This only makes sense when I realize that to conservatives, it's an identity. They think it's an identity that Taylor Swift should have because she's (presumably) white, popular, rich, good looking, Midwestern, Christian, etc.

To them politics is not about ideas, or policies, or problem solving, or good governance. It's all about identity.

No really, you are the one who has no idea what the left is advocating. I am very involved in leftist politics. If you agree with the things I said you are likely more aligned with the left than you think..

No idea what the bank account comment is about.. sounds like some weird conspiracy theory stuff, really dawg lay off the utube videos

It was weird conspiracy theory stuff when the Liberals and NDP illegally invoked the emergencies act to shut down the bank accounts of people contributing to a peaceful protest.

I'll lay off the conspiracy theory channels of... the house of commons video feed.

NDP

Are you talking about Canada?

Yes. The alleged socialists showed exactly what they actually think about the working class.
