Win what exactly?

Win popular approval. In the past it has been shown the popular view to not be the best, what makes you so sure the current trend is perfect and deserves no opposition?

Say you are leader of your tribe and you get bit by a dog. Then you decide all dogs should be removed from your village because dogs caused harm to you.

That's what the current social justice machine looks like to me and I don't think they are right.

Aren't right-wingers already forbidding schools from teaching about racism and sexual orientations in many states?

I don't know honestly. The details matter.. I wouldn't agree to teach children about the infinite genders one could identify as or promote transitioning to people under 18. But have no problems teaching about standard gay acceptance.

I'm not saying the far right are good either but right now you can't say they have as much an impact on the culture as the far left.
