You think the group that controls the mainstream media, hollywood, corporate HR and PR departments, K-12 education, Madison Avenue, the Administrative State, and the NGOs is the out group?

The in-group/out-group distinction doesn't define who has power, it just has to do with who you consider your in-group and who you consider the out-group. Although it is a very common in-group belief that the out-group has all the power. We love seeing ourselves as rebels and scrappy underdogs.
So a person who self identified as a democrat might see the the out-group as people who identify as republicans, and I don't want to put words in your mouth but it sounds like you consider the "left" (however you want to define that word) as the out-group.
You don't have to play the in-group/out-group game, I would recommend against it because all group identity is intellectual and moral suicide.
So in this case my post was pointing out that you are "otherizing" the "left" in a statement condemning the left for otherizing. It's not only funny but blissfully unaware.

The left is the in-group. Anyone who disagrees with the Borg is the out group.
And according to the left's social justice logic, the right cannot "otherize" the left because it doesn't have the power. Otherizing is combination of power and prejudice, which is how the left views the world. Though they have a blind spot here.
I'm going to go back to my satire comment. It sounds like this is just performative trolling (which I am not against) and that your point is to mock the whole in-group out-group dynamic.
I agree completely with that mocking.
I should have known that a person using the word 'otherize' obviously understands the in-group out-group dynamic.
I am sincere when I call that genius level trolling. It's perfect.
Yes, the left is the in-group and geeks and losers like you are safely on the outside looking in. Perhaps a slick PMC haircut will get you in the door. And: You get slapped around recently at a mandatory work-related EDI session by a couple of Pam Grier types and a few look-alikes from the movie Hairspray? Just curious.
