Identity politics ‘an ugly way to think about the world’

Author Lionel Shriver says identity politics is “an ugly way to think about the world and to behave toward other people”.

Speaking to Sky News, Ms Shriver said identity politics is a “very rigid social structure” that keeps people in boxes, pitting them against each other.

“It’s a movement that is bent on imposing a whole language and a way of thinking on everyone else.”

The writer also noted people are “constantly coming up with rules” and taboos against issues such as cultural appropriation but don’t have authority to do so.
