Identity politics places the self as the highest principle and doubles down on cultural conflict.

The problem with identity politics is that you are placing as the highest principle yourself. Of course, the reason that they feel aggrieved is they say, well, white men, inverted commas, have dominated culture and been the de facto top icon for hundreds of years, maybe thousands of years. But that doubles down on the cultural conflict because white men that are not economically advantaged feel very, very angry and aggrieved when they hear people say, oh, you've had all these privileges when they know they haven't had privileges.
