I have a general theory that most of modernism is about perfectly understandable and even sympathetic drives, which are being pursued furtively and thus becoming corrupt and ineffective.

Frequently these corrupted drives are then seized by politicians, which, very naturally, attempt to lock in and nail down the corruption. Who fight tooth and nail to prevent the misunderstanding from resolving.

E.g. many feminists' fathers were in fact complete assholes and deserve the worst. This natural, sympathetic revenge motive is corrupted to [all men are pigs] etc.

[Fuck you dad!] is a lot safer when your dad isn't a monster. Hence the dads who suffer from this corrupted drive are exactly the ones that don't deserve it.
