this tempted some activists to place a very high entry barrier on anybody who wants to participate in a political movement. If somebody wants to join a feminist movement committed to intersectionality, these activists now also expect that person to agree with a set of specific positions about such varied topics as the nature of race discrimination, the injustices suffered by disabled people, and the conflict in Palestine.
This is the fundamental problem. You move from a big tent activism into a rigid set of ideologies. There is no room for small tents of d allied people. All must adopt the same broad ideology. No longer can the enemy of my enemy be my friend.
