Identity politics has been weaponised to sow division across the Western world. Genuine liberals believe in meritocracy, equal opportunity, and colour-blind justice.
However, these noble ideals are being abandoned in favour of what’s called identity politics. It seeks to divide people by race, gender, sexuality, and even religion. But why should things in public life be boiled down to these categories?
CIS scholar, Yuki Cheng explains that no element of human misery is above being exploited by politically-motivated agitators. For those who dare to object, an aggressive mob is deployed to unleash their most lethal tool – cancel culture.
