We can't change the unfortunate aspects of our nature, all we can do is try to overcome it.
It's not heading in that direction, though. That's my point. It's backfiring. Look at what's happened in the past year.

Your time frame is inadequate - WAY too small I'm talking about years and years of progress that's been in the works since probably before you were born and your reaction is "yeah well it's not working, Trump!"
No Corsi, it is working. It has been working. A step backwards isn't indicative of the whole process crumbling. Name one period of progress in humanity had zero setbacks and no resistance. I'm honestly curious if you can find one because I'm not aware of any.
You haven't presented a remotely plausible solution. How is acting in a tribal fashion working? Because certain "tribes" are pushing towards equal stature. They congregate this way because they are more powerful together and united than they are alone. I could understand your concern if you thought they were looking to "one up" other tribes, but it's about being equal. As I said, acting tribal moves towards the end of tribalism by eliminating the NEED to act that way.
Do you really think the LGBTQ community are gunning to take over the power position and start eliminating the rights of straight people? Because I could see concern if it was over an endless cycle, but it's not.
EDIT: and New Era got it spot on. You can't keep condemning "the left" and their tactics of derision and shame and then go insulting people who do that. You're doing the EXACT same thing you're telling them not to do, while you tell them not to do it. You think it'll backfire for the left, so how does it serve you?
