Sure, and the context of political correctness is that..maybe, we should curtail our use of ethnic slurs, for example. That constantly bitching about how the darkies do this and the darkies do that is a giant red flag.
As before, in asking how you go from assholes to the pc left...how do you derive "we're right, it's in the name, go fuck yourself" from that?
Whether or not it's an expression of evolved traits (in whatever sense you mean that) is as irrelevant to the ideology of the left as it is to the organization of our society. It's also an expression of an evolved trait that I might shit in my neighbors yard. That doesn't make it okay. It's not an ameliorating item. If I'm shitting in my neighbors yard...and then get called out on my shit..saying "but I evolved this way!" would be..less than compelling....
Wouldn't you agree?
Similarly, worrying that you will be lumped in with horrible motherfuckers (who you also think are horrible) fails to stick it's landing when you yourself decide to read and affirm their script. No one is identity warring you or lumping you in..except you.

Is it a deliberate collaboration of hundreds or thousands of different institutions-- banks, government offices, police, school principles, and so on?Not at all..though there are intentional actors of the patriarchy. Open and outright supporters of it..on many different grounds. Peterson, for example.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
