It's pretty telling when one can define their political enemies by both gender and race. Identity politics got it's can of whoppass in 90ties. Are new generations really doomed to repeat mistakes of past generations?

Apologies for the ambiguity - for what it's worth, I only use the term ironically here since that's the vision most anti-reddit people seem to have of reddit's userbase, I probably should have put it in "quotes". Reddit is a diverse place and there's more than enough room for everybody.

I don't buy into all of this identity politics bullshit, dismissing someone for their race, gender, social status, sexuality, and so on is regressive and precisely people should be railing against, not perpetuating.
