I think you’re missing my point.
Identity politics is a decidedly liberal trait. To liberals, you’re not an American, you’re a “Jewish American”, or an “African American”, or whatever. Rush Limbaugh has spoken about this quite a bit.
But my larger point is that the conversation here on FR has really coarsened over recent years. You haven’t been here on FR that long, so maybe that’s not obvious to you. IMHO, the site has grown less about conservatism, and more about populism, and there’s an increasingly disturbing amount of hate here. I doubt that it’s JimRob that has changed - just the type and attitudes of people that post here.
How would you sugar coat that list?
Yeah, I don’t like the identity politics either. If you are a citizen, that is what should be important.
