No, it, intersectionality, gender ideology, and identity politics are stoking tribal divisions, distracting from real popular issues, and dividing the working class, which needs solidarity to reach the left’s goals.

   I think they should focus more on progressing policies, and addressing the popular/unpopular social issues rather than hunkering down and defending critical race theory. They should also be educated on psychology, Spiral Dynamics, and ego development before making such limited claims that only critical race theory is the only modal to change the racial systemic issue. There are far more systemic issues than race, like predatory capitalism, social credit, universal health care, systemic economic issues, and so on that might need more attention.

The black pill is the American left since the late 60s have always been the foot soldiers of progressive capitalism. It’s a feature not a bug.

Should we drop Spiral Dynamics then?

No. If anything those things are damaging people’s ability to transition to later stages. Ken Wilber has talked about this.

Wilber has been criticized for having a stick up his ass regarding Green. I don't see why he has all this compassion for stages under Green, treating ethnocentricism and religious dogma as a natural part of evolution, but when it comes to gender bending and exclusive inclusivity, suddenly everything becomes so serious.
