    It's earnest in the sense that the atomized members within it, desperate for community, have found their political group to identify with and will defend it from haters and make basedcringe wojak memes about it to demonstrate their dedication. It's not earnest in the sense that none of them will do anything politically beyond voting for their candidates every 2-4 years, because it's just affectation to them.

      I'm glad that our political tendency of choice can actually, indisputably point to things like defeating Fascism, ending famines, bringing literacy to the highest levels in the world, and generally improving the livers of poor people.
