Maybe they could use that to come together.
You mean like people from the KKK being Republican and people from the BP being Democrat? Does identity politics mean that you lean a certain way politically because of the group you are in?
I think far too many people fail to understand history when trying to equate the two. One is a group promoting oppression, the other is a group responding to oppression.
I am not talking about this year, or the past 5 years, but our collective history.
Far too many even if not bigots, still do not want to face that the data shows that between blacks and whites, our economic and justice system hurts blacks more negatively on average.
"Identity politics" is a new term promoted by the right to muddle the issue and justify blaming. The KKK are the only "identity politics". "Black Lives Matter" are not saying blacks are superior, but "we matter too".
America has not faced its roots of racism, even today. Those whom understand what is going on would love it nothing more than to be about wallet issues and nothing else. But the left are not the ones ignoring the inequity. It should be about afordable living for all, urban, suburban and rural.
The fact that 50 years after the days of segregation we have a president pandering to the worst in society says we still have a problem.

LOL It's fun to watch the usual suspects double down making further accusations of racism. Apparently, pointing out that something isn't racist makes you a racist.
LOL... double down is exactly what I was thinking.

Who are you saying is a bigot? On what do you base that conclusion?

Why do you say that it has gone over my head? Or is this just a tactic to avoid the questions?

You two are fucking dense.
We have a president who has said,
"They're rapists" referring to Mexicans.
"Muslim ban" referring to other religions, but I guess the Amendment doesn't mean shit to you.
"Sons of Bitches" referring to black NFL players.
So if you are not a racist, why would you support an asshole who talks like one?
45s talk wasn't "telling it like it is", it was political xenophobia, to which we have not seen since Jim Crow, McCarthism and WW2 Germany.
So, if you don't like being equated to a racist, then don't fucking elect one as president.
You, "I am not a racist"
Me, "Great, then tell your dear leader to SHUT THE FUCK UP"

Would it be identity politics if an atheist claimed that all theists are stupid? Just wondering.
I get the impression that the people who make threads like this consider all atheists to be far left.
It seems they don't know anybody from that side, so they come here hoping to trigger someone.
What sort of person does that?
I guess that some of that sort of person's attributes would be anger, dishonesty, vengefulness, pettiness, etc.

I don't think pointing out false racism means a person is racist. Unless they start undermining REAL racism, then that's a problem.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

In Wooters case if that's all it was then you would be right . Unfortunately in Wooters case it's not so.
