This is really hard to respond to because the general definition is straight forward, but concrete examples get controversial really quick. As I understand it identity politics is dominated by in-group and out-group thinking. The group can be racial, cultural, gender based, didn't really matter. Extreme examples are: You aren't allowed to speak about the situation of women in the work place without identifying as a woman; if you are pro abortion and don't smoke you are likely against guns and the crucial part: might be shunned from your social group of you aren't; funny example from a recent article here: if you are a true Vegan you also can't eat processed food like Quorn.
