I've argued that there's a toxic, decadent, politically correct form of liberalism, just as there's a toxic form of conservatism. I defend the founding humanistic principles of liberalism, and wokeness etc may be based on those principles. But left-wing identity politics loses sight of the underlying humanism and does indeed become tribal, as each group strives in a relativistic, polarizing, postmodern/hypermodern setting to assert its identity.
