Extremists will try to increase their profile anyway they can. "Trolling" a politician by getting a picture taken with them and letting a social media storm brew is an easy way to do it.

signed a Nazi flag a while back. Nobody serious accused Trudeau of being a Nazi sympathizer or having the support of Nazis because it was obviously a stunt. Perhaps the same courtesy should be extended to Pierre Poilievre if we want to be fair.
