I think this would be true, if identity politics were a left wing model, but it isn’t. It’s about centralising power into a small minority of very vocal people who decide what is good for the group. Eventually these people level up, as they always have done — and the situation does not get resolved.

There’s something more complex at play here and it’s to do with the way democracy functions within the class system. I’ve outlined my argument in this article. https://medium.com/lucid-nightmare/what-we-all-lose-when-society-plays-identity-politics-397dcb896d5b — so I won’t repeat it all — but I do believe that playing identity politics is making things better for a middle class minority of BIPOC at the expense of poorer white and BIPOC folk. It’s a short term feel-good win, with a long term cost the rest of us will have to deal with.
