Poor snowflake was being berated and insulted by the host straight out of the gate. All she could do was stand her ground and try to try to be polite.

I’ve had liberal college students and adult feminists tell me I’m not really a woman because I’m not a feminist, that I can’t understand women’s issues or STEM bias ... despite being a degreed engineer, regularly taking my daughter’s troop to engineering day at the local college.
This is the evil of identity politics. They assign you an allowed identity based on demographics. Identity politics says “here is the ideology approved for your identity”. It is the merger of tribe and theology, akin to “all Jews must worship Yaweh”; it uses social pressure to enforce ideological conforming and fear of shunning/expulsion from the tribe to keep people in line politically.
By assigning women, blacks, LBGT to Democrats, they can call conservative blacks traitors or not really black, akin to the Muslim apostates worse than an unbeliever and condemned to death. Right now, liberals just routinely threaten death but don’t regularly act upon the threats, but when you can hate on people regularly for their demographics (hatred of whites, men, conservatives) and call for their death, liberal politics has become hate speech ... and their 2 minute hates keep potential dissidents all the more aligned out of fear.
The alignment of ideology and demographic identity also justifies the moral hierarchy, X groups are officially less privileged so they have more moral weight in a disagreement or points in their favor when the state makes a decision. But any liberal is considered better than any conservative, because conservative women and homosexuals and blacks are seen as “having torn up their membership card”. The apostates are evil.
If you call all conservatives evil, then of course their leader becomes the anti-Christ, or in secular parlance, Hitler.
