It's just my anecdotal experience with this kind of mentality that the people looking to enlighten us simple minded folk are also using any questioning or opposition of their enlightenment as an opportunity to shame those people that question or oppose. Some kind of twisted competition I guess.
(not to say I don't support enlightenment of certain issues, I do, but with limits)

That reinforces the patriarchy, so you are told off. You ask, no one told me I should shake hands with my left hand. It's not the job of the oppressed to educate the oppressor.
