>>2919992Woke idpol has lead to the highest ever numbers of people identifying as socialists and communists in the Anglo world. This theory is stupid.
What actually happened is that politics has become mostly about dispositional expression. Wokeness and leftism appeal to one underlying disposition, and right-populism and reaction to another. /Leftypol/'s traditional anti-idpol stance is just what happens when you pair leftism with the underlying autism and alienation of imageboard users, and not for nothing has leftypol become more progressive over time.
(4chan on the other hand pays rapeape to keep his thumb on the scale in /pol/s favor)
