Identity politics as a label is often used in such a general way that even when people call out that disability/sexual orientation/ethnic group interface with existing inequalities in a constructive way people still jump on it.
So anything from cancelling a debate to whatever is used... I don't think we are at the stage in society where people have stopped seeing other peoples identities and treat them 100% fair. Would be nice if we'd all be blind to it, but data shows that no, atm we are not and structural racism/ableism/transphobia etc. still exists.
