MAGA is literally nothing but identity politics and it’s so funny once you call them on it cause their policy positions are just stopping things that offend them

We don’t criticize the republicans for following identity politics the same way they call most democrat politicians “dei hires” and only associate their success to their social identities

If the inconsequential rebranding of a line of breakfast food is the most pressing identity politics issue you can think of on the left, I think we’re doing just fine.

“Policy positions” does not mean it has to be codified in law, nice try tho!

Then let’s make it an easier question for you, which democrat in power called to ban Aunt Jemima as one of their policy positions? Name that democrat and show proof.

You keep making straw men and moving the goalposts bro 💀 nobody said anything about laws or democrats in power. Liberals called for the removal of aunt Janina, simple as that

A position somebody has on a specific policy

The position a lawmaker or other politician takes on a policy, I.e. “democrats in power”

You know you can have a position on a policy without being a lawmaker right? Like I imagine you have an opinion on certain policies, I.e. a policy position

And the removal of Aunt Jemima isn’t a policy position because it isn’t a policy issue. It’s a sociopolitical/cultural issue involving a private company’s mascot.

So anything anyone wants any company to do, is a policy position?

That would be a policy. How you feel about the policy would be a policy position

So if I want a company not to do a certain thing with their advertising or marketing, that to you, is a policy position rather than an opinion since it doesn’t call for any government intervention?

Your question said “policy positions rather than opinion.” I would consider it both a policy position and an opinion

No, I’m not asking for a preferred renaming. I’m asking what would that policy position be if there’s no call to action from the gov. That’s the only entity relevant to the topic of policy positions when talking about a proposal on a given issue.
