This paragraph summarizes it well:
"Social justice is always about double standards and motte and bailey arguments. What they say they want is almost never the whole story, it's political brand names and dog whistles. When they say they want games to be political, for instance, they mean THEIR politics, preached as black and white moral lessons to indoctrinate the audience, they don't actually want a realistic depiction of the controversy surrounding the issue, they want to be the unambiguous heroes, and their outgroup strawman villains. When they say they want diversity, they mean a superficial diversity of people with the same views and the same tribal signifiers going through the same heroic victim narratives, with the same distribution of heroes and villains in accordance with the progressive stack. When they say they want to feel included, they mean they want everyone who disagrees with them to get kicked out. When they say they want normalization, they mean they want to be special. In the world of 2077, where you can get a sex change from a vending machine, there's no social currency or even real meaning to being trans. You don't get any points for it and you're not being oppressed."
