When did "communities" come to represent identities?

Way back when, you wouldn't refer to communities as anything other than neighborhoods. You would refer to different people as "black people" or "filthy trannys" or what have you. The only similar syntax in the past would be referring to "the Asian community" or "the gay community" but that's because they were usually a neighborhood/political bloc. Now it's "the capital-B Black community" or "the trans community" aka people who have nothing in common besides superficial traits and their judicial sentences. But how does White Fragility intersect with MAGA in any way besides skin color? No one would make that assumption. Who dares to talk about "the white community" and how dumb that idea sounds? God forbid "the capital-W White community."

When did this habit begin and does anyone see a turnaround in the future?

We used "Fandom" for the fanbase nerds. It is a deceitful way to say people know each other or are somehow bonded together by their interests/characteristics, and that is just not true for the most part. The same goes for the "community" talk. They project their ideals onto people to hide that they are weirdos with peculiar interests.

It was started in the social studies of the universities. Derives from Marxism, literally.

In order to fundamentally change the US, you need to implement change. The fastest way is to join people under a common goal to overthrow the proletariat. So you have to find that commonality. Instead of unifying on the basis of class, these retards chose to go hard and unify based on social characteristics. The problem is that now, they have fractured it so far that they are fighting each other.

Ok I know this is the place for making jokes but this is the real answer. Basically in the time of the civil rights movement and gay liberation it was found that the best way to fight being oppressed was to group together. That's where say the LGBT movement came from. In other words, as individuals we are weak sticks, but together, we are a strong fagot.

The community becomes your identity once no other community will have you. Every civilization has had a name for their niggers, and it’s never a nice name.

That's why everything is a "community" these days. Every trait is now seen as a political bloc, not just some superficial quality you might share in common with somebody else.

Ok ok. If you want to identify as being on the list, you can. You are all honorary members of the listed community. So far no one has been such a retard as the premier member and I hope no one is as stupid.

There's been a few honest responses to the op and I thank all of you for engaging. I didn't originally think this was just a shitposting forum so please help prove me right. Nice getting some actual formed opinions.

Alternatively keep adding yourselves to the list; I'll pass it on to Satan once I hit the afterlife. It might be a while though.
