You think "identity politics" means "communism", that "communism" means "socialism" and that "liberal" means "left"?!
Alright. We're using different dictionaries.
Sometimes Democrats are like "but I'm a woman" because their policies are otherwise indistinguishable from the Republican, ok sure. Democrats are just Republicans that wave a pride flag. If that's the claim than agreed.

Thinking identity politics, liberalism, leftism, socialism, the Democrats and communism are equivalent.
I know people who think this. I have them in my family. Doesn't mean it's correct
Proceeds to quote wacko communist politics.
When I say traditional left, I don't mean far, academic, elitist left. I'm talking union, FDR, JFK, LBJ, Bernie Sanders types. Not academics who write books about the role of Cuban women in the Communist revolution.
You hilariously proved exactly my point.
