Yeah, we went backwards but they call it progress. Identity politics is poison, we're all individuals, period! Like, if you take intersectionality to it's logical conclusion you're left with the individual, right? The social sciences need serious reform, they've gone off the rails.

Not a bug, but a feature of the people who support identity politics.

Never forget, the people pushing identity politics over equality are the grifters. They are in it for themselves, they know they're in it for themselves, they made the conscious decision to destroy equality with hatred for the other in exchange for their own personal power and a chance to turn social equality into their chance to play Harry Potter with their friends. They are openly sending society back to the 1950s social justice-wise, and they're doing it because in their minds if society goes back to the '50s then they can reroll history so THEY, PERSONALLY, get to be MLK this time. And they'll tell you this to your face, and they'll laugh because they know they've already won because they have more of a following and an identity that means they can play the wounded gazelle and take out anyone they want.

They know 'you take intersectionality to its logical conclusion you're left with the individual', that's the endgame of "once intersectionality has been accepted, they can say 'and therefore, that's why the only true equality is to make me, personally, the God of this new world. Worship me or you're an -ist or -phobe!"
