I hate that right-wing phrase “identity politics.” All politics is identity politics, and always has been.

A hopeful politician puts forth ideas, and you identify yourself in that and say “Yeah that’s what I support.” (Or the opposite.)

No right-winger ever engaged in identity politics (cough, abortion, guns, racism, &c) No, those aren’t identity politics, they’re something else but not that.
