This last paragraph is totally a conspiracy theory I believe.

This whole intersectionality business is spreading way too fast, being too prominent in the media and front and center everywhere to not be at least encouraged by an hostile nation.

The use of propaganda and indoctrination to play sub-factions against each other in order to keep the larger group at a disadvantage is a tried and true tactic used by those with power since the beginning of recorded history. This specific implementation may or may not be true, but it’s hardly irrational to suspect.
Either a hostile nation, or economic elite trying to turn people’s attention away from the real issues of income inequality and taxation. Race, gender, whatever, in the end money is what primarily makes things right.
