Yeah, definitely. I don't have any proof, but very much believe that Occupy Wall Street was viewed as an actual threat and identity politics was weaponized against it, as you say.
To be clear, I don't mean "identity politics is dead" as in "racism is over" or anything like that. I mean it more in the sense of "Stop letting those in power divide us" and "there is no war but class war".
Keep your eyes on the prize, indeed.
