Yes, exactly, it’s her religion. People believe that religion has to involve believing and worshiping a higher power, but that isn’t the only religion. We all worship something. for example, wokeness has become a prominent religion in America, as people believe their identity gives them some higher meaning, purpose, or value; this simply isn’t true.
Many on the left (and right) view politics as their identity because it is what will save them from pain, heartache, despair, etc. There is no situation which a political agenda can bring a utopia, an unending bliss. It isn’t possible. No matter how hard one tries to avoid it, they will have to suffer.
Some people even worship sports, but that will never save anyone either. I have seen grown men go, “If I could just see my team win a championship, I would be happy.” No, no you won’t. You will have a temporary mountain top moment where you will be riding high for a couple days, then reality sets in. You can never win in sports. Look at Michigan, most fans would kill to have their college win a national championship, yet their fans are at each others throats a year later. New England won 6 titles in less than 20 years, but you wouldn’t know it by looking at their fans, who are miserable in 2024. It’s a cycle that never ends; it can never and will never save anyone from whatever they are trying to be saved from.
