The concept of intersectionality means that it's not really feasible to support one marginalized group to the exclusion of others.

Um... It's looking pretty feasible to me. Not nearly as effective, but that doesn't seem to be stopping a lot of people

    They can try, but it's not a long-term route to success. The problem is that, by bargaining the rights of other marginalized groups away, you'll inevitably reach a point where you have to explain why you specifically deserve rights and others don't to an authority that believes neither deserve any.
