Modern intersectionality starts from the observation that people ARE treated differently based on their gender, sexuality, and ethnic origin. I don't know who the pope of modern intersectionality is, so I don't know what It dictates. But your formulation, if applied to abolitionists, would read like "Abolitionists dictate that people should be treated very differently based on whether they are currently enslaved"
