Identity politics is great and all until you need to like eat food or catch a bus or get a job and then your subjectively constructed worldview comes crashing down because culture is founded on economic, material, access-to-resources objectivity and your brain stops working because glycolysis isn't happening anymore and then the covalent bonds comprising your molecules break apart as your meat dries out in the sun and entropy wins out because the second law of thermodynamics doesn't care how you identify in your particular culture. If only there were ample jobs and education and transporation and affordable housing and a living wage in your particular region, then maybe you'd have the freedom to give a shit about some temporary construct of the intersubjective intellect
