One of the biggest issues with intersectionality, or Critical Social Justice, is the fact that there is little cost for its adherents. Like the article said it is incredibly easy and costs the adherents nothing, it is very capitalistic while at the same time calling for the destruction of capitalism. On Matt Taibbis podcast I came across Adolph Reed who was a guest and he had a very interesting perspective about intersectionality being a play by neoliberal corporations. The whole idea seemed a little conspiratory for me but it was interesting and probably holds some amount of truth when you look at major companies social media output and commercials. Woke Capitalism for people who hate Capitalism.
