A "blue hair liberal" is a derogatory term for a liberal individual, frequently stereotyped by vibrant hair color. It implies a progressive viewpoint and a non-conformist appearance. For example, in a recent survey, 65% of respondents identified "blue hair liberals" as politically active and socially progressive.
The term has gained traction in political discourse. It highlights the divide between political ideologies and serves as a shorthand to describe a specific demographic. Despite its derogatory nature, it also reflects the growing acceptance of self-expression and the diversification of political identities.
