Well . It is a factor . And a useful one . <| sep |> ' Identity politics ' is about dividing people along arbitrary linesNot arbitrary at all . and then declaring one side the moral , virtuous ones while the other side are the villains who oppress them . Won ' t somebody please think of the poor , oppressed white men ! It ' s about proclaiming one group better than anotherOr , you know , it ' s the complete fucking opposite of this . It was wrong when Aryans blamed Jews for all their problems . Oh there we go . <| sep |> It ' s not magic , we ' re literally overthrowing Syria in slow motion . Crazy to see US taxpayer money and now blood go to this unjust action while citizens are propagandiated with ' brutal dictator ' rhetoric . People should stand against it and hopefully the incoming President won ' t send more US troops to their death invading sovereign countries as the last two have .
