The blow back to all this identity politics, is that it's going to make white cisgendered heterosexual men the most valuable employees and leaders. This for two reasons: 1) They are the least likely group to launch a discrimination lawsuit or expect good treatment. 2) Given the racism/sexism/ etc. ism of every other group, no identity group is going to trust another identity group to be a leader or boss. They will trust white cisgendered heterosexual men though because he is the only one who has to be completely sympathetic and uptodate on every other groups language, identity, feelings and opinions.

The problem with this though, is that every individual who belongs to one or more identity group is going be hired by the state and federal governments and the bureaucracy is going to be crazy screwy in 5-10 years and our government really is going to be run into the ground by a bunch of grievance mongering nutcases who feel like they aren't getting enough participation trophies.

Sure it is, it's a relatively obscure and specific synonym for normal

All the important and valuable work in the West is done by us already, mate. We could literally kick everyone else out and things would be mostly back to normal in a week.

Diversity hiring in the government has been causing all the problems in the first place.

Yep. Government trying to right historical wrongs as if we can go back in time and do it all over, started this. Ya can't right a historical wrong by causing a present day injustice.
