Absolutely, and I've been saying this for a few years now. I only base my conclusion on being a historian that's long studied this, and more importantly, having half my family be jewish that lived through the Holocaust and they've been seeing this happening and are terrified (and obviously conservative and can't understand why so many fake Jews/Jews in name only are so liberal/left, especially given we aren't even particularly Jewish and tend to fall in the secular/"cultural" category]
It's become especially obvious since Trump ran for president. Conservatives and Trump supporters are literally treated as Jews in Nazi Germany. Dehumanized completely, referred to as the worst names, perceived as the worst people responsible for all of society's ills, thus "justifying" any actions against them, because after all, who could argue against "punching a Nazi?" So now we're literally being hunted -- murdered and it's ok, defend ourselves from murder and it's not ok, and we're actually the bad guys. They've been so brainwashed to believe an entire group of people are something that they aren't, and something that's subhuman or inferior. If you genuinely believed someone was evil, you'd justify anything against them.
Now add in being straight, white, male... and you're just screwed. But even if you fall into one of the categories they tend to love (because they think they own those identities), you're still viewed the same way, because you're viewed as an apostate or a heretic to the woke intersectional mob. My brother, for instance, is gay. He was basically celebrated for coming out as gay, but demonized for coming out as conservative/Trump supporter. Same goes if you're black, or any other "protected class," or intersectional and/or marginalized identity.
probs just my white privilege talking (which has put me at a disadvantage every step of the way. Like when I didn't get a job because somebody checked off more "woke" boxes than I did. Was even told I was a finalist because of how qualified and experienced I was. Learned it was an "intersectional" who got it instead of me. Turned out they sucked at their job, was promptly fired, and I did eventually get a call back... but still. Same went for college and grad school... Had to work wayyyy harder and get wayyy better grades to get into the same school, and even still, got way less financial aid because "white male," even though I was poorer than the rest w/ better grades -- worked 2 jobs to put myself through, and had to listen to students working with me complain about their 15 hour workweek [when I was working anywhere from 45-65 hrs a week depending]. And after getting an A in a class, even had a student [white liberal female] tell me I only got an A because I was a white male)
