Let's say somebody says "I don't like [feminism/intersectionality/BLM] because [some non-sense far-right strawman /something done by random people like nonpolical-celebs/corporations/democrats], things should just be [the non-strawman version]".

Is there a better way to phrase the following sentance:

The thing you don't like is called "Liberal Identity Politics".

    I might go for "bourgeois identity politics" The differences between say bourgeois feminism and radical/revolutionary feminism are well written about and I think those ideas are easily extrapolated to the greater struggle of identity and oppressed minorities.
