I think in the more traditional view of left and right political thought you're correct, but there seems to be a huge shift away from that towards identity politics. And to say that there aren't extremists on this front on both sides of the aisle is disengenious in my opinion. They feed off one another and ignore the reality that vast majority of the country has no interest in genociding one another or abolishing the nuclear family or any other insane thing either side is always so paranoid about.
I actually think the more traditional Marxist view on identity politics is correct. It's toxic to leftism because it divides the working class.
