I'd believe anything that Salon had to say on the matter of identity politics, if their editorial stance couldn't be clearly summed up as "white men are bad" [1]. Here are a few of the choice articles they've published: * White men must be stopped: The very future of mankind depends on it [2] * Mass shooters: Part of a larger epidemic of white male rage [3] * Is male fragility to blame for Charlottesville violence? [4] If racial identity or gender identity are such an important facets of life, it was only a matter of time before people started strongly identifying and collectivising openly as "white" or "male". When you start a dialogue with "you have too much privilege and you can't talk on certain topics" you are closing discussions before they begin and are fracturing groups so they can collectivise based on more important line such as "class" or "wealth"... which is probably the intended goal of those fanning the flames identity politics to begin with.
