The main purpose of guilt politics is to extract power from your target.

Exactly. That's why no matter what is actually achieved in the way of equality, the victimisation schtick will never end. When you don't have the numbers to overpower, you must find ways to guilt the other group into being complicit with the transfer of power. Unfortunately in present-day PC-ridden America, it works.
