I agree, this infographic is not a fine-tuned enough instrument for identity politics...for the reasons mentioned by the amazing @redhens who I am about to follow! And another:
Identity politics logically amounts to radical individualism, whereby every data point in existence modulates the intersectionality equation. This results in combinatorial explosion: too many variables to solve for at once, all emerged in feedback loops. See the film, "Synecdoche New York" http://m.imdb.com/title/tt0383028/
Also want to add my thanks for bringing up a controversial topic that affects our lives,
Identity politics is radically individualistic....?
That seems contradictory
:/
It is indeed self-contradictory, and needs a reductio ad absurdum to refute it. The movie I shared is that absurdity played out on screen.
Identity politics tries to put us into demographic boxes and label those boxes "identity". Then intersectionality comes along and starts refining the categories of people in the boxes. For example, a gay Latino man may have male privilege, but it is intersected by lack of privilege due to lgbt and ethnicity discrimination.....A person's identity is too many intersections to apply broadly across a culture. It's absurd. :)
