When talking of identity politics, the identity of the speaker is included with the content.

It definitely is a variant of an ad hominem logical fallacy (they are X demographic so they must know and represent all X). But critical thinking goes out the window with identity politics.

And if you identify as white (or others identify you as white), you're just wrong. There's even insults of that type: Karen, Chad, Josh. Doubly so if you are or identify as male.
