What I read is his friends identified him as economically leftist, but took issue with identity politics

[–] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 5 points 8 months ago

Which depending on context could be as simple as "I dont care ill mind my own business you mind yours." which I suspect is what most folks opinions boil down to.

Identity politics will be the downfall of democracy if Democrats don't stop that bullshit

[–] dessimbelackis@lemmy.world 15 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (1 children)

The problem with that is that oppression injustice, and inequity are often based on a person‘s identity

[–] Argonne@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Still do it, just don't base your entire platform on it. It's not that hard to understand but most democrat politicians can't

[–] dessimbelackis@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago

Agreed there, democrats continue to refuse to challenge their economic masters and try to use identity politics as a sop

[–] abbotsbury@lemmy.world 6 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Why do you blame Democrats for identity politics and not Republicans for passing laws based on identity politics?

[–] Argonne@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago

Because that's what Republican voters want and that's enough for them. They vote on spite and hate and the GOP feeds them it

[–] madjo@feddit.nl 2 points 8 months ago

I don't believe that the democrats actually based their entire platform on identity politics. That's more a right wing issue, in that they have an issue with the existence of certain groups of people.

I don't remember seeing a trans person as a speaker at any of the rallies for the DNC, for instance.
