Unfortunately, there are too many people now who believe they are liberal and tolerant but don't know what it means since they preach and practice exactly the opposite values. It's sad because they spit on gains of the sexual, gender, and cultural revolutions up until about the 1970's and instead behave like hypocritical, ignorant fascists similar to the ones who were worth resisting centuries previously. I think the core problems are a lack of mentors and lack of pushback from previous generations of academic and cultural thought leaders to say "that's absurd". Instead, academically weak and immature instructors in academia are inculcating subsequent generations with misguided and absurd ideas about as equally insane as the MAGA movement. The result expressed on the greater society is we now have these 2 extremist cults who are doppelgängers of each other who suck the oxygen out of public policy and discourse.
