Identity Politics

[Yonadav]

Your projections of what "the right" thinks of me are wholly unrealistic (not to mention they're not even based on an actual person's actual opinion) and is a testament to the divide identity politics has created. That's like saying you think everyone on the right is a white nationalist, Hitler loving, conservative Christian and that you think so because you're on the left.

You still haven't demonstrated that politics = identity politics either. So I can agree to disagree. No big deal.

And yet, arguing identity politics HAS proven to be political and social suicide for some on the left as well as the right, so you're just flat out wrong; it's not only a problem for people on the right.

And I just said it's not one-sided, that BOTH sides have been outed for not subscribing to the status quo? Are you retarded or just not reading what I'm actually writing? Right-wing folks are using identity politics on their own people as much as the left is. The idea that there's some conspiracy by the right to use identity politics to turn people on the left against each other is just bizarre and paranoid.

Jesus khemikal the shit you say sometimes is so dumb it's honestly alarming how you always think you're right about everything. Talking to you is like throwing ice at a brick wall. The sad part is is you will go to your grave thinking you have it figured out, that's just the type of person you seem to be. Maybe you're different in real life, who knows? Interacting with you is almost always a complete waste of time and energy.

Actually, I sort of believe that there is a little bit of a conspiracy to promote the popularity of identity politics on the left. Identity politics gets a lot of positive spin in the media-- which is owned by billionaires. And identity politics have been tearing the left apart. Gae is a pretty confused person who seems to think that socially liberal positions and identity politics are the same thing. For example when he claimed Bernie Sanders drips identity politics. No, Bernie Sanders drips socially liberal positions. Slamming him for giving a speech after the SOTU was identity politics.
