This Identity Politics is a cancer on the political landscape. It is used to create differences between groups with inflammatory results. It does not unify anyone. The more the differences between us are emphasized, the less likely people will feel outrage at their mistreatment.

The left doesn’t really care about race, feminism, gender or the environment when they emphasize the differences among groups. It creates denial of moral failures it seeks to correct. Instead, Identity Politics becomes a method to use groups as tools used to further their real goal which is to take down the American system through revolution.

Agreed! But that said, to suggest that for example, Law Enforcement should not take into consideration these factors as they go about their activities, leads only to “unplanned deaths” among their ranks. So much to say, if you don’t “profile,” you may well end up an unfortunate statistic. That’s sad, but it’s far too true.
