Something really annoying about identity politics is how it can weaponize it’s own critique just in locaized reduces form. By that I mean when people are like “Listen to X identity and you’ll see that Y is true!” and then someone is like “I’m X and I don’t believe Y” people will be like “Umm you don’t speak for all of X stop pretending you do blah blah” when ofc there might not have been any standpoint-claim being made just that the initial premise isn’t true because of countless counterexamples. Basically people will project identitarianism onto people trying to critique identity politics and then use arguments that are really critiques of identity politics as a defense of identity politics.

Like there is just a total inability and unwillingness to conceive of politics outside of fighting over who gets spokesperson status
