This is an interesting concept. I was just listening to an interview about something similar to this. They were talking about a certain black author who was causing some backlash on Twitter for calling something racist. Basically that they have created a binary of opinion where something is either antiracist or racist. He legitimately believes that "not racist" doesn't exist as a category. That is a problem but the bigger problem is that he assumes that he gets to decide what constitutes antiracist as a definition and so anyone who doesn't fall directly inside his narrow definition of antiracism is racist "by definition" .

I don't want to call this "the left" because this type of authoritarianism is right wing politically. It's more like extremist social or cultural liberalism. It's amazing how well that story aligns with this story. If you don't align with the gender religion mob then you are a Nazi. They don't let you have a neutral or moderate position.

I need to go think about the connection.
