated politicians right now, probably.
What happened that made her hated?
She is hated mostly by the traditionalists. She proposes decriminalisation (NB: not legalisation) of soft drugs and same-sex partnerships for LGBT. Some have become angry as much that I know people who put all the blame from their life into her party.
I would be happy if I could describe the detailed info but I don't want to break Rule 2 of this community and put Lemmy on fire.
Ha, no problem, thanks for the explanation! Makes sense!
