Someone who makes politics their entire social identity, and won’t shut the fuck up about politics. Generally, they hate whoever espouses beliefs stemming from a party not of their own.
Don’t talk to Karen, she’s a political parasite, and will be fervently listening to every word you say, and will try to destroy your happiness based on that which she doesn’t agree. Tom is the same way, even though he’s on the opposite end of the political spectrum.

1. A government employee whose job is not viewed to be particularly important by most of the people who don’t work for the government that run into them, but their role plays an important function in keeping the government running efficiently and effectively. Usually, their employer or the individual/s who run the department or agency, because of their position in the government, work in the public spotlight, while political shadows tend to work more in the background, or in other words in the shadows, where they are seldom noticed by the general public. Often times these people either work in jobs where they don't deal with people that often, or they work in jobs where they deal with people frequently, but their role is frequently viewed as being less important than the role held by their employer.
2. The political impact an individual or group has on the world around them

1. Dave is a political shadow. He is a policy analysist who works for the U.S. Representative Aderholt. Most of the people who encounter him don't think his role is anywhere near as important as the role his employer has in the U.S. Government; yet without Dave, the policies would not be written that well and may not be as effective in achieving what the law was intended to do. Hence, he plays a very important role in ensuring the government operates in an effective manner.
2: Alexandra has a large political shadow because of the large number of Black Lives Matter protests and women's marches she has attended over the past four to five years; along with the numerous times she has lobbied political officials on various issues related to gender equality, gun control, racial justice, education, and the Covid-19. She has a very large political impact on the world around her.

The ability of some individuals, because of certain experiences in their life and or the type of educational background they have, to be able to tell certain things about a person, including their social views, political beliefs, what motivates them, how the person views themselves and those around them, how they will likely handle themselves in certain situations, how to effectively counter their methods if necessary, etc., based on the individual’s attire and behavior in certain places compared to the societal norms about what type of attire people are expected to wear and how they should behave in those places, how they talk about certain topics, what type of public image they try to portray themselves as being, how they handle themselves in certain situations, especially in embarrassing situations, crises, and disagreements, and various other things. It is important to note that not everyone can do this; as these types of evaluations can be rendered inaccurate if the person who does this does not have a decent amount of control over their biases, expectations about how other people behave, is not attentive to detail, and or is not well educated on politics, social norms, and social issues.
Cisco: I wonder why James gets so aggressive when someone disagrees with his political views. He always asserts that he is right even when he is not.
Vulko: Based on what I have observed when I have had to deal with him, he seems to be rage driven because he seems to enjoy having disagreements with people on stuff like that. I also think he does tend to be quite arrogant. He likes to win fights as it boosts his ego, which might explain why he always asserts that he is right.
Cisco: What makes you think he is arrogant?
Vulko: I figured out based on how he dresses more formally when going to various events compared to the rest of his family, which suggests he does seem to have an arrogance streak.
Cisco: You seem to be good at figuring out drives people and what gets them to act in various ways.
Vulko: I have a strong social political sense, which is what allows me to read people.
Cisco: I see.

Political correctness is basically the reason why half of all jokes are "oFfEnSiVe" or something. I couldn't care less if you called me a pig (I'm a cop after all) but some 14 year old white girl on Twitter will get offended for me. Actually, that won't happen because political correctness has single-handedly caused cops to he hated on Twitter. People who follow political correctness also tend to be racist towards white people for whatever reason.

A person who partakes in trendy political agendas purely on being fashionable with what's happening for their own shallow appearance.
"it angers me how many people are talking about what people can say and what they can't. Can you believe that people are trying to limit free speech if its offensive!?"
"I know, don't worry. It'll be over soon, they're just political fashionistas. Soon the trends will shift to something else.
