I'll give it a try. At your company's next diversity seminar, why not suggest merit should be prioritized over diversity? Or that affirmative action is regressive in its effects, or that the talk of reparations is so silly as to be dismissed, or that women's unequal pay is due to factors unrelated to sexism, or that Asians are unfairly penalized in universities and the workplace, or that biological sex exists, or that trans women are not real women, or that trans women should not share a bathroom with biological women, or that white men are not oppressors, or that you don't support BLM. Whether or not these ideas are right, you clearly cannot express them. Not in the workplace and if you live in a large city, not to strangers, and sometimes not even to your friends. There's an implicit belief that if you deviate from some of these positions you must be a racist, misogynist, transphobic, alt-right, or a radical. There are ideas you can safely express if they fall on one side of the political spectrum and there are other ideas you have to be hush about even if they are completely reasonable.
