I'm getting curious about variables that seem like they should form a part of the basis of identity politics, but don't, like height (it is a shared trait, it is visible, it is the basis of some disadvantages). Are there are other such variables?
Well, in general identity politics takes roots around variables that are perceived to create weakness and therefore justify collective action to seek redressal.

Usually lefties are a sort of casual informal subgroup in some context (say, a lefties thread in a musicians forum, or a gun forum, etc) but we haven’t really been able to extend that to a more universal, enduring political group. There are sites and subreddits etc of course
