Democrats make no secret of the fact that they’re obsessed with identity politics, even though they typically don’t put it in those exact terms. But nevertheless, they are.

Perhaps no other cable news network’s topic choices exemplify this better than MSDNC MSNBC, where on any given day you will be a witness to panels full of “woke” liberals quick to point out that there are a lot of white men in the House GOP.

“All In” host Chris Hayes presented folks with a case study on Wednesday in how making such observations can end badly, especially if the person making the observation conveniently forgets what his own backyard looks like.

While watching the House debate the articles of impeachment, Hayes exclaimed:

I don’t believe that demographics are destiny – all kinds of people can have all kinds of politics, – yet my god the difference in the diversity of the two major coalitions in this country is just so so so stark. Feels very much, watching this, that it’s the core of the thing.

90% of the House Republican caucus are white men. 90%!

When another Twitter user weighed in with a similar opinion, Hayes confirmed that was his point:

It’s kinda the whole point!

Except there’s something Hayes left out of his Twitter “commentary” complaining about too much whiteness, as others helpfully pointed out with screen grabs of MSNBC’s primetime lineup page:

Not only that but, you know, there’s this alarming (for Democrats) and inconvenient fact as well about who the Democratic nominee for president likely will be:

100% of Democratic Presidential nominees are going to be white too. https://t.co/M412Rf24f8

And as another person noted, diversity in thought is the most important type of diversity there is:

I guarantee you there is more diversity of thought among that 90% than what there is in 100% of the democrat caucus.

Can’t argue with that.
