The entire country has descended into a fight over identity politics. White Christian Normalsexual males are at the bottom of the heap, and all the $hit falls on their heads.
At the top are Female Hispanic transsexual m*slim dark-skinned self-identified women with a peanut allergy and a gluten intolerance.
it misplaces and mis-prioritizes identity.
What does that even mean?
Identity politics is misguided because prioritizing race or ethnicity above all else artificially bloats it with meaning, until it ceases to be a true and measured pride in one’s given identity.
Yet we have groups such as the Black & Hispanic Caucuses? Politicians who do exactly that and we are supposed to pretend that 'race' is just a skin color? We have a tangled mess of racial crap that we will not be able extract ourselves from without a whole realignment of our politics. In short we have a tar baby(can I say that?) on our hands
...and have claimed that Silvermanthe diamond merchant and interloper has a history of behaving rudely towards blacks and Latinos.
The black woman is a catspaw of the mayor, which would ordinarily be a knock against her. But in this case, she is probably the saner of the two. (Among DC Democrats, “sane” is a term of art.) Gentrification is on steroids. One big question dividing the democrats is how business-friendly the city should be. Silverman is basically a loot-the-producers leftie. She has never seen a tax or a fee or a mandate she wouldn’t support. For all her faults, the mayor at least understands that DC needs to be competitive with the inner ring counties with regard to taxes and regulation.
(Implied) because you know how THOSE people are.
"Behaving rudely" consists of failing to kiss their @$$e$.
It is interesting to see what happens when you give nerdy, social misfits like the techno-elite power and wealth. They are still socially awkward misfits, but now they have the position to screw up other people’s lives. It was better when they were all living in their parents basements and going to Gen-Con.
