From what I have pieced together from the post on reddit, intersectionality is pretty much the blatant distinction, whether intentional or circumstantial, of inequality in society. This can include race, gender, social class, and dis/ability. Sometimes, intersectionality can be subjective, for example, one might see inequalities between men and women, while one sees no inequalities between the two genders. It could even be objective, for example, one who is paralyzed from the legs down won’t have the ability to do certain kinds of work, while a person with no disabilities would be able to. Intersectionality, to sum it up is just a focus on the contrasts in society that make people different from each other. The concept itself also may affect the way someone lives their life too.
Something I’m curious about though is about the emphasis on intersectionality in today’s age. Why does so many people seem to express their disapproval for inequality, but actually do nothing to stop it? I know this isnt the case for everybody, but some contrasts I’ve seen on a societal scale have been created due to the fact that it didn’t actually exist there in the first place, but instead thought it was there, and such a psychosis lead to its fruition.
