You seem to be asking a leading question where you assume they’re against identity politics when they actually said they need to modernize their identity politics.
This implies it’s something bad, either entirely or in it’s current form. But i’ve never heard two people use the term in the same way, I’ve never heard anyone define it, and I’ve never seen anyone defend its use.
What do think “identity politics” is?
Sociological reductionism. Intersectionality was invented to overcome it but, so far, hasn’t actually done so.

No it doesn’t. It implies only what it says, that their specific use of identity politics is out of date.
