Identity politics thrives because of the human need to belong.
It makes no demands on CHARACTER.
Instead membership is determined by D.N.A. - skin color, gender, sexual preferences enable members to believe that they are part of oppressed victim groups. "Poor me, I'm a victim" types feel empowered by the thought that they have found others who believe that they are oppressed just like them. They never take responsibility for their present lot in life.
It is easier for them to blame straight white males and the rich for their circumstances than accept personal responsibility.
As I said, it makes no demands on CHARACTER.
