    I didn’t link a video lol and your own political circles revolving around intersectionalism does not mean that is all there is; I think there’s been a lot of manipulation in the media to make it center of mind because it gets clicks and serves to distract; but if you want that badly to be conservative and make judgement calls on people individually that extend to their entire sex instead of holding more nuanced opinions about issues that can be solved systemically then go for it, I can’t stop you.

    Identity politics coding is everywhere, and on some level I need to “pick a side”.

    No, you don’t. That’s what I’ve been telling you. Who cares if it’s niche. It’s better than giving up on all your other values and saying you’re conservative or “more” conservative than liberal just so you can bicker about which sex is more oppressed than the other. Maybe you’ll be the person that makes someone else see the light if you do the work to better contextualize what you’re trying to say, and then your ideology is that slight amount less niche.
