Different individuals assign different importance to certain political issues. I'm an atheistic, childless single guy between the age of 20 and 40 - neither religious freedom nor abortion rights have a tangible impact on my life or my future.
A botched response to climate change (whether it is too harsh a reaction, leading to deindustrialization and a loss of wealth, or a too tepid reaction leading to unchecked climate change), housing prices and rents getting out of hand, disadvantageous immigration and integration policies, a collapse of the pension system or another financial crisis - those are examples of issues with the potential to affect my life in a tangible way. And on those issues of high personal salience, I overwhelmingly prefer the solutions offered by the so-called "right-wing populists" over the solutions offered by any left-of-center parties.
+1, sums it up well and pretty much mirrors my personal situation and view
