23. Actually it might be, and your first paragraph is countered by something we see right here on DU

as of late and that is an effort among some on the left most portions of our party and beyond objecting to "identity politics" and suggesting we should jettison them.

Support for measures to protect women, LGBT, POC, Jews, Arabs etc are a major obstacle in terms of the far left working with the far right. And here we see efforts to remove that obstacle.
