I wrote my own comment before seeing yours. I see what you are getting at, but this is all theatre. Straight white Christians still hold the power and the wealth, it just suits the oligarchy to pretend they don’t.
But even if they don’t, the counterculture was a push for freedom and the left may sometimes be incendiary and contains its issues with how we interact with hisrorically prioritized groups, ultimately we’re not saying that people shouldn’t be allowed to be straight or white or Christian. What we’re saying is that straightness, whiteness, and Christianity shouldn’t be prioritized over others. Christians are the harder group to reconcile with as many see the right to oppress as fundamental to their religion, but outside of that nobody minds that Joe believes in Jesus if he’s not making it our problem
