'''Left-Wing Populism '''is an economically and (usually) culturally left-wing ideology that emphasizes the popular frustrations of the working class (e.g. lack of healthcare, poverty, unemployment) for political gain. Its proponents either advocate some form of [[File:Soc-h.png]] [[Socialism]] (typically [[File:Demsocstar.png]] [[Democratic Socialism]]) or just [[File:Socdem.png]] [[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 [[File:Neoliberal-icon.png]] [[Neoliberalism]] and that [[File:Rpop-tinfoilhat.png]] [[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.
