The thing that really bothers me here is that this is a pretty much textbook definition of intolerance, and frankly I have no idea how people have come to the belief that they can campaign for (let alone achieve) progress for ... well ... anything at all with outrage and inflexibility. "You got this WRONG so BYE BYE NOW" is only ever going to be counterproductive when it comes to mainstream thinking, so all you end up with is increasingly insular communities, full of confirmation bias, preaching-to-the-choir, and resentment.

This is the real "culture" problem we're facing right now, and it applies to countless groups from all across the spectrum. I see a tonne of practical similarities between LGBTQ, BLM, MAGA and Trumpites, Tommy Robbo and his ilk, and at the extreme end of the scale, extremist groups across the political spectrum.
