It's like watching a delayed version of US and UK politics. complete with the hard-right neoliberals doing some Identity Politics Whitewashing after a major defeat by making a pro-wealthy politician who happens to be of the female gender their leader in order to claim they're progressive rather than regressive.

As if they didn't eagerly support the biggest Discrimination around by all metrics - that based on Wealth.
