What are the words, concepts, and political correctness that are being enforced by the ( alt light / nouvelle droite ) right?  And once we understand what ideology is actually being defended by those who are critical of the progressive left, what does this kind of cultural war actually serve? To counter any change? To avoid any criticism? To avoid addressing a variety of issues?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_correctness

"  Commentators on the political left in the United States contend that conservatives use the concept of political correctness to downplay and divert attention from substantively discriminatory behavior against disadvantaged groups.[23][26][27] They also argue that the political right enforces its own forms of political correctness to suppress criticism of its favored constituencies and ideologies.[28][29][30] In the United States, the term has played a major role in the "culture war" between liberals and conservatives.[31]  "

Wesley Yang is one of the America’s leading essayists. From “Paper Tigers,” his examination of why Asian-Americans remain underrepresented in leaderships positions, to “The Face of Seung-Hui Cho,” his meditation on the shooter who killed 33 people at Virginia Tech, he has traced America’s shifting understanding of race.

But over the past years, the focus of Yang’s work has subtly shifted. He is now trying to chronicle and explain what he calls the “successor ideology,” the constellation of ideas that seek to usurp liberalism, and which others have called by such names as “wokeness” or “social justice.”

In the latest episode of The Good Fight, Yascha Mounk and Wesley Yang discuss the precise definition of the successor ideology; the need for genuine empathy when exchanging ideas; and what forms of cultural sensitivity are truly inclusive as opposed to alienating
