A FAIR study of US newspapers found the overwhelming majority of times the vague term “identity politics” was mentioned, it was referring to Democrats and the left.
Of course it’s used as an attack on the Left, the phrase is the political equivalent of calling someone “ethnic”. It’s white-male normativity by the owner class.
“Genteel” white men controlling all political power and wealth is normal politics, but other people being involved is identity politics.
