User:Skakkle/coded (culture and politics)/political labels

So far, commentators have been largely uncreative with such labels.

I will give one small example now, but this sort of labeling is probably a very widely used mode of analysis, even if everyone talks about it differently.

"Coding" may be a new way to talk about voters' perceptions in a post-Trump environment
Krystal Ball particularly, and maybe Saagar Enjeti have tried to understand how voters may view the coding of RFK Jr or other third party figures. I guess they think he is "right wing coded", but this is rather speculative. Note, these sorts of designations can be fluid, especially when considering any "realignment" theories of modern politics. Such "realignment theories" make many bold claims. But in general, many agree that since the rise of Trump as a dominant political figure, the values of the Democratic Party and the Republican Party have shifted in notable ways. At least on a rhetoric level, if not for many policies.
