>All politics is identity politics.

This is probably as true today as at any time in the past. What has changed, for the worse, is the definition of "other" identities (those that are not our own).

What did "rural america" mean to "city dwellers" in the 1970s? What does it mean now? I'd guess the definitions most of us carry in our minds have narrowed.
