the socioeconomic upper strata has been captured into the "politically correct" culture

they adopt most of their beliefs, political positions, based on their identity and maintaining it

for example, if they became a mega MAGA trump supporter they'd lose all their friends, not be invited to ANY parties, be kicked out of the country club, they might lose their job, businesses would stop using their services if they work independently

with the left it's all based on IDENTITY

the cabal understands this kind of psychology and exploits it, has them in its thrall sadly
