This is wrong. This is a major, perhaps fatal error. It is all about and only about ideas--they just happen to be ideas we loathe and hold in such contempt we can't believe that millions of our fellow citizens have swallowed them wholesale. Ideas like 'deserving to gulp the fruits of others' labors because "we deserve a fair chance.' " You can take it from there.
Let me rephrase:
It’s about ideas.
For a minority, our ideas are formed based on objective, rational principals.
For a majority now, their ideas are determined by their identity, or by identifying with an identity.
