> but I don't think you can blame feminists for this: they're just focused on other issues.

The problem is, liberals are vilifying Trump supporters for exactly that, being focused on other issues instead of social justice. They say that it doesn't matter that you disagreed with Hillary's liberal policies, putting conservatism over social justice makes you a complicit racist.

Some of that is being done. Its hard to see issues of social justice being marginalized, and not see it as racist.
The most prominent example I've seen has been with abortion. People say they voted for Trump because of Hillary Clinton's policy stance on abortion, so they end up being accused of racism because making abortion a bigger dealbreaker than social justice apparently makes them complicit racists.
