Yeah, the political and social left can get a little nutso sometimes, and there's always going to be people on the fringe. However, what winds up being the mainstream "left" views tend to be pretty self-correcting when it gets too nutso. To be honest though I try to avoid using "liberal" or "left" labels myself. This is a contrast from the mainstream right that in the last few decades has just seemed to veer so much into Toontown that what's considered "conservative" these days makes absolutely no sense when applying any reasonable definition of the word. They've wound up defining it as someone who looks like Trump, "The Mooch", or Steve Bannon.

I hope that all this stuff that dudes in their 20's and 30's scream about on the internet regarding it being "PC sjw pandering" to cast someone in a role who isn't a white male stays on the internet like pee in a swimming pool. That way, in another 30 years when society is a bit more enlightened, their mixed-ethnicity granddaughters can google them, or look them up on wayback and see what misogynistic/racist assholes they are.
