I wouldn't call it propaganda and I think the perception of the prevalence of gender discussion is just because these topics are clicked, which ensures the topic is further expanded. The discussions are interesting though because they are an elegant mix of the most alluring and repelling opinions. But to the topic, this "propaganda" often feels misdirected in its ambition to lessen gender differences as in penalties on job markets and other forms of discrepancies while continuing to separate men and women as if they were complete distinct creatures. The strategy seems strangely analogous to rubbing that mosquito bite in hope it will stop itching.

Different groups have different issues that must be addressed. There are few 'one size fits all' solutions. People do want to be treated as peers and equals, but unfortunately there are intrinsic issues that inhibit that. For example, a person with a black sounding name will, on average, will face more difficulty in getting a job compared to a person with a white sounding name, all else equal. It is not particularly productive to say 'if we treated everyone the same they wouldn't have this issue'.
