That article does a pretty good job of explaining where this stuff is coming from. Approaching everything from a lens of disrupting societal structures based upon historical victimhood doesn't leave much room to search for objective truth.

I am seeing this line of thinking starting to influence education system policy as well.

According to the new education theorists, equal outcomes cannot be achieved by equal treatment. The desired policy, as Ontario's equity plan explains, is "equity of treatment … because it includes acknowledging historical and present systemic discrimination against identified groups and removing barriers, eliminating discrimination and remedying the impact of past discrimination."
