And ends up being collectivist, divisive & restrictive. That doesn't mean the gap in liberalism it spotted wasn't there.

I still feel that it's most important as a society to support individuality & foster unionality & that group identity shouldn't matter.

But if it does matter in reality - if discrimination exists - then attention on this is needed but shldn't require divisive collectivism.

Huh? I'm not even sure how this relates?

It relates to the question how discrimination is discovered, seen as worth fixing, and to the question whose attention is required to fix it

In what way does it relate?
-
How would requiring a group to isolate, resist individuality or shared experience with outgroups help minorities to convince majorities?
