Resistance to “socialist” policies like universal healthcare, rent subsidies, and food distribution fuels conservative identity politics and manifests as the “freedom” to gather unmasked and refuse vaccinations. Adhering to ideologies that increase inequality in order to funnel more wealth to the already-wealthy, therefore, both indirectly and directly, made the current pandemic more deadly in the United States than it had to be.
