Identity politics, and the concern silos that come with them, have failed. It's my personal opinion that they were pushed as a means to divide us against each other over things that don't threaten the profits of the capitalist class.

Fight for human rights.

Yes, human rights includes LGBT+ rights.

Yes, human rights includes women's rights.

Human rights at work as well. Human rights to housing and Healthcare. No half measures, no negotiations.

We tried to negotiate with the 1% in the early 20th century. Much like negotiating peace with Putin, it was just a temporary cease fire while the 1% consolidated their power and let their propaganda networks soak the human mind.
