Has Crenshaw focused much on class apart from when affecting ppl with a marginalised identity?
The radical far-left. Identity politics and relativism is the other far-left. The centrists also revile them.

Those who are practicing ID politics and relativism here are not economically left. They are often even center-right, like Hillary.

No. I tend to say 'economic far-left' and 'identitarian far-left.'
-
Oh, to me you cannot be left if you are not economically left. It only denotes an economic stance, nothing else.
-
OK but if we are to talk, we need to understand each other. You probably wouldn't consider me Left.

If you want to refer to the Democrats, you should just call them Democrats instead of leftists because they have no leftist principles.

I'm not doing this, Daniel.

If you want to use imprecise language, you will probably be in this same situation a lot in the future.

I can define what I am talking about very precisely. I can write essays detailing the evolution of the Left.

This is not to say these things are non-existent in the left spectrum, but the Democrats are not leftists. We do not have a leftist party.

The Democrats have similar policies to our Conservative party. However, Left & Right fall either side of any culture's centre.

I discard the Overton Window when speaking about political philosophy as I think everyone should. That is cultural relativism.

OK, well I don't think talking is going to be possible then. About this, anyway. Hopefully we can talk about other things in the future.
