What does the left gain from propagating identity politics? All it does is lead to more division. Trying to blame descendants of european settlers for crimes against the ancestors of indegenous/african citizens is a massive distraction. Go back far enough and the land you think is yours was stolen from someone else. I'm reminded of Occupy Wall Street, a bunch of angsty college kids with a bone to pick but no idea who to blame. Washington knew what the risks of a movement like that gaining traction was. The media painted them as a bunch of entitled kids and it got shut down real quick. The common enemy of the people is the only one who gains anything from this division.
