Left-Wing Populism
Left-Wing Populism is a culturally and economically left wing ideology that emphasizes the popular frustrations of the working class (e.g. lack of healthcare, poverty, unemployment) for political gain. It's proponents either advocate some form of
Socialism (typically 
Democratic Socialism) or just 
Social Democracy. It saw a rise after the events of the Financial crisis of 2007-2008 and the Europe debt crisis, leading to movements like Occupy Wall Street. It believes that it is the only viable way to fight off 
Neoliberalism and that 
Right-Wing Populism will only make it stronger. Like its brother, it also opposes the EU for the most part, but is usually more open to reforming it rather than abolishing it.

Personality and Behaviour
Left-Wing Populism loves holding protests signs and browses 
Twitter for current issues. Sometimes may act as a champagne socialist and it's personality is similar to that of figures like 
Bernie Sanders, 
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, 
Jeremy Corbyn or 
Jean-Luc Melenchon, very gruff and hot-headed but still genuinely cares for the working class and minorities, even if they're not what they expected the working class to be.
How to Draw
The symbol of left-wing populism is a white fist (representing the power of the common people) on a red background (representing economic and cultural leftism).
- Draw a ball.
- Colour it red.
- In the centre, draw a white fist coming from the base.
- Draw some eyes and you're done!
