What you say is all true, and for sure, all the cancers the left thought only existed on the right - misogyny, anti-Semitism, racism, homophobia, etc. have always been there, as has been cancel culture long before it had a name (Google E.O. Wilson sometime if you're bored & aren't familiar with this problems with Boomer college students)…

Wilson sometime if you're bored & aren't familiar with this problems with Boomer college students). What gets me I think is the conscious turning over of one's critical thinking faculties to what you so aptly describe as a cult (as have myself and many others). What particularly bothers me is how easily gaslit so many feminists are by manipulative men who appropriate womanhood and get the girlies to do what they want (except for lesbians who seem a bit more rebellious against penii, lol). Feminism has a very long way to go when women can be convinced to allow male bodies - even convicted sex offenders! - in female spaces and prisons. I've never figured out why the hippies could condemn Nixon's campaign in Vietnam in one breath and support ratbastards like Castro and other southern hemisphere dictators so easily. Or how white so-called liberals today can bow and scrape before the racists in 'antiracism' who are clearly just as racist (against white people), including re-defining a fair number of non-white Jews as white to justify their anti-Semitism. But to be honest, I've been just as mystified by how far-righters have hijacked conservatism and turned it into MAGA stupidity. Chickens for Colonel Sanders, and many genuine conservatives who haven't turned their brains over to the MAGA cult are just as afraid to speak up against their own terrorists as libs are against our woke ones.
I'm one lesbian who has protested regularly at my UU church, all to no avail. It has been three years of seeing UU becoming an illiberal, anti-women, and racist religion. This has been a very sad and angry time for me.
