I would say "big red shiny spiky". So yeah, no hard and fast rule.

Interesting. That definitely seems off to me... 'shiny' first for sure... English is your second language right? How would it be in Russian?

English is basically my first language - I think in English. In Russian it would be to taste also I guess.

I guess in context you would usually put modifiers in order of relevance. In a vacuum, my ordering sounds the most natural to me.

It's a big red shiny spiky day in this neighborhood.

Works for me.

That can't be correct: people change their religious affiliation all the time. And being a veteran is immutable as far as I can tell. You're just making things up here.

What does "tend to be" mean to you exactly?

"Identity Politics" is, as e_d alluded to, much like "woke" and "cancel culture" - very vague terms that people use rather loosely to describe things they don't like. But the use of it for the pic in the OP seems pretty bizarre. People were wearing pink to Barbie because they're Barbie fans, and Barbie is all about fashion, pink being a big part of that, and people think it's fun to wear pink, etc., etc. One of those shared pop culture moments we get every year or two. So the "identity politics" here would be JT supporting Barbie/Barbie fans for...I'm not really sure what political reason. To divide Barbie fans and non-Barbie fans?

As I said to the OP back when he posted this the first time - "If you want to argue that it's some kind of virtue signaling, or a political stunt, then I can at least see the argument."

And even that's stretching things IMO. It appears to me to be nothing more than simply sharing a picture of him out with his kid, or at worst JT being JT - "look at me, I'm doing the same cool things the rest of you regular people do".

Why is Catholic an identity group, but army veteran, convicted felon, victim of sexual assault, etc., not an identity group?

Because Catholicism is a religion. I already addressed this.

luckbox have you considered that maybe this isn't the thread for you and you should try again in the next one?

But I thought religion is an exception to the rule that you made up on the spot?

The actual political statement, coming right after the separation, was probably more like "look at me, I'm still a great dad even though I'm separating".

What part do you think I've gotten wrong?

What do you think the academics say identity politics is about?

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Identity_politics

Identity politics is politics based on a particular identity, such as race, nationality, religion, gender, sexual orientation, social background, social class.[1]

Sorry guys...nothing about occupation or veteran status but there is religion right there.

Yeah, meant to mention that and completely forgot. Probably the top reason right there.

How about movie fandom, did that make the list?

I haven't seen the Barbie movie yet, and feel quite alienated and minimized by the picture. I was actually going to hang out with one of my friends tonight, but then it came up that I hadn't seen the movie, and the evening was cancelled. ****ing Trudeau and his identity politics!

ur a math teacher, this is invalid logic.

...no....

how do words work?

words don't have definitions....only what we ascribe them, else who/what is the authority?

And it's from the person telling me I should sit it out...pink specifically to Barbie is the whole point. Wtf are people supposed to wear to Oppenheimer? Mushroom clouds?

I guess that I was looking for something better than an ipse dixit response.

No one's concerned now that its not identity politics. I was at least mistaken thinking that people here on the right would call it such, so was expecting...a few?

Ok thats invalid logic. That doesn't parse.

Lemme respond by this....that its a picture with his son doesn't support your point whatsoever.

Why do we care about wikipedia definitions? We are asking about your idiosyncratic definition that doesn't even have negative connotations. But if you want to rely on your wikipedia article, then I guess we have to deal with this:

thats a literal strawman.

You want to claim this was a personal life picture? I'll grant you it as a perspective, but its helping me understand how ya'll frame this.
