The rise of identity politics and the decline of trust in institutions

Identity politics has become a dominant force in political discourse, leading to a decline in trust in institutions. The ideology behind identity politics rejects liberal principles and focuses on race, gender, and sexual orientation as the key prisms for understanding society. This shift has resulted in a loss of trust and a sense of heightened polarization. However, it is important to engage in open debate and argument to challenge these ideas and promote a more inclusive and tolerant society.
