Stage One: some people are intrinsically inferior to others and it's perfectly OK to exploit the inferior
Stage Two: there are no differences. Race and gender are oppressive social constructs. "Woke"
Stage Three: there are differences, they are real, but they don't represent inferiority and superiority
The big problem with stage two is that it's false. And it therefore has potential to collapse under the weight of its own falsehood back to Stage One. Women are not men, but trans women are. There is an element of continuum to race but there are distinct races, they are different, and not just culturally.
Vietnamese people coming into my room wrinkle their noses at the catbox smell yet I can stand right over it and not smell a thing. This is consistent.
