I like to think about it like when slave traders pitted Hutu and Tutsi people against each other. Well I'm not sure if it was those two groups, I know one was Hutu for sure but colonialists pitted them against each other by convincing one group that they were stronger than the other. This was further emboldened by media hype or what they had of it back then.
Both groups ended up going to war or discriminated against one another because one group was seen as strong and more healthy. Colonialists did this to create competition much like how colonialists erased tribe lines to let them kill each other.
I wish I could remember but there was an infamous quote by someone that said all you had to do was erase the lines, let them kill each other and the colonialists don't have to do any heavy lifting.
I'm willing to bet that those two face m are around racists who convince them that they are not like "those people." I'm sure they are likely around people who manage to convince them of similar so then they continually vote against their own interests.
