a lot of left wing ideas are now represented more by right wing, if anything just because left wing today is more of a antiworkers, elitist, classist bunch of neoliberals
Strictly the left has switched places with what was once associated with the right. Today the right is the party of populism while the left is the party of Statism, centralized top-down control and authoritarianism under the control of the 1%.
Of course, the Democratic Party opposed abolition of slavery in the 19th century and the Republican Party was in large part formed to fight slavery. The Democratic Party supported by commission and omission: the KKK, Jim Crow, opposition to the Civil Rights Act of the 1960s, etc.
President Johnson specifically said of the CRA that blacks and people supporting it would live to regret it because they had a plan to use welfare to destroy the black community (which they pretty much succeeded at).
Interesting concept. I think there is a market for these types of devices, catering to niches in the market. A phone for liberals, a phone for conservatives, and a phone for...everyone else?? "Tongue in cheek" maybe but I am surprised that phones are not being built and sold to narrower markets, for example sports fans. A phone made to watch, read, and engage in sports.
Narrower market phones by OEMs sounds like it’ll lead eventually to the ‘Easter phone’ or ‘mothers days phone’ — rampant consumerism with bad experiences that wind up in a garage sale, thrift store or land fill.
Better to have a quality product with custom case imho.

And now we've seen that TRUE personality return.

Is there no market available for these?
