    Kamala really pulled back the curtain on just how cynically liberals view idpol topics with that.

    Really just coming right out and saying “I use race, class, and gender issues as a means of making myself look like I’m fighting for the oppressed, but I ultimately don’t care otherwise.”

    This is exactly why there are so many reactionary anti-idpol “bernie bro” type succdems. They can intuitively sense that Democrats cynically use identity politics as a means of avoiding actually calling for or implementing policy, but instead of blaming the cynical usage, they blame identity politics as a whole.
