I would agree. It's divisive. More specifically, it objectifies that which is subjective. It's dehumanizing; the objectification of other people contributes to societal change that runs counter to principles of equality and respect for others, threatens civil rights, and ultimately can result in genocide or mass killings. Furthermore, self-objectification impairs the ability of oppressed groups to act collectively on their own behalf. In contrast, the process of decolonization supports collective action and positive societal change, in part because it liberates oppressed people from self-objectification.
Of course it is. That's why they're doing it. Balkanize the public with identity politics, let them fight each other and the govt does whatever it pleases. Trotsky scattered his seed far and wide, it seems.
its when when realize the Una-bomber had some good points about us forfeiting our autonomy...his means however rather disagreeable.
