Populists narrow the concept of the people down to themselves, according to the motto, "We are the people," and discriminate against others. Right-wing populists tend to belittle groups they consider weaker, such as migrants, women, sexual minorities and the disabled, and to persecute them more or less violently. Left-wing populists, on the other hand, identify with groups they consider oppressed and argue about which minorities are legitimate in the fight against oppression. In doing so, they do not shy away from belittling others in racist, sexist and age-discriminatory terms, such as old, white men.
