In the 18th and 19th centuries, scientific and rational thinking became dominant and the old mystical, tribal and religious belief systems came under attack, were suppressed and made taboo.

The aim was to usher in the new age of equality, fairness, diversity, multiculturalism and social justice.

We do need to distinguish healthy and unhealthy identity, healthy masculinity and male chauvinism, healthy authority and exploitative power and so on.
