Tbh, I'm fairly put out by the widespread tendency to conflate LW & RW
populism. What wd YOU call a mvmt to restore a democracy that has bn effectively captured & undermined by monied interests?
Is it a "democratic movement" when it's good, & "populist" when we don't like it?

RW populism & LW populism overlap in "recruits" but are fundamentally different. Trump's (faux) RW populism panders to those high in SDO & ressentiment - tribalists who want to kick over the sandcastles of cosmopolitans out of spite. LW populism seeks systemic reforms, inclusion.
