MODERATORS
Would seem to be, and probably should be if self preservation enters the mind of the person in question, but ideologies, even those that would seem to have a pretty narrow appeal can (at least at a surface level) make themselves appealing to people of all sorts.
A current example of this would be Alice Weidel, AfD. A lesbian in a German facist party who spends most of her time (allegedly) in Switzerland at her partners place.
Ernst Rohm (an out gay man) was in the previous iteration right up until he was no longer useful to the state/party apparatus.
Hell, Mussolini was originally a Communist who, I guess, decided he was tired of working on making a better world and decided to settle for immediately making a worse one because at least he'd be in charge of part of it.
